Embarrassing story (50-100 words):  After walking too much for one day, I decided to cut across the expressway on the way back to the school to save time and energy.  We made it across but had to climb a fence.  I made it up okay but on the way down I ended up ripping off a piece of the bum of my pants on the fence.  It was no good; they were Parasuco’s.
