Cake on the floor

Well tonight I thought it was time to write a little something.
Today was my wonderful mothers 64th birthday and we needed to go and buy her a cake. I get a black forest cake put it in the cart, then go help David to pick out some flowers for our mum. We bump into some people we know and I work with, then a bit later I bash into more people I know... Now the store is full of people.......... so you know what is going to happen.
I go into line, pick up the cake ( by the top) and it drops from my fingers, trying to catch the cake as it falls to the ground my attempt becomes failure.. I'm covered in cake... the floor is covered in cake... my friends and co-workers are laughing.... strangers are smirking.
I can never seem to do a small act without gaining a crowed.
In the end I didn't have to pay for the cake and we got another one for our mother to enjoy.
