because it can always get worse

You know that i like the Nikiverse to be a place of joy, a learning place, a friendly place, a place where you can frankly point and laugh at me.

As you gaze at the picture to the right, can you even imagine what the story might be behind it?
One of the laws in the Nikiverse is that we never, ever, ever say But at least it can't get any worse, because people, it can always, always get worse and why oh why would you tempt the fates like that?.
Over the weekend i had a terrible stomach thing. I'm not sure if it was food poisoning or a virus or a mutant alien baby trying to claw its way out. Whatever it was, it was awful. Wretchedly awful.
Around 2 or 3 am Sunday i was spending time really getting to know my beautiful black and white tile floor, curled up in wracking pain. I knelt up suddenly to pray to the porcelain goddess and the entire toilet seat/lid assembly ripped off in my hands. Not expecting that (who would be expecting that?), it then came crashing down on my head as i started yarfing.
Yep.
But the great thing about this type of it can always get worse story is that by the next day it is already funny.
Don't think this is a funny story?
Say this out loud:
The toilet seat ripped off and hit me in the head while i was throwing up.
That's freaking hilarious people.
Almost as funny as washing your remote.
