A Leap Over the Mountain

Call me whatever hero title you want, but this morning's biggest villain was a runaway charging cable curled across the floor! I spotted a towering stack of hardcover books by the shelf and figured that high ground had my name on it. I sprinted across the carpet, took a mighty leap over the black wire, and totally misjudged the landing. My rigid plastic boots skidded across a shiny bookmark, sending me sliding right under the lowest shelf! Caught myself against a wooden bracket just in time. Awkward recovery? Sure. Did I stick the landing anyway? Absolutely.
