So yesterday didn’t seem like such a bad day for visiting Crissy and I’m glad you all went over to check her out at Arjewtino’s place. You’re so sweet to do that and Crissy hopes she didn’t sound snotty when she said she had trouble with her blog because of all the traffic coming to it. Crissy did not mean to sound snotty, she was just trying to explain why the Queefs couldn’t visit. If you read yesterday’s post you know Crissy is in no position to act snotty.
And if that wasn’t enough for you, here’s more Crissy humiliation for your reading pleasure.
It’s about Gym Class.
Gym class was the bane of Crissy’s existence since first grade when that dullard of a gym teacher, Mr. Kinniberg, tried to make her wear sneakers with her skirt and tights. What kind of an asshole wears sneakers with tights?
Right?
RIGHT?
And so began Crissy’s long history of sitting out during gym class.
You see the problem is Queefs that Crissy is not what you would call coordinated.
I know what you’re thinking: This can’t possibly be true.
You’ve seen Crissy’s Wonderful Dancing…
But it is true, and it made gym class utter torture except for those glorious six weeks in high school when they’d make us do Square Dancing.
Everyone sucked at that and it really leveled the playing field. Or the dance floor or whatever.
In 7th grade, Crissy was late for class and so ran across the gym floor to get to the locker room while everyone was already lined up for attendance, and Crissy slipped in her pink ballet flats and slid on her stomach head first into the locker room door. Legs akimbo, books everywhere.
In 8th grade Crissy and her friend Jennifer got detention for laughing when the gym teacher, his arms loaded with basketballs, fell through a swinging door and onto the gymnasium floor in a cacophony of bouncing balls. He made Jennifer and Crissy stand against the wall while he berated them in front of everyone.
During flag football, Crissy stood as far away from the action as possible and if the ball came anywhere near her, she’d run away from it. Crissy was always the last one picked for the team. In fact, nobody picked her. The teacher assigned her to a team and everyone on it would just be like “oh, man! Nuh-uh! Do we have to? Awcomeon!”
In 9th grade she got hit in the head with a field hockey stick, passed out on the field when she saw the blood run into her eye, and woke up with the gym teacher, the nurse, and her dad (did Crissy mention that her dad taught at her high school?) standing over her with worried looks on their faces. Crissy had to be taken to the hospital for stitches. They got the school nurse and a teacher’s aide to help Crissy change into her regular clothes to go to the hospital. You should have seen how lovely the blood looked all stuck in Crissy’s heavily sprayed 80’s hair. It was lovely.
But in light of all that, one of Crissy’s favorite gym class moments had to be when we were playing volleyball and the ball bounced straight off the side of Crissy’s head, then off her friend Stacy’s fist, and then back into Crissy’s tummy which knocked the wind out of her and landed Crissy flat on her ass.
And yes, it was co-ed volleyball.
The boys saw everything.
And the whole class just stood there snickering as Crissy got up and ran to the locker room and proceeded to cry it out old school with the snot running down her mouth and chin and the uncontrollable sobbing and all of that fancy stuff.
And Miss Teabag, the same-sex-oriented P.E. teacher, followed her into the bathroom and tried very hard to coax poor humiliated Crissy back out onto the field or the rink or the pit or whatever but Crissy wasn’t having it.
Much to Crissy’s surprise she was very understanding and left Crissy the fuck alone. One of the popular jock girls, Amy Eisenberg, even went up to Crissy after class and said “you know, not everybody is good at everything. I’m sorry that happened to you.”
And that meant the world to Crissy that she said that. But Crissy was still humiliated and vowed to miss every gym class from then on.
And she did a decent job of it and even tried this one out on ol’ Miss Teabag:
“I have a phobia involving anything that involves balls flying at my face.”
But she just smiled, clapped Crissy on the shoulder, and said “go get changed.”
