TIFU trying to save a butterfly

yes you read that right. little bit of background: i walk a dog every week and her owners refuse to accept that she is reactive. i’ve been sitting/walking this family for over a year, dog one is a friendly guy but dog two is not like her brother and her parents can’t really accept it and just think she “doesn’t know how to play”. i found a butterfly on the sidewalk who couldn’t fly and i was like “ omg i know how to help!!!” because i am nature obsessed and can’t even kill a spider. the route i was taking passed my house so i figured id go and grab a plate of sugar water for the butterfly. i had my sister hold onto her when i ran inside, came back out and had my sister hand her off to me, and at the same time the dog saw another dog walking down the street and lunged so since i wasn’t expecting it/wasn’t prepared to hold her back, i slipped and cut my hand on cinder blocks.

currently waiting on my stitches at urgent care. they think ill only need a couple but it’s my dominant hand and i work as a server/food runner so i don’t know how ill be able to work as now i cant even do my makeup/hair by myself for at least a week🫠 hopefully this incident will finally make her parents realize that she is reactive and not just awkward. but hey, i got $40 instead of $20 bc she felt horrible!

TL;DR i was grabbing sugar water for a butterfly and the reactive dog i was walking saw another dog and lunged when i didn’t expect it, resulting in me cutting open my hand, needing stitches

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
