We were working in a store trying to set the floor the way we want it. I dressed a couple of half mannequins and someone was helping put them on their displays which are way above our heads. He was tall but I thought, "Oh he's not that much taller than I am. I should be able to get them up there too." So I tried to put one up. I lift this thing above my head and warn the other guy helping me to watch out since he told me he didn't want to end up in the emergency room. (For some reason he didn't think I could do it. Smart kid.) I lifted it up but I was just a little too short. I got on my tip-toes and tried to slide it up. Unfortunately, right at that time, I got the worst charlie-horse ever! My calf completely froze in place so much that I could NOT move. I couldn't go up and I couldn't go down. In slow motion, I somehow managed to hand off the mannequin, and fall/sit down without killing myself. Everyone heard the thud and turned around and saw me crying in laughter on the floor. I sat there for quite some time because I still couldn't move my calf. The other guy that had been putting them came over to check on me and everyone kept asking if I was okay. I had to get up or they would suspect something was wrong. I limped up, trying desperately to straighten my leg. Luckily I was able to stand but barely because my abs hurt from laughing so hard. I am awesome.
Oh and did I forget to mention that the guy that was helping us put them up there was the beautiful guy from work that my boss tried to set me up with? SO awesome.
