Anyone who’s known me for more than sixty seconds knows that I am a major, major klutz. Yesterday was no exception. I was at the Tanger Outlets with two shopping bags filled with stuff, plus my purse. I needed to use the restroom, so I went into the stall, and hung everything on the door — purse last.
