Describing something that made you laugh

I'm going to talk about a funny thing that happened to me a couple of weeks
ago. I think it was a Saturday morning, and I was sitting
having a coffee in a
café near where I live. I was on my own so I decided to read the newspaper
while drinking my coffee. I must have been quite engrossed in what I was
reading because
the time passed quickly, and I suddenly realised that I needed
to get going. What I didn't realise was that I had been sitting with my legs
crossed, and one of my legs had completely gone to sleep. As I stood up to
leave the café, I quickly became aware that my left leg was 'dead', but it was
too late; I started to fall. I thought I could catch
myself on the table, but the
table tipped over and I fell to the floor in front of everyone in the café! I can
remember being on my knees in the middle of the café, looking up at the staff
and customers around me. I felt really embarrassed
and I expected the other
people to find it funny, but to my surprise nobody was laughing. They were all
worried that something really bad had happened to me! As I got up from the
floor, I had to explain to the whole café that I was fine. I was embarrassed at
the time, but I laughed about it later!
