My shower door just shattered into a zillion pieces.
There's glass ALL OVER THE PLACE. including me.
I'm just waiting for the other door to fall off too. the joys of home ownership, man. *shakes fist*
ETA: I was standing in it when it broke, so there was nowhere to step to get out, but on more glass, so my feet are kind of scratched up and my hands (because I tried to CATCH IT *head desk*). But otherwise I'm fine. :) My contractor is sending one of his guys to vacuum it up.

I'm assuming you're okay, if shaken and surrounded by bits of glass?

yeah, this is the hanging kind, which are, I have now found out, really only propped up by the little stopper thing on the bottom, which came loose today. They move(d) very smoothly and were beautiful, but DEATH TRAP OMG.

the guide at the bottom had come loose, so there was nothing to hold it from swinging laterally when I tried to pull it closed (it hangs and rolls from the top). And when it swung, only a little bit of sideways motion was needed to let it slip off the track above and fall.

(and in case you're worried, you are FAR from the only person in the world to try to catch something they really shouldn't)

Thanks! :)

Damn!
Sorry, had to say it.
Sounds like something that would have had my shower water turning a few shades other than clear. You didn't get any slivers in your skin, did you? Do you know what caused it?

Re: Damn!
It was a sliding door that basically fell off its track.
