person A: While I was walking to class yesterday_comma_ I tripped over some loose bricks and fell down. The ground was wet from rain_comma_ so I was filthy when I got up.
person B: Oh no! So I guess you had to stay that way til you got to go home?
person A: Yeah_comma_ I unfortunately had to go to class that way.  I wasn't physically hurt_comma_ but my ego definitely was.
person B: Well_comma_ I'm glad you didn't hurt yourself at least.
