OMG, hairy lips and hairy nipples and pregnant at recess! I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes. What made it even funnier is that you were telling these stories with what sounded like a even, level voice. I love the nurse stories. That is the funniest thing I have heard in a while. Thanks! :-)
Just got an ipod for Christmas and downloaded a bunch of knitting podcasts. I finally got to yours and when the first one of them started I thought "Oh great, this is a Southern Lady and we're all in for a manners lesson or something. So prissy & dainty, she sounds like she's the epitome of 'Southern Charm'. I don't know how long I can listen..." Imagine my surprise (and the surprise of the other motorists) as I was HOWLING out the window with laughter and had to pull over with the Flashers going "Hazard! Hazard!" as I was laughing so darn hard that you gave me the hiccups. I thought... "No, she couldn't have possibly have said that---it was all in a nice even voice like nothing out of the ordinary", then I rewound the whole episode and listened again. I was laughing so hard, I was drooling & spitting.
It is all your fault that it took me 3 hours to get home from work and I only live 45 minutes away.
I'm sure the other commuters are still talking about me pounding the steering wheel and screaming & crying. Finally, I just doubled over on the seat, sobbing with laughter, little earbuds squished in my ears like life support to my head.
You have forever changed my opinion of Southern Ladies. I think I like you....

I CANNOT BELIEVE that you frogged your tilted duster. I about had a heart attack when I heard you confirm the deed! The hairy nipple story was even funnier the second time hearing it. With you Dawn, there is never a second of boredom!
