Yes I Really Did This....

Because Alaskan Amy says people sometimes aren't REAL in their posts about their lives, and she's right, and because my friend Cathy from Tennessee insisted I tell this one, I'm going to be both real and brave and tell about my latest most embarrassing moment. Because my blood pressure medicine has a diuretic in it, by the time I make the 40 minute commute to work in the mornings, I usually have to GO immediately on arriving. Unfortunately, one morning last week, I had several people there early waiting for me and each of them needed something NOW, so my bathroom break had to wait. Well by the time I realized I couldn't wait anymore, and rushed back to the bathroom, I had a small spot that had escaped on the underpants. I dried them as best I could, but then the thought occurred to me that I sure didn't want to go around smelling like pee all day. I looked around and spied some citrus air freshener and sprayed those panties good. A few minutes later, at my desk, my crotch felt like I had caught fire, and I realized maybe the air freshener was not such a great idea. I hurried back to the bathroom and splashed water like I was dying, but it didn't seem to help. I ended up throwing away the underwear and going au naturale under my slacks all day, coated with some butt salve I found in our med supply room that we use on older patients. This is the stuff in life that happens that is much funnier than anything one can make up.
