And Then It Happened.

I just read a post over at Best of Fates.  I recently discovered her.  Can I say she's hilarious?

Anyway, Megan posted pictures of her jumping on a big platform thingy...

And she was mocking herself about falling down.  Isn't it always the MOST fun to laugh at people who are laughing at themselves?

Anyway, all I could think of was "Wow.  I really need to pee.  If I was jumping up and down right now, I'd totally pee my pants."

And then I remembered that today at work I was giving a puny cough on my way to the break room...One of my coworkers joked about it.  I said, "Well, I've needed to go pee for like two hours and finally have time, so I don't dare cough too hard."

And then I remembered that this affliction is all my sister's fault.  Many many moons ago before the time of my child bearing, Dawn said, "Stop it!  You're making me laugh so hard, I'm going to wet my pants!"  And I laughed because I had heard that saying but never really understood that it was a real thing.  Nor did I understand that my sister could suffer from such a horrific malady.

And then she said, "Just wait until you have kids.  I am so going to laugh at you."

And then she did.

Darn, now I have to go.

Yeah, they never told us about THAT in high school. Pity, because a lot of girls at my school became pregnant as teenagers and frankly, I suspect the threat of uncertain bladder control would have been a much more effective scare tactic than the threat of an STD!

Emily Sue you are so right! Why haven't we thought of that?

Growing up I thought this was the grossest thing I had ever heard of. As if childbirth isn't hard enough now we all have to wet our pants the rest of our lives?

I have been trying out some different work outs and I was telling my friend about one that isn't dancing at all. It's a lot of jumping! And I said, "I can JUMP!" And she said, "you can jump?" And I said, "I mean, I know HOW to jump. I do have to be careful. And do my kegels."
Oh, yes. Life is weird in this stage of life!

Aw, thank you!

And that isn't the reason I plan on adopting... but I think it'll be a lovely side effect.

Also? I'm totally envious of you and your whole having-a-sibling-thing. Serious jealousy issues here.
