Great list, LOL.

Ew @ #1, though. I don't even want to imagine...

Thanks, Angelika. Yeah, well, Maxwell has this habit of ignoring my pleas right before we leave and then deciding he neeeeeeeds to go somewhere in the middle of the swamp. Which is fine for him, but not so much for me.

Man, Elle, you are AWESOME! I love all these rules. I should post them somewhere in my house.

I must say, I cannot get away from the "always wear clean panties" rule. Every time I look at my panties, I wonder, "Is this what I want the EMT to see me wearing????" It's totally ingrained.


Thanks, Blue. Yup, it does happen, haven't been without them since that day!!

Commando in JEANS?! Oooh! Ow! Damn, you have a tough- shut up, Les.

I'm one up on the "sick" department, though. Or, maybe that's "several years' up?" I rarely get sick. Maybe it's God's way of making it up to me for Ky going off the breast at 8 months and devastating my ego. Then again, instead of "sick", I get reeeeeaaaaaallllllyyyyyyy tired for weeks, so maybe I'd rather just get the cold over with?

Re: the jeans, it should be mentioned as well that they were the oldest softest fadiest pair I had at the time... not so tough, I assure you LOL.
Re: tiredness, anemic? vitamins? iron?? Not a doctor but I play on on the Internet...

Elle.. This is the best list EVER!! I don't think I have laughed so hard in such a long long time.. esp the breastfeeding comment..LOL..

You are genius!!


Awww Kim, you make me blush.... thanks, chica. I'm just calling them the way I see 'em, squinting of course to de-emphasize the missing eyelashes...

AWESOME list! Hilarious. I can't believe that "always wear underwear" rule was proven, and with such embarrassment. Best line?"It can be that fast, accurate and percussive." HEEEE!



Thanks, JD. Oh, yeah, it was some scene, I still cringe.

This is a fabulous list, Elle! I'm still cringing from the errant eyebrow trimmer! And hey, better no underwear than uh, less than perfectly clean underwear.


The trimmer was sort of a self-fulfilling prophesy. EVERY time I go to use it, I imagine this happening. So one day, yup. It did. I guess my own fault for ignoring the omens...

my husband is a paramedic, and he said the same thing about underwear in an emergency. whatever you've got, he's probably seen worse. haha.


Yeah well, I've learned my lesson...
