Best snippets of recent conversations:
Talking with my friend about her recent very-long bike ride down in Southern Illinois:
“Yeah, well after 33 miles on my bike my butt hurts. My butt and my bike seat need to have a conversation about that.”
Talking to the barista through the drive-up window during torrential rains:
“Illinois is one big bowl of nasty.”
Talking with Mallory after she had a job interview during yesterday’s flash flood storm:
“So we had to go in the basement toward the end of the interview because of the tornado.”
Later on I was discussing this with Mallory’s boyfriend by telling him that I hadn’t even known we had a tornado in the morning.
“Kelly. We didn’t. What’s today? It’s the first Tuesday of the month. It was at 10 am.”
“Oh, Jeebus. She hid out during the MONTHLY DRILL? We are going to crucify her for doing that.”
After that Mallory tried defending her position to me.
“What was I supposed to do? Everyone else went to the basement! I had to do it!”
“That’s true. If you had refused you wouldn’t want them to write on your interview sheet ‘Hmmm…does not exercise caution. MAY NOT WANT TO HIRE THIS ONE.’”
Talking with some girlfriends:
Finally, I was enjoying some excellent beverages with some girlfriends and the Inevitable Vajayjay Talk came up as we discussed ob/gyn visits, Brazilian waxes, and sex. When we started to do our own Vagina Monologues one of them said:
“My vagina is a book. Read by a lot, but never quite on the bestseller list, ya know? In fact, it’s getting to the point where no one is reading it anymore. It’s just getting all dusty and the jacket’s worn down.”

Poor Mallory that is going to be hard to live down. Thankfully my mother does not have a blog.
Great vjayjay quote. Now I am pondering what my vjayjay is like. Is there always a “caulk” single ad next to a vjayjay post?

Mocha,
I’m having D and C surgery on Monday to clear up my endometriosis and eliminate some pesky polyps, hopefully to pave the way to pregnancy.
My favorite Vajayjay quote is from my indian gyno. When giving my post-op advice she quipped, “…and nothing in the wagina for two weeks.”

although i’ve taught them the proper terminology, this gets me thinking about how high-larious it would be to get my 6 year-olds to say va-jay-jay. heck, it’d be even funnier if the little man (2 years-old) said it. when the ladies were 3ish, they used to say ‘giner’ instead of vagina. funny ladies.

I prefer the kind you sneak a flashlight under the covers to read in the middle of the night, when everyone’s supposed to be asleep.
And yes, apparently I’m 13 years old again.

Then there’s always the comparison of the vajayjay to a mini van called the “vangina” because “when you open it up kids fall out.”

Now that reminds me of one reason I left teaching 6th grade for 4th: I don’t have to teach sex ed any more! I don’t have to explain what a vjayjay is, and I don’t have to look at 12-yr-old girls and wonder why, oh why, they know what a BJ is and have nicknames for it?!

How have you been Miss Mocha!? It’s been a while… of course it’s been a while since I’ve blogged.
Creativity and wit elude me at the moment about what to do with a response here. I’m sure you can imagine what a 24 year old guy would say about reading books. The analogy is outstanding though, and clever.

For some reason, an old quote just popped in my head:
Outside of a dog, books are man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read. - Groucho Marx
Love the vangina comment..

The book/vajayjay quote - too funny! Thanks for your comment- I didn’t correct the nurse who told me my brother had “ammonia” because it’s a little scary, the idea of pissing off the people who are taking care of your loved one in the hospital, even/especially if they don’t seem too bright. Would love to know how other people would have handled this…

Hey,
Sorry,
I have been SO busy with State tests and finishing up the semester, I’ve neglected my blog…I know…so sad.
Can’t they distinguish a drill from the real thing? lol
