You Pulled Out WHAT?

Yes I am still alive. Get off my case. I am trying to keep three blogs afloat, and this one gets neglected at times. I did get some good material yesterday, however, and wanted to share it.

So I'm getting my hair cut. My stylist is very young (a good 20 years younger than me), newly married, trying to get pregnant. We get along well. We're talking about girl stuff (like how I - sorry guys - got my period in Mexico and had to find tampons immediately and was using sign language to ask where to buy tampons since I don't speak Spanish. Tampon in sign language is pretty funny or at least the version I made up). So stylist tells me that the esthetician at the salon (one who removes hair by waxing) was doing a Brazilian wax on someone (for those who don't know, the Brazilian is where ALL hair down there is removed, thereby returning the person to how they looked when they were eight years old - you can also opt to leave a "landing strip" in the front if you wanted).

So the waxing starts and the woman who is getting waxed is laying on her stomach. The waxing lady applies the wax and goes to rip it off, not realizing that she has somehow applied some of the wax onto this woman's tampon string. So you guessed it - she rips off the wax and in the process - pulls out the tampon.

I can hear you saying "Ewwww" all the way over here in Longmont. Isn't that just disgusting? I could never be an esthetician because 1) I don't like other people's hair 2) I wouldn't want to remove any one's pubic hair 3) I don't like any else's tampons.

Happy hump day!
