Radio stations routinely pay money to people so that they will
tell their most embarrassing stories on the air. Here is the
what is believed to be a story of a "lucky" winner of one of
these contests.
I was due later that week for an appointment with the
gynecologist, when early one morning I received a call from his
office saying that I had been rescheduled for early that morning
at 9:30 AM. I had just packed everyone off to work and school
and it was around 8:45 already.
The trip to his office usually took about 35 minutes so I didn't
have any time to spare. As most women do, I'm sure, I like to
take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits,
but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort.
So I rushed upstairs, threw off my dressing gown, wet the
washcloth and gave myself a wash in "that area" in front of the
sink, taking extra care to make sure that I was presentable.
I threw the washcloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes,
hopped in the car and raced to my appointment.
I was in the waiting room only a few minutes when he called me
in.
Knowing the procedure, as I am sure all women do, I hopped up on
the table, looked over at the other side of the room and
pretended I was in Hawaii or some other place a million miles
away from here. I was a little surprised when he said, "My... we
have taken a little extra effort this morning, haven't we?" but I
didn't respond. The appointment over, I heaved a sigh of relief
and went home. The rest of the day went normal, some shopping,
cleaning and the evening meal, etc.
At 8:30 that evening my 14 year old daughter was getting ready
for a school dance, when she called down from the bathroom,
"Mom... where's my washcloth?"
I told her to get another from the cabinet. She called back,
"No, I need the one that was here by the sink. It had all my
glitter and sparkles in it."
