Awkward Family Story: Dessert Anyone?

“When I was 12, I got my first period. I was so embarrassed and had to work to get the nerve to confide in my mother. When I told her, she seemed very excited and oddly proud of me. Later on that day, I joined my mom, dad and younger brother at the dinner table only to be greeted with a cake that was decorated with the words ‘Congrats on your 1st Period.’ That’s right, my mom had baked a celebratory menstruation cake.”

Hi everyone,

We could not be more excited about Jack’s upcoming 1st birthday and the fact that he gets to share it with his entire family both near and far. This many people may be somewhat overwhelming for Jack in the beginning so my advice to everyone is to not over-stimulate him but instead give him a chance to get used to all the excitement.

Awkward…

Ok so I was with a couple of my friends and we were in the bathroom. We’re talking between the stalls like girls do, and we hear this voice. “Girls, can you help me?” I came out of the stall and while washing my hands, asked what the problem was. The lady in the end stall says, “I need help. I went to the bathroom and now I need help. Can you give me some paper towels with warm water and soap?” As I’m getting the paper towels for her, I hear the stall door open. Yep. There she stands, pants around her ankles, shirt up over the boobs. My friends and I were in shock!! I tried to hand her the paper towels so I could get the heck out of there and she says, “No, I need YOU to wipe it.”. Now, I was a pre-med student at the time, so I was trying to be level headed and calm. I explained to the lady that I could not do that for her; that it was unsafe for her AND for me. She didn’t get it. She simply said that she couldn’t reach and needed help. She was a bigger woman, in case you haven’t guessed. By this time a clerk came in and the lady asked HER to do it. The clerk said that her job description did not include wiping asses. Then we tried to locate her family members, but she said they had dropped her off and were coming back to pick her up later. Once we convinced her that we were NOT going to wipe her ass, she just says, “Well can you check to see if I got it all?” She then proceeded to turn around to show us her ass. At this point, we were done and walked out without looking back. Unbelievable!
