Tits Ahoy!
I am no different than most other bloggers who attended BlogHer. I have a whole post percolating in my head that I wanted to share with my peeps, to spew forth and regurgitate about the experience I had in between running around nekkid in San Francisco.
I may get to it. The minty magic of that weekend will be carried in my heart always. However, as I was sitting in the airport, waiting to fly back home and enjoying the nice four hour flight delay the airline bestowed upon me, I received a phone call.
It seems there was a drama unfolding in my family as I was whiling away time in a hard plastic chair, powerless to do anything about it.
One of my family members, whom I love deeply and dearly suffered a major medical emergency. A life and death emergency.
Nothing like flying home wondering if the structure of my family was about to change once again, become one person short of a whole family.
It kind of killed the whole BlogHer buzz I had going on.
Needless to say, when I finally arrived home in the dead of the night, I was hung-over, emotionally bankrupt and stressed out.
What’s a girl to do?
Well, if you happen to be named Tanis, and live out in the middle of nowhere, completely surrounded by trees and mystical forest creatures, you get naked.
(Apparently, this is naked week here over at RNM’s place.)
(Now you will never believe me when I say I’m not starting a small nudist colony on my property. Sigh.)
It was a warm afternoon, and the beautiful blue waters of my pool beckoned me. No one is home, the kids are off visiting friends for the week and my darling and beloved Boo took off for a vacation for some quality man bonding time probably involving large quantities of alcoholic beverages and midget porn while banging on bongo drum in the buff.
(Kidding, darling. Remember, you love me!)
I didn’t bother grabbing a towel, figuring my floors probably needed a little water to drip on them since no one bothered mopping them while I was away.
Kicking my jeans out of the way, I grabbed a nice cold beverage and headed out to my pool. My entirely private, no granola crunchy wom-yn allowed pool.
I did what any mature woman standing completely naked in her yard would do. I yelled “COWABUNGA” and cannon-balled in. (Hard to believe I’m at the height of my maturity. Heh.)
I swam a few laps and pretended I was a dolphin in the cool water, while watching a hummingbird buzz overhead by a pot of petunias.
It was exactly what I needed to shed the stress over my sick family member and work through the emotional entanglement I felt from leaving a loved one behind in San Francisco.
There is nothing quite like the feeling of the warm sun beating down on your head as the water laps at your skin. I started to relax. I didn’t want to go back into the house, I just felt like floating around forever.
Because I’m a moron.
I became so relaxed I fell asleep while lounging in the inflatable lounger bobbing along the surface of my pool.
I didn’t wake up when a small truck came rumbling up my drive way.
I didn’t wake up when two grown men, men who are not accustomed to stumbling upon naked women I might add, got out of their trucks and knocked on my door.
I didn’t even wake up when they walked over to the pool to get more than their fair share of an eyeful.
I did wake up when I heard one of them clear their throats.
Which presented somewhat of a problem. I’m floating naked in my pool and two men who aren’t my husband or my father or (gawd forbid, cuz I’d pluck my eyes out and eat them,) my brother or brother-in laws.
How does one react in this situation? How would you react if you were caught with your hooters hanging loose?
It was one of those moments when my heart literally jumped into my throat and I couldn’t swallow. Time slowed down and I never prayed harder for the world to split open and swallow me whole. The world did not cooperate.
So I was left floating floundering and had to make a decision.
I rolled off the lounger and pretended to have some semblance of grace and dignity and curled my self into a little floating ball and excused my appearance to my unexpected guests.
Guests that only swung by in the first place to hear about how my family member was doing. Guest who now will carry the mental image of me looking like a drown, nekkid rat, trying to play it cool. And failing miserable.
My cheeks (I’m gonna guess all of them) were burning bright red with mortification. I still flame at the memory.
We talked momentarily, and I promised to relay well wishes to my family and I inquired about their’s very politely, considering the circumstances but none of us were really paying attention to one another.
They were too busy looking anywhere but my eyes and I was too busy trying to drown myself from embarrassment. Good times. Goooood times.
Thankfully, my guests were less interested in making small talk and more interested in getting away from the crazy naked lady who was bobbing along like a facking apple in a tub on Halloween night.
Like the perfect gentlemen they were, they hot-footed it back into their truck and squealed rubber as they got the hell out of dodge.
Leaving me bobbing alone, still naked, and really wishing for a stiff drink.
Hi. I’m Tanis Miller. I like to be naked. Please call before you show up at my place. Or you may just get more than tea and cookies when you arrive.
Now I’m off to bury my head in the sand and find a freaking swimsuit.
Learn from me peoples. Consider this my public service announcement for the week.
July 24th, 2008 at 1:38 pm
um. holy shit. that’s funny. I’m sorry. I know you probably didn’t find it too funny. LOL
And, can I ask, would I be denied entry to your pool? Clothed or unclothed? b/c, you know, I’m kinda all granola crunchy dude
July 24th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
After I’m done giggling I might have something smart and witty to say, but for now I’ll just say you did better than I.
I would have dove underneath the water coming up long enough to tell them to please go away and come back in 10 years.
For holding your composure, barely, I stand at my feet and applaud you.
Simply,
Loula
July 24th, 2008 at 1:43 pm
One of my very best friends decided to surprise her husband with a little nudity when they were first married. She waited until she heard the garage door open at their very rural home, then jumped out the door stark naked and yelled “surprise”!!
It was her father-in-law.
July 24th, 2008 at 1:47 pm
Oh Please you were the highlight of their day and you know it….lol. PS I love skinny dipping but as the pool is in my parents front yard we have devised the “cough” system. When you come out the door you cough. That way if anybody is in the pool they can either say “Oh Hi” and you know to come up . Or “Oh Shit” and you know to wait. But you make sure somebody awnsers before you come up cause guess what Hubby found out the hard way…sometimes people are actually swimming(and under water) or otherwise attention impaired. It was not a lol……till he went to bed…….
July 24th, 2008 at 1:53 pm
This would totally happen to me, because I would never think anyone would be bold (or rude) enough to come busting in uninvited. Who just walks around behind someone’s house? Sorry for your mortification. I’m sure they really enjoyed it, but it’s gotta burn.
July 24th, 2008 at 1:56 pm
Dammit! I’ve got to remember not to read your blog when I’m drinking Pepsi and sitting in front of piles of paper!!!
Hee, woman. You are funny.
July 24th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
You just need a sign out front. “Please make extra noise while approaching the house, to alert wildlife to your presence.”
July 24th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
Oh no! haha Do you think this was payback for giggling at the tits in SF?
July 24th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
Uh, so, they make these things now. They’re, oh, what’s the word I’m looking for?
GUARD DOGS.
Big. Bitey. Guard Dogs.
Also, pitfalls full of sharpened stakes.
I think you can get both of them at Canadian Tire or The Bay.
July 24th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Skinny dipping rules , getting caught sucks , at least they could have turned around while you ,heck I don’t now got behind the raft or something. Don’t worry those guys won’t do that again but if you have any more unexpected guests you’ll know who else reads your blog hehe
(who else ,other than your faithful thousands :-))
July 24th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
Oh but I have a story that is almost as silly. I HAVE to write a post about it!
In the meantime - I think you came out ahead this time -even with four bkushing cheeks….
July 24th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
*blushing
July 24th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
I. Can’t. Stop. Laughing.
Ohmifreakin’god that is sooooo hilarious!!! As a former card-carrying nudist (yes, there’s a club east of Edmonton but it’s a bitch trying to decide where to carry the card), one night my mother called at 11 p.m. (the family rule was always no calls after 10 p.m.) to inquire why I was on her TV BUCKASS NEKKID?!!
She was laughing so hard and I couldn’t figure out how she knew it was me, because I had a hat and sunglasses on and you couldn’t see any naughty bits on the Shaw cable feature so I figured I was safe from recognition behind my disguise. Mom said she recognized my voice. I think she knew I was a nudist, but never expected to be channel flipping in Calgary, 300 km away, and come across her dear daughter in her birthday suit.
She always used to say I embarassed (pun intended) her when we went shopping but I think that was the be all and end all, again pun intended.
New hubby is not so fond of nudism, something to do with everyone getting to ogle my hotness and they’re not offering up the same value for ogling, so I’m not a member anymore. Can hardly wait till we buy a very treed acreage/quarter section so I can run naked through the woods with bracken in my hair once again.
But I’ll remember this story and keep my barky dog around when I do.
July 24th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
You were probably the highlight of their day … no … their wee … MONTH!!
July 24th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
At first I was soooo jealous of you for a) having a pool and b) being alone enough to be able to swim in the nude…… Now if I am ever lucky enough to have a & b in my life I will NEVER have the courage to act on it!!
My cheeks are red for you!!!
July 24th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
The one and only time I coaxed Joan into doing the deed outside on our deck whilst looking at the stars, unexpected guests showed up. They drove off having watched the two of us grab deck chairs and whatnot backing our selves into the house. They called to apologize for the interruption. Real sincere one to as they both were choking back their laughter.
July 24th, 2008 at 3:02 pm
LOLOL! That is hilarious. I have one but I’ve been too embarrassed to post it but maybe I’ll post it tomorrow in hopes that it’s Friday and people won’t read because they’re off for their weekend hell raising.
Apples in a Halloween tub LMAO! Better hope those boys didn’t want to go “bobbin’” for apples.
preTzel
July 24th, 2008 at 3:03 pm
LOL Oh how embarrassing!!
July 24th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
So was it the “dead of night” or “a warm afternoon”?
July 24th, 2008 at 3:17 pm
[…] ROAD TRIP!!!!!!!!! […]
July 24th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
Loved this post. If you have time go read the one I recently wrote titled “Floating Naked in the Pool”.
http://www.twentyfouratheart.com/twenty_four_at_heart/2008/07/floating-naked-in-the-pool.html
July 24th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
It was the best moment of their lives.
July 24th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
This is the kind of thing that could happen to me - except I would NEVER leave my house naked, not even if I lived alone on the moon…
OK - MAYBE if I lived alone on the moon…
July 24th, 2008 at 3:36 pm
Is it wrong that I’m laughing hysterically. And of course that is only because it happened to you and not me. If it were me…well I’d just crawl under a rock and want to die.
Unless of course they were cute…that might have been a different story. Oops did I just say that out loud ?
July 24th, 2008 at 3:41 pm
Hubby and I decided to take a skinny dip in our very secluded pond, which is also next to the driveway. A neighbor walked down the drive to visit and saw us. I dove behind a floaty and this ornery friend just grinned and chatted for the longest time. Hubby finally got out of the pond but I stayed behind the float. As the neighbor left, he said, “Nice seeing you, Martha.”
July 24th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
I won’t even walk around in my house naked… not even when I’m home alone. I scare myself!
Seriously… who the H stops over unannounced and then proceeds to the back yard????? Have they NO boundaries.
Hope your loved one recovers from the life and death situation.
July 24th, 2008 at 3:48 pm
Oh my gosh, I think I would die!!!
July 24th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
I feel obliged to clarify, the pool is on the side of the house. Not at the back of the house.
But how I wish it were in the back. Or maybe deep in the woods. That way the only ones watching me swim are the moose and the deer.
July 24th, 2008 at 3:55 pm
WOAH!! That Sucks!
Why did they feel inclined to enter without permission? Were they cute atleast? hahaha
July 24th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Sorry about your family member; I hope things are improving.
Your ‘girls’ really lived in the last few days, huh?
July 24th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
Oh God, T. Only you, dear. Only you.
I’m sorry about the family thing. If you need an ear…you know where to find mine.
July 24th, 2008 at 5:03 pm
You big nekkid goofball.
(Hope your family is ok.)
July 24th, 2008 at 5:05 pm
Honestly? Even if someone else was telling the story (so as not to have your writing style as a hint), my first guess for the protagonist would have been you.
Take that as you will.
July 24th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
It could have been worse… you could have sun burned those boobs of yours!
AT least one cleared his throat at one point…. what ever happened to “hollering” at your neighbor, BEFORE you walk around the house?
LOL
July 24th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
Now I wish I had a pool. I would love to be able to float around naked. I am not that shy…and think it would be kind of exciting to be caught like that. I hope that that experience does not make you wear clothes more. Naked is good! Rule to live by.
July 24th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
Shiiiiit that is funny…I’m gettin’ me one of them pools. I always wanted to hang out naked in my yard. Oh yeah, I guess I’m a new stalker. I found you through Moosh in Indy. I’m new to this blogging world so if I break any rules kindly let me know.
July 24th, 2008 at 5:43 pm
You handled your Blogher buzzkill a hell of a lot better than I handled mine last year.
We’ve got a jacuzzi in the new house and hubs doesn’t believe I’ll get nekkid to go in it, even if we are going to be living out in the woods. I’ll show him. You’ll be my inspiration.
July 24th, 2008 at 5:44 pm
Now this has happened before to you so now I’m inclined to believe your more like a passive/agressive flasher!!! If you ever do get a swimsuit post the pic as proof! I don’t think you’ll “get around” to gettin one!
July 24th, 2008 at 5:45 pm
Yea yea yea… all the running around nekkid at blogher has turned you into an exhibitionist. Admit it. Rejoice in it. And invite me!
July 24th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
It’s a good thing I’ve got gas in the car, because I know what I’m doing this week.
July 24th, 2008 at 6:04 pm
Oh my dear I am sure you made their year. They probably talked about you the rest of the day and well into the night.
July 24th, 2008 at 6:21 pm
I voted that I would blog about it. Because I totally would. Am also really thankful at the moment that I do not have a pool.
July 24th, 2008 at 6:22 pm
Only you my friend. Only you. Your bound to start having paparazzi show up at your place if you keep this up. Between these guys and your son’s friend, your hawt image is permanently burnt into the minds of half the men in your twon.
But really *this* is just one of the many reasons we love ya.
Looking forward to the next installment of Naked Week!
July 24th, 2008 at 6:30 pm
is it nekkid week here? seems to be becoming a theme….
sorry about your family member hope everything works out.
July 24th, 2008 at 6:32 pm
Did you remember to put sunblock on your nipples this time?
July 24th, 2008 at 7:05 pm
That is just too freakin’ funny!
July 24th, 2008 at 7:16 pm
Well obviously they were enjoying the view or they would have snuck back around the house and made some noise coming back. I just hope their phones don’t have cameras. Or we might be seeing Naked Tanis all over the place. Like a giant billboard or something.
July 24th, 2008 at 7:18 pm
Naked Tanis FTW.
July 24th, 2008 at 7:39 pm
Of all the people for this to happen to… I’m guessing you are the one to handle it - after you HAD just been bathing naked in front of Strangers while at BlogHer… there seems to be a theme actually!!!
And so… how IS your family member?? Hoping all is well.
BB
July 24th, 2008 at 8:37 pm
My husband is a big nudie swimmer. I love your blog.
July 24th, 2008 at 8:57 pm
I’m SO glad I stopped by for this VERY IMPORTANT public service announcement. Indeed, that’s why I come here — for the very important public service announcements. And, to think, I was JUST going to run through the sprinkler naked in my backyard, under the MOOOON. REALLY good thing I stopped by here first….
July 24th, 2008 at 9:08 pm
This reminds me of something that happened to me yesterday.
I was home alone and I misplaced my cell phone. I decided to take a shower and find it afterwards. So I get out and start looking. Still in a towel, I walked outside to see if I left it in my car. It wasn’t there. I went to walk back into my house and The door was locked. Being home alone, I had locked all of them before I showered. All my keys were in the house. So, I went to one of the front windows- one that was broken. in the middle of my attempt at breaking in, i cut my finger on the glass. so, i start crying. and then a guy from our power company comes up the driveway and I have to haul butt to get away from being seen wearing nothing but a towel, sobbing and bleeding, trying to break into my own house.
eventually i got in but it was a hell of a day.
=D Hope you’re doing well.
July 24th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
This story (though very sad about the family member crisis) reminds me so much of one of my husband’s most embarrassing moments. On the night of the 1994 Northridge earthquake he decided for the first time to sleep in only his underwear. Naturally, his house, 3 miles from the epicenter was demolished and he escaped his house in nothing but his underwear. And since they couldn’t get back into the house, he had to stay in just that for a while. He was 12. And had siblings and neighbors.
It is an important public service announcement. I subsequently always keep clothes nearby.
July 24th, 2008 at 11:24 pm
Just wanted to point out YET AGAIN that there are no naked photos on this post. I did read this one, however, because with the title I thought it also might be about chocolate chip cookies. Which I love.
July 25th, 2008 at 1:20 am
At least your girls got you comfortable with the whole idea in SF.
The real test is when you have to see these guys again.
Small towns… Small towns.
July 25th, 2008 at 2:10 am
Damn girl, we so need to get together. Cause I am constantly revealing my arse unintentionally to acquaintances.
We could make it like a sport or something.
But you would beat me in the hotness…
July 25th, 2008 at 5:36 am
Let me just say, as one who has been coitus interruptus due to stupid people who “drop by” for whatever asinine reason, I feel your pain.
The latest for me was being back in the bedroom with the Redneck “catching up” (or what ever euphemism you want to call it. My kids call it “Mommy and Daddy time”) and the heater guy (who disappeared after ripping out our wall heater and dumping it in the front yard) shows up…without calling, without anything.
The kids let him in.
AND told him we were in the bedroom…..having “Mommy and Daddy time”.
I wanted to die.
Those men were very lucky to get an eyeful. Just sayin’.
July 25th, 2008 at 5:38 am
Oh, and I’m totally bummed that you were JUST in SF and I’ll be there next Wednesday for a writer’s conference. Too bad they weren’t at the same time. I’d have made a supreme effort to meet you.
And I hope your family member is doing okay.
July 25th, 2008 at 5:47 am
Oh god.
July 25th, 2008 at 7:32 am
Tanis, you do tickle my heart!
What kinda visitor thinks cruising around the back of the house is the polite thing to do? Once you’ve crossed the front fenceline anything is fair game. Rock on with the nekkid! If my house wasn’t within spitting distance to my neighbors, I might consider it.
July 25th, 2008 at 7:55 am
Hope all is going well with your family member.
I am laughing so hard *with* you, not at you! See this is reason #643 on why not to have a pool.
July 25th, 2008 at 8:34 am
Could I love you more?
I think not.
Hope your family member is ok.
July 25th, 2008 at 9:03 am
I hope your family situation is improving. I’ll keep you in my thoughts.
What a great way to spend your weekend; naked and in the smooth feel of water. That’ll teach them to call before showing up.
July 25th, 2008 at 9:13 am
Think of it this way. You probably did those guys a public service. They’ll have a story to tell at the bars for years to come.
I hope things improve for your family member.
July 25th, 2008 at 9:40 am
Never a dull moment on this blog!
ha
excellent writing BTW
July 25th, 2008 at 10:10 am
Okay, what kind of people CLEAR THEIR THROATS and wake up the sleeping naked woman? That is the point at which they should snicker and run back to their truck, no?
That said, I hope your family member is okay.
And it was such a pleasure seeing you again at BlogHer. I never feel like I get to spend enough time with you, though. And you’re too, too gorgeous for words. Mwah.
July 25th, 2008 at 10:55 am
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!! I needed that laugh today!
July 25th, 2008 at 11:00 am
Naked at BlogHer, naked at home, but there are still a whole lotta naked venues for you to explore.
July 25th, 2008 at 11:24 am
I was wandering casually around my kitchen one day, sans clothes, and looked up…. to see my father-in-law standing at the front door in UTTER HORROR.
WE have never spoken of this.
July 25th, 2008 at 1:23 pm
Hope you didn’t burn your nips!
July 25th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
OMG, I am ROTFL my (non-naked) arse off!!!!!! That is the funniest thing EVER!!!! And you were so poised!
July 25th, 2008 at 5:24 pm
If they were really gentlemen, they would have called first! And I can’t decide which one to vote for! I kinda swing toward the whole Mrs. Robinson let it all hang out and watch them squirm thing.
July 25th, 2008 at 7:38 pm
But, aren’t you sunburned too? In awful places.
July 25th, 2008 at 7:42 pm
what type of dog is your dog?
(T, baby, my youngest daughter was sitting behind me when I clicked over your way. She said ‘is dat appropriate for me?’ And then she saw the pic of Nixon. Hence teh comment. then she saw the cartoon of the half nekkid people.
she wrote the comment under my instruction. thanks hon…..
July 25th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Oh the shame! The absolute horror. Hopefully those men were people that you will never have to lay your eyes on again? Maybe?
July 25th, 2008 at 8:45 pm
I bet those guys show up every day for the rest of your life. If they were there to fix the cable I bet the cable guys fight over who gets to go out to see you. Think of it this way…you’ll get excellent service.
July 25th, 2008 at 10:15 pm
Those guys will be home tonight talking about “That chick with the tits”! And YOU will be THAT chick.
I got your email and I’m working to answer it back. But know you have a very special place in my heart.
July 25th, 2008 at 10:17 pm
Holy crap! You live the total rock star life. I always thought Canadians were no fun. You, proved me wrong. Rock on with your naked self.
July 25th, 2008 at 11:09 pm
Okay - I totally used to lose the clothes (well, I kept my panties - I HATE that word! - on since I didn’t live in the woods and I did have neighbours and it was usually in the middle of the day) and jump into our family’s pool when my parents were out of town and no one was home. I imagine a neighbour or two might have seen me, but I didn’t care. I was too lazy to go inside and get changed. I was hot and jumping in the pool felt about as refreshing and freeing as anything.
If only I had a pool now…
I am in Canada too.
July 26th, 2008 at 7:55 am
My BIL saw my nipple during a swimsuit malfunction this summer. I feel your pain!
July 26th, 2008 at 1:20 pm
Too funny! Reminds me of my own embarrassing topless sunning story. My pool is pretty private with surrounding trees. The neighbor to the left can see into my yard from their bedroom deck but I felt safe to get naked since it’s a deck they rarely use. That was until my housekeeper started working for them and she informed me that there are a pair of binoculars hidden behind the drapes of their bedroom window. Now I’m left wondering if the neighbor is just bird watching or boob watching.
July 26th, 2008 at 1:49 pm
That is some of the funniest reading I have had in a long while. That being said I hope your family member is doing well and recovering quickly.
My dad told me about he and his wife hot-tubbing nekkid in the winter and how he was afraid he was going to slip on the ice and get stuck on his deck like a tongue to a frozen telephone pole and how the fire department would have to come and unstick him….yeah how’s that for a mental picture.
July 26th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
You are too funny Tanis. How do these things happen to you?! I hope your family member has or will recover.
July 26th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
But you weren’t REALLY naked were you? Now THAT would have been even more interesting. Himself and I tend to do the naked swimming thing at night. We were only sprung once by his teenage son coming home through the back gate after a big night out…..hopefully the alcohol worked its magic on his memory.
July 26th, 2008 at 8:20 pm
Oh my god this is my first time here and you hve me cracking up. I wish I could be like that but I live in a townhouse in a really crowded area, and there’s just nowhere to get caught nekkid. Probably for the best, but you do make it sound fun. I hope everything goes well with your family member.
July 27th, 2008 at 12:10 am
oh, good lord.
July 27th, 2008 at 9:48 am
Oh my gosh. I don’t know how I would have handled that situation. The embarrassment would have killed me.
July 27th, 2008 at 6:02 pm
It’s probably gross and not right, but, umm, ah hell, here goes, I saw you at BlogHer, I bet it would have been a mighty stiff drink.
July 27th, 2008 at 10:34 pm
Only you T, only you.
Thanks love, I needed the laugh
July 28th, 2008 at 7:16 am
How embarassing!!! Thanks for the giggle…
I found you through the article on bloggers in the Calgary Herald today.
July 28th, 2008 at 7:50 am
I need to know - did you get all-over sunburn? ;o)
July 28th, 2008 at 7:59 am
Definitely worse than the steaming August day I was strutting around my non-air-conditioned third story apartment with floor to window ceilings in no underwear and skimpy lingerie to avoid dying of heat stroke and noticed the chin and torso of the man on a ladder on the other side of my window painting the house and window frames.
Or all the times a landlord or stray policeman or UPS guy shows up when I am mid-flu, or unshowered, unbrushed, and braless.
I would have laughed so hard!

Lord, Bossy doesn’t have to learn from you: She would never let her husband see her naked, let alone her pool. Wait - Bossy doesn’t have a pool…
Hope your family member is healing…

Tanis, you crack me up! I found by way of Danny… He said you were funny. That is a bit of an understatement!
I hope all is well with your family member!
If you are ever in Calgary give me a call and we can meet for coffee.

I was perusing around blogland today and stumbled across this post. TOO FRIGGIN’ FUNNY! Glad I came here cause I sure needed that laugh. Looking forward revisiting your blog…

That has to be one of the funniest things I’ve read in a long time. I would have been completely mortified. I’m sure I would not have been able to move fast enough.
Hope your family member is doing okay.

Sort of reminds me of when I got an aerial picture of our hause left at the front door by someone trying to sell it to me. My first thought was, “I’m glad I didn’t pick that day to dance naked in the back yard!”

I found your site on technorati and read a few of your other posts. Keep up the good work. I just added your RSS feed to my Google News Reader. Looking forward to reading more from you down the road!

I just discovered your blog and immediately subscribed in Google Reader after I read this hilarious, laugh-out-loud post. Bravo.
