Being a Bear

My friend Carol gave me this at our Towne Singers rehearsal this week. Enjoy:

In this life I'm a woman. In my next life, I'd like to come back as a bear. When you're a bear, you get to hibernate. You do nothing but sleep for six months. I could deal with that.

Before you hibernate, you're supposed to eat yourself stupid. I could deal with that too.

When you're a girl bear, you birth your children (who are the size of walnuts) while you're sleeping and wake to partially grown, cute, cuddly cubs. I could definitely deal with that.

If you're mama bear, everyone knows you mean business. You swat anyone who bothers your cubs. If your cubs get out of line, you swat them too. I could deal with that.

If you're a bear, your mate EXPECTS you to wake up growling. He EXPECTS that you will have hairy legs and excess body fat.

Yup, gonna be a bear!

I thought that was very funny. Anyway, random question here. If your baby pees in the bath water, do you take him out and change the water before continuing?

What's a little baby pee anyway? A good bar of soap will kill anything.

I'm with grandpatty.
On the other hand, I have chosen to eradicate that visual and thought from my brain. Forever.

Hey, we share the same blog template, the cool tic-tac green.
I say that makes us friend of some kind :)
