Toilets and the Positions of Classical Ballet (and a few others just because no one actually does the positions of ballet on the toilet)
In honor of my two extremely close and personal friends, I would like to share a few ballet positions of my very own. But since I don't have access to herds of cows or a cooperative dog, I figured I'd pick something everyone could relate to, particularly since we've been battling one hell of a stomach flu for the last week.
The toilet*.
The "Hoping for the Best" position
But "Prepared for the Worst."
The "Here Comes an 8 Pounder" Position
The "Mommy's Busy Leave Me the Hell Alone" Position
The "15 Years and a Shit-Ton of My Parent's Money on Ballet Lessons Got Me Something" Position
The "Now I'm Just Showing Off" Position
The "Don't Bother Me, Mommy is Doing Her Important Reading of the Day" Position
The "Phew. Glad That's All Over" Position.
*I was not actually using the toilet at the time this photo was taken. I enjoy good potty humor, but not when it actually involves we using the potty.
The stool shot was my favorite. And I'm totally talking about the plastic stool.

Either your toilet is very close to the bathtub, or you have some long legs, girl! Funny stuff...love the showing off pose.

I think the "Mommy's Busy Leave Me the Hell Alone" position is the way to, um,
go.

The question is did you get your toes done when you considered writing this post or do you always have a pedi in place? Is that an OPI color? I like it.

lol- love it.
What color are your toes??

Loved the extra showing off shot... we also have the same shower curtain... except mine is maroon/red. I'm sure you care. In any case, now every time I am in the bathroom and see that shower curtain, I'll be thinking of your feet.

You're bound to feel better after all that sitting! :)

LOL! Glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humor! Thanks for making me smile! :-)

Wow. It takes a brave woman to post pics of her feet whilst on the pot. :)

Um, thanks for reminding me that my toes are due for some care, nice colour... Love the bathroom tile as well.

Those legs are extremely unshaved.
I just have no hair left.
