Bigfoot

I thought I'd fallen victim to some new, outrageous symptom of ALS.

Amanda was helping me dry off after a shower.

She reached for a large brush on the shelf and said,"Let me brush your back."

I cannot begin to explain the fear that went through my mind. Was my back so hairy that I looked like Bigfoot? Why did she need a large woman's brush? Does my back look like a pelt?

Why didn't the folks at Hopkins warn me about this?

I was a moment away from turning around to check out my allegedly hairy back, when I simply said, "Huh?"

It turns out Amanda said, "Let me brush your hair back."

God, I must be tired!

  1. Thanks for the laugh! I'm glad the waxing strips didn't have to be used.

  4. I was thinking that maybe I could loan you my Emjoi hair removal thing. It REALLY is not as painful as you would think! I promise!

    Made me think of that scene in "40 year old virgin" with the giant wax strips!

    Now, my cheeks hurt from smiling...

  5. If you take after your old man, then you probably need a parting back there!
