    Hmmmmm, voraciousreader, maybe you made them garters snap so you could show those boys a little leg.  Not blaming you because you were young afterall, but...  Perhaps those boys eyes travelling up your body to your tatas caused you to blush which made the nipples pop.  Just sayin'

    Apparently it is from all of those mushy canned vegetables Mom fed us. I was thinking about TV dinners, too. The kind with the tin foil tray. Were those really mashed potatoes?

    Hi. Potoo, That is very funny.  Maybe I got breast cancer because I stuffed toilet paper in my training bra to look more grown up.  SharonH

    Hi, Sounds good. Maybe I got breast cancer from those strobe lights that were in all those dance clubs. Or maybe from those black lights. SharonH

    You ladies are outta control!!!! Is it Stoli?  Used to drink that stuff straight up - Hmmmm, maybe it was the vodka but then it could have been the Long Island Iced Tea (my very first ever drink, had me hanging out a cab window after work, losing my stomach contents, on New Years Eve, from downtown Manhattan to upper Bronx - about an hours ride - back in 1967.  Boy was that cab driver angry!)  Learned back then drinking is not for me since I get sick, not high!  Yeah, took a few tests to confirm that so now 2 drinks is almost too much for me.

    Patoo-could be the Long Island Icetea. My favorite drink in college. I don't think I could drink if I wanted to right now. The Tamoxifen has got me dizzy & occasionally stumbling. I don't think I could pass a sobriety test soberFrown
