There was only one line open in the grocery store and I was headed for the back of it. I walked up behind an older lady and was just about to settle in for the wait and surf magazine headlines when she farted.
It was not a toot, nor did she simply break wind. She farted.
It was long-winded and made my stomach turn, so I excused myself from line pretending that I had forgotten something (oh yeah, and pretending I hadn't heard). I hope somebody repays me the favor someday when I accidentally let a big one slip.
I hung out in the frozen waffle aisle long enough for the air to clear and then headed back. Mercifully, a second line was open.

Too funny!! I can assure you, if any one of my four kids (or maybe even my husband) had been with you for that unfortunate occurence, there would have been no chance of slipping quietly out of line to hang out in frozen waffle aisle. They would have totally been unable to have slipped quietly anywhere...every euphamism would have been giggled over uncontrollably: The breeze below the knees. The thunder down under. Rumbling in the basement. Too funny!!!
Well, I will say it's easier to keep composure when there's no friends around. If someone had have been with me, I might have busted a giggle.
Cdub,
If we were there, and had a straw, we could give her a run for her money. And laugh until we pee'd our pants.
