Living out loud in the Carolinas

I’ll be just fine. Today I went with my Mom & a friend of her’s to go see Body Worlds at Discovery Place.Photobucket It was amazing. I mean really, mind blowing WOW amazing.  And packed.  Crowded.  Which was good.  Everyone should see this.  I learned a lot.  They had these audio guides that you held up to your ear.  It was so neat to see everyone walking around looking at the exhibit and learning and mouthing “wow”.

They showcased healthy organs next to diseased ones.  I wish every smoker would go to this exhibit.  If that didn’t change your mind I don’t know what would.

Most of the bodies were men.  And they still had their wienies.   Just hanging out.  Along with their balls.  Which were out of their little sacks.  Just hanging there by their ball strings.  One on either side.  So it was 2 hours of walking around looking at penises.  Penii.  Whatever.   I swear I don’t know how they walk around with those things hanging off them.  We couldn’t take pictures.  But you know if I could have you’d be seeing from free swinging peenies and balls right here!

    Ugh. Saw that when I was pregnant … didn’t sit so well in the tummy … plus, we saw it at like 11 PM and it was crowded and hot. I like the idea, but maybe I should see it when I’m not knocked up … ehhe.

    When I saw the title of your blog post I had to click over here and read it for myself. I was thinking… clearly she’s a married woman if she thinks that. LOL!

    Then I read what you were actually talking about.
    Interesting.

    I saw “Body Worlds” when it was in Los Angeles about 1 1/2 years ago and while it was really…interesting and somewhat amazing, it was kinda gross. And I don’t know why, but I couldn’t stand to see all the fetuses. Ugh. It was hard to see, just as a woman.

    Yeah, the pregnancy part of the exhibit was hard to look at. It was emotional to walk through. But I thought it was amazing and extremely educational.

    So, Shanny…
    After the exhibit, did you have meatballs for lunch? Or perhaps some matzoh balls or falafel if you felt the need for some international “balls?”

    do you remember the old Saturday night live skit with Alec Baldwin when he was Ned Schwetty and he had chocolate schwetty balls (I think it was with the natural gals!)

    You really made me chuckle!

    I do remember that skit! OMG schwetty balls! Yeah, I won’t be eating sausage, bananas, or anything ball shaped for a long while.
