A few days ago, I received a note in my FB inbox for ladies only. It was a request for each of us to put the colour of her bra in her status update. Just the colour… nothing else. The idea was to confuse the menfolk, and to spread some breast cancer awareness. I was mostly interested in seeing how quickly things go viral. And I actually didn’t forward the email to anyone else at first. Within about 24 hours, I was noticing single-colour status updates of all my foxes… cool. I think “chartreuse” was my favorite.
I just put the word “Black.” in my status update, and here’s how the responses unfolded. Man, my peeps are so creative and funny…
White.

Lord. That is funny!! And there’s another stupid game running rampant right now… have fun.
. . .
Once as my son watched me get dressed for the day (we’re a nekkid household) he pointed to my bra and asked, “Is that thing for… protection? Or is it so people can’t see.” I stiffled a giggle, and thought better of telling him that bras are so I don’t have to tuck mah boobehs into the top of my pants…
And, since we’re talking about bras, ladies, please have yourselves fitted properly. There’s no such thing as “back fat” if you have on a garment that fits you. True engineering is worth it’s weight in gold, people. I swear. I only have a scant few bras, but I (usually) hand wash and air dry them. They hold their shape this way, and they last a long, long time. Which is a good thing, since I really spend a mint on each one of them. I’d much rather have a $10 top than a $10 bra. Oh my god… a good bra fits like it was made for you. Believe me. And the girls look fabulous too.
As for breast cancer awareness? Give yourself a feel once in a while. Check the girls out every few weeks to be sure they feel the way they always do. If you feel something small and hard, like a dried pea, then see your doctor. If you feel ANYthing you’re not sure should be there, see your doctor. The idea is to know for yourself what your own boobs feel like on a normal day. It takes less than two minutes. Go forth and fondle… anyway, you know you want to. ;)
