An enlightening conversation-verbatim with my sis
Posted: Thu Jun 27, 2013 7:23 am
To set the stage a bit-my sis/bro-in-law/niece and grandniece live in Charleston. My niece posted on FB yesterday that as she and her daughter were approaching my sis's apartment to have dinner lightning struck a power pole next to the apartment and, in fact, traveled through the floor and up my sis's leg. For real. She's okay. But still. I mean.
I texted her last night !!!!!???!!!! Are you okay??!?!? and like that.
This morning she texted me and I shall relay the entirety of our convo:
Kate: "I got struck by lightning whilst standing in my kitchen making dinner....a good case for not cooking, huh!"
Me: "That's insane."
Kate: "And it didn't curly hair (sic) either...rats!"
Me: "What did it feel like? Did the emts check you out?"
Kate: "It came up my feet and ended at my hoohah..it kind of itched for awhile...WMD was all around as was the fire dept but I didn't need no checkin'..."
WMD would be ems in English"
Me: "You have a blazing cooter? People would pay good money for that WMD indeed. How could lightning go thru your floor?"
Kate: Not around herre!!!" referring to good money
Truly a weapon of mass destruction. I guess it grounded through the concrete floor. TV and Internet router also fried."
Me: "You realize I have to tell peeps this conversation verbatim? If I can breathe through it Seriously glad you're not crispy"
Kate:" It is quite amusing if I do say so But I really wanted curly hair"
Me: Hmmm. Curling iron. Lightning strike. What to do. What to do."
Forget that I've never EVER heard my sister use the word hoohah.
