The Beauty Within

I’m at my parents’ home celebrating x-mas, and I swear, my family has the most hilarious stories in the world.  My cheeks hurt so much from laughing continuously at all the embarassing and hilarious things that we do.

The first story involves one of my sisters.  Since I have 4 sisters, I figured I’ll keep it sort of anonymous by not stating which sister it is.  =D

So this sister was going over to a person’s house in San Marino to pick some things up.  She gets in her car, punches in the address in the navigation system, and off she goes.  It happened to rain that night, and when it rains in LA, traffic pretty much stops.  She’s on the 110 freeway near downtown LA when suddenly she has to pee.  It’s really scary and dangerous to wonder around downtown LA at night when it’s raining just to look for a bathroom, so she figures she’ll wait til she gets to Pasadena.

She drives all the way to Pasadena, where the 110 freeway ends, and decides that since there was only 3 more miles to her destination, she’ll just continue to hold it til she gets to the person’s house.  She gets there, the navigation system says “You have reached your destination to your left.”  She exits the car, her bladder completely full, and runs over to a house on her left side and rings the doorbell.  An elderly Chinese woman answers the door, and my sister stands there, wiggling around to hold her pee in, and greets the elderly lady in Mandarin.  She says, “Hello (wiggle).  I’m here to see *****.  He’s expecting me.  But first, can I please use your restroom? (wiggle wiggle)”

The elderly lady sees the urgency of my sister’s bladder, and directs her first to the restroom.  My sis finishes her business, comes out, and apologizes for rushing off to the bathroom.  She repeats herself, “I’m here to pick up some stuff from *****.  He’s expecting me.”  The elderly lady looks a bit confused, so my sister asks, “Oh, is this the ***** family?”

The elderly lady shakes her head, and tells my sister that she’s got the wrong house.  The **** family lives next door.
