Smelly behaviors?

I was just thinking about how funny some circumstances are.   The first week after surgery, the question of the day (every day by the way!) was: “Have you passed gas?” 

The first time the nurse asked me that I told her,

“No!, I have a roommate! I cannot do that or shouldn’t do that!”

“Oh no no,” the nurse said, “here, we encourage that, we want you to pass gas!”

Well, my timing is impeccable!  So, very next day a very nice gentleman took me downstairs for X rays, and of course, as soon as he helped me out of my bed, I PASSED GAS!!!!  Not ONE! A FEW!!!

Immediately I apologize and I said, “Sorry, THEY encourage this behavior here!!!”

Now I think how fast we are usually to blame someone else.  I should’ve said:

“YES MAN! That’s my gas and I’m very proud of it! Although it took some time…. Hmm…

My lesson: own your behaviors even if they smell!!!!!
