Beware:

Prune juice. It works. Fast too I found, if you drink enough.

Just make damned sure you're not OUT of TOILET PAPER when it decides to work.

And when you call your sister to bare your embarrassed and exploited soul....make sure she doesn't have you on SPEAKER phone at the grocery store.

Yep. This is my day. I am now (and forever on holidays) known as Sister Shatner

It's one of those times I have to laugh at myself. (Afraid I'll blow up if I don't)

TMI, I know. Good thing I never had Facebook or a YouTube channel...

I didn't realize I was on speaker with my sis, even as she was laughing hysterically. She said I should've seen the looks she got!

I'm dealing with bladder/bowel issues from a spinal injury. Trying to keep my sense of humor through it all.

The funniest part is that I live in a very small town and had to go to the same store as my sister just before she was in it. I'm pretty sure I was recognized lol.
