Nurses Humor

One of my instructors told this story:

She was relaxing at home reading a nursing journal, when her young son approached her and asked, "Mom, what does Urorifice look like?"

She thought he said, "What does your orifice look like?"

She thought to herself, oh boy, here comes the sex talk. But why would he start with the orifice? Oh well, I'm his mom, and I'm a nurse. I can handle it.

She began, "What would you like to know?"

"Like, what color is it?"

"Well, it's kinda pink and kinda brown."

"Does it have rings on it?"

"Well, honey, not if it's clean."

Suddenly they began to realize they were not talking about the same thing.

"Mom, I was talking about the PLANET... Oh, Mom, you're gross!"

This story reminds me of something that happened recently with my own kids.

I was driving in the car one day with my two boys who are 7 and 8. My youngest son started complaining of his butt itching. When I asked him where it was itching at he replied, "you know, the hole that the poop comes out of."

My older son, having delved into some of my medical books, decided to give his younger sibling an anatomy lesson and stated, "that's your orifice."

My younger one then piped in with, "hey! I know that planet", and started naming all the planets.

It was all I could do to keep from running the car off the road as I burst out with hysterical laughter.

Oh that's cute. Is that a diversion cure? Did he forget about his itchy butt? :)
