I see this phenomenon with me and my girlfriends. The married ones always have the largest mouths and will talk about ANYTHING turning the single ladies&#39; faces red at the mere mention. When one girl passes from single to married however, the weirdest thing happens. She loses all that fear. Fear of what, I never discovered. and yeah. The world never ended.<br /><br />Brilliant! Happy Flashaversary!<br /><br />I call it a hoo-haw too. *L*Monica Marierhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03112762564137354581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297227.post-47960084646647082682010-08-27T12:40:47.741-04:002010-08-27T12:40:47.741-04:00Happy Anniversary!

I love this story... I&#39;m also a true redhead, and I&#39;ve been known to make my friends cringe with my sailor-mouth at times. I don&#39;t throw parties like that, though.
