IN THIS BLOG'S OPINION, THEY ARE WORTH IT
But we had no idea those things were so high-maintenance.

Wow...No wonder I'm such of fan of those things

"That's right, take a look at them, study them, squeeze them, check for discharges, cracks, cuts, sores, change in size, shape or form."
That sentence started out so well then just went to heck in a handbasket. OMG!! It used to have a perky pillow shape, now it looks like the slope of Nixon's nose, WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!?

Key Quote: Wake breasts up slowly after a night's sleep
God I hate cranky breasts in the morning...atleast until they've gotten their first cup of coffee!

So I've been doing it wrong all these years?
Posted by: shauna | October 17, 2005 at 10:23 AM
What if your breasts don't like broccoli? Mine prefer ice cream.
Or so they tell me.
Posted by: Kilmeny | October 17, 2005 at 10:27 AM
I found this article strangely titillating.
(get it? GET IT?)
Posted by: Mr. Completely | October 17, 2005 at 10:27 AM
oh, be kind to your mammary friends
that breast may nurse somebody's brother
you may think that just staring's enough
but check for cracks,sores and discharge, too!
(euurrggh!)

Breasts do NOT perfer cotton; breasts prefer freestyle.
Also, if you gave your breasts a 'facial' or a 'moisturizer', you'd make yourself as sick as dog, and probably get a seeping rash besides. Nipples, especially, are very absorbent, and a hell of a lot more sensitive to chemicals than your face, or even your mouth is. Like the mucus membranes, they also provide much more direct access to your blood stream.
Meaning allergic and adverse reactions would be faster and more severe.
The phrasing is cute, but the actual advice is dangerous.

I put my salad on my breasts and got arrested.

I'm with you, marlodianne. Free them! Bras are sadistic and should only be worn when coming off again soon, *winkwink*! Of course, this is much easier for those of us, who after four children, still shop in the teen bra section or look for "almost A". I am hopelessly not blessed in this area.
You mean guys don't caress and massage any areas of their body? That's not what I heard. "Mom, it's mine; I can wash it as fast as I want to!"

I'm sorry. Is this a serious article about breasts ? Do you women actually DO this stuff ?
Posted by: Down in Texas | October 17, 2005 at 11:09 AM
Wow - I guess 've been totally neglecting the sistas. My bad. My only concession to breast care is hoisting them out of the way before I plop down on my side.
Besides, the kids might ask questions if I started incorporating cucumbers into my morning routine.
Posted by: Jillywilly | October 17, 2005 at 11:18 AM
So, does the morning "wake-up" routine vary depending on whether one has cherries or pineapples???
Posted by: bodi | October 17, 2005 at 11:24 AM
Put your favourite music on and relax your breasts.
Should I do this when I am relaxing the rest of my body or do my breasts require some sort of personal relaxation therapy? And what music do they prefer? So far I haven't gotten any selection advice from them although I've been asking them regularly for about 15 minutes now. The only reaction I've gotten to this questioning is from my colleagues.
Posted by: Somewhere North | October 17, 2005 at 11:42 AM
i think there was an article some time ago about plastic implant cum mp3 players... perhaps the relaxing music should come from there?
Posted by: pat | October 17, 2005 at 11:52 AM
the armpit belongs to the breast
I didn't know this and I just asked my breasts and they said no way did they want my armpit, so I guess this article is not totally accurate *sigh*. And I read them the entire article to see if they felt (hee, hee) neglected, and they said no, we only want to be free as much as possible!
OK then, can do.
jillywilly: that's the same breast care that I do too! Get out of the way, I want to lie on my side!!
Posted by: Eleanor | October 17, 2005 at 12:00 PM
S'North - try putting your headphones on them before channel surfing for the best music. I've found that time and gravity 'relaxes' them.
Posted by: MOTW | October 17, 2005 at 12:11 PM
i'm postive this was not written by a woman. at least not one with home grown breasts.
Posted by: crossgirl | October 17, 2005 at 12:14 PM
One must keep abreast of these things.

It's REALLY fun to read if you take the R out of the word Breasts at every occurance.

Down in Texas, Wouldn't you like to know?! *wink, wink*
I like to wake them up slowly, but they always want to get out of bed in front of me.
Posted by: Jessica R. | October 17, 2005 at 12:49 PM
Why did I hear boom schwacket music while reading that....especially the cucumber part.
Posted by: slyeyes | October 17, 2005 at 12:57 PM
Sigh... my breasts are requesting a long vacation in a hot destination with lots of good looking, half dressed men who give me drinks instead of the whole music relaxation technique. They just laughed at the cucumber suggestion.

"Roxanne" with Steve Martin of course!
Posted by: Sarah J | October 17, 2005 at 04:47 PM
but Steve Martin dosen't say that, Chris McConnell does.

Sarah J~ Excellent work. Take your boobs out somewhere nice and make them feel special. :-)

Put your favourite music on and relax your breasts.
I wonder what kind of music the average breast is listening to these days.
Posted by: M.C. | October 17, 2005 at 11:41 PM
I've been doing this faithfully for my knees for years. NOW I find out it shoulda been my breasts?
Posted by: azred | October 17, 2005 at 11:54 PM
M.C.: Probably not Britney "Maternity Bra" Spears.

Hey, look! No wonder there were so many hits on my awesomely fantastic blog from this site. ;)
Breasts... ah, yes. I'm a fan of them. I remember when they used to be "big" but now they're just kind of LONG. When did that happen?
And I believe a woman's life can be summed up in this: the search for the perfect bra (pssst- it doesn't exist!).
Posted by: JustLinda | October 18, 2005 at 12:20 PM
Besides, HIGH maintenance is such a misnomer... when you're my age, they are very LOOOOOW maintenance, like, almost down to your belly-button low. ;)
Posted by: JustLinda | October 18, 2005 at 12:36 PM
Feed your breasts? Do you just let them hang in the plate and forage for themselves?
Posted by: Wally Ballou | October 18, 2005 at 01:23 PM
M.C. -- The average breast is, of course, listening to this band:
