more reasons why my mom is cool:

meg:  "this guy came into the hospital and his balls were *this big*!"
me:  "ew."
meg:  "seriously!  they had to put them in a ball-sling and then prop them up on a pillow on his lap!"
(mom walks in the room)
me:  "we were just discussing medical stuff..."
mom:  (surreptitious grin) "all i heard was something about big balls."
