Bad Luck with Audiobooks
You might remember that there were a few...incidents when I listened to Mary Roach's book Bonk on audiobook. My luck continues to hold.
I'm at my parents' this week, and I've been spending most of my time refinishing a dining room table so that I will finally have one of my own. While I work on the table I've been listening to Richard Dawkins' 'The Selfish Gene' on audiobook. I thought it would be less dangerous than leaving my music on shuffle and having parents/neighbors hear foul language and/or a grown woman who has Chipmunks music on her playlist.
So I'm putting the top coat onto the chair legs when my dad comes out to check my progress. And Richard....who's been talking about cuckoos and fig wasps and wolves suddenly launches into speculation on why humans lost their penis bone, and how a hydraulic erection could be a sign of fitness and health.
*hides face in hands*
