Emily,
I am amazed that you haven't remembered the story from Lake Geroge last year.......
We were sitting on our patio one evening last year after dark and everyone was just having fun and Emily let go with one of the largest belches EVER! Someone from across the resort yelled "WOW...really good one!" Emily yells back..."THANK YOU" and the voice responds with "that was a chick????"
We laughed for quite a while!!

This post really brings out the kid in me. =-) Every time I see it, I laugh my butt off. I'm sorry, but someone waking up to a fart in the face is just too funny. =-) To Carly from Toronto,

Ewwwwwww! =-) I spit in the kitchen sink, which is bad enough. Someone will be washing dishes in one side, and I'll come and spit in the other side. Or someone will be getting a glass of water, and I'll spit in the sink. Ha, ha, ha! =-) Sometimes I do it on purpose just to get a reaction.

Ow, okay, I'm laughing so much I gave myself a coughing fit and a headache. Sooo funny! =-)

I'm incredibly proud when people hear me belch. Often they congratulate me on it, and if they didn't see me do it, when I say thank you, they look entirely shocked. It always makes me laugh when I find out someone thought I was a guy from my belch.

When our little girl Rachel was born with CF in 2001. We were told that kids with CF usually have higher IQs, like it was some type of booby prize or something. All I could think was oh darn she is going to be able to outsmart us!
I don't think that there is anything about my daughter that annoys me and I have never actually met anyone one else with CF. And all of the things that you guys listed aren't THAT annoying. (My husband is really stinky and CF is not to blame) I think that you all are smart and funny. I would rather have smart, funny, interesting and smelly over boring and normal anyday of the week. Hang in there guys my Mom always said that nobody's butt smells like roses.

I have a very loud distinctive laugh. I go into these laughing spasms where I cant breath and then I start to cough! My laugh usually has other people on the ground in stiches!-Ooops, just let off a S.B.D.!<img src="i/expressions/rose.gif" border="0">

I also cross my legs when I start coughing for the same reason. And I have a pretty distinct laugh. I have a few, and the two main ones have been described as
1. An intoxicated chipmunk
2. A witch-like cackle
I also tend to snort, but that's purposeful because it helps me to stop laughing if I feel like it's getting to be too much and will have me choking for 10 minutes afterward.
 
well...like...i can be at a store and laugh and my friends would be like "Brandi! is that you?!" haha its happened once...and when im in the halls the teachers know im coming to class...hehehe<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif" border="0">

one time i was in a resteraunt and my dad got me laughing...and i snorted...and he started cracking up and i laughed at him and i couldnt move and the bathroom was soooo damn far away...so...needless to say...somebody had to get me a jacket long enough to go half way down my pants so nothing was visible <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
hehe god..im such a loser...lol im just waiting for the day for me to pee my pants at school...HIGHSCHOOL never-the-less! omg lol i have to admit...i do some stupid chyt...and my friends do...and we come up with some funny chyt too! lol it will happen someday...i knowwww it lol and when that day comes...ill be the laughing stalk of the whole school lol and everybody will know my name...it happened once and all my friends were like "brandi!! umm why are you wearing differant pants???" hahahaha i was like -shrugs- felt like it <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif" border="0"> i come up with dumb storys...but the people who listen must be half as dumb if they buy it! <img src="i/expressions/devil.gif" border="0">

Emily does sound like a drunk chipmunk when she gets laughing. That has always been the way we described it, but we like to hear her laugh. Up until the last couple of years...until we knew the laughing would turn in to coughing fits.
She has one friend who works at Stop & Shop and when we go for groceries....if we are standing at the deli and she gets coughing, he will come out of the back room and say "I knew you were here".

Hah. Even worse. Ryan (the friend that works at Stop & Shop) told his friend who also works there, Carrie, that she'd know me by my cough. So one day when my mother and I were there and Ryan wasn't even working... This girl comes out from the back after we've been standing there for a few minutes, and says "You must be Emily." Then she told me she was Carrie and I understood, but I damn near fell over. It was really funny.

He, he. I'm told I have an evil laugh; sometime I cakle like a witch (except the male version =-) And other time I laugh loud and big like an evil super villan. =-) When I chuckle, people say that sounds evil, too. =-) Oh, well. =-)
