A Middle-Aged Woman Seemed Sheepish.

A middle-aged woman seemed sheepish as she visited her gynecologist.

“Come now,” coaxed the doctor,

“you’ve been seeing me for years. There’s nothing you can’t tell me.”

“This one’s kind of strange,” the woman said.

“Let me be the judge of that,” the doctor replied.

“Well,” she said,

“yesterday I went to the bathroom in the morning and heard a plink-plink-plink in the toilet. When I looked down, the water was full of pennies.”

“I see,” commented the doctor calmly.

“That afternoon, I went to the bathroom again and, plink-plink-plink, there were 5 more in the bowl,” the woman continued.

“That night,” she went on,

“I went again, and plink-plink-plink, there were 50!. This morning, there were 100 coins!”

“You’ve got to tell me what’s wrong with me!” she implored.

“I’m scared out of my wits!”

The gynecologist put a comforting hand on her shoulder.

“There, there, it’s nothing to be scared about,” he said.

“You’re simply going through the change” ..
