A story of patience (or lack thereof)

"How did you tell Camm you were pregnant?" was a question that many friends asked me after I had made it public that I was carrying the babe. "Uh, he told me...?" has always been my response. Here's why:

The directions on the box explicitly said to pee on the stick and then wait three minutes for test results. A dash indicates negative and a plus indicates positive. "Eh, directions," I thought, "What do they know?"
I peed on the stick and immediate looked at it.






"Not pregnant," I decided and chucked it in the trash can.

...Three minutes later...

I heard Camm's voice from the bathroom.
"Um, Moll!" he exclaimed.
"Oh, what do you want Camm?"
"Um, it looks like we're having a baby!"
"No we're not, Camm. Thanks but I just did the test."
"I know Moll, and it says positive."
Though not fully convinced,  I came running. Sure enough there it was:






And nine months later came the princess...the rest is history


Did anyone else fail to wait the three minutes? Or am I the only completely impatient one?
