\nKay can\u2019t recall where she left her purse<\/em>
\nRhonda\u2019s about to replace her knees<\/em>
\nLinda\u2019s breathing is tinged with a wheeze<\/em><\/p>\nDonna's left boob has a troublesome lump<\/em>
\nDiane\u2019s on her third trip to take a dump<\/em>
\nLorraine\u2019s husband can\u2019t remember a thing<\/em>

\nAnd to the places that let lunches run three hours late<\/em>
