Default Can you believe I thought it was voodoo?:D?

Many years ago, when I was 17, I went to spend a few days with some cousins of mine in Louisiana. One evening we went to New Orleans and visited various key spots, such as Bourbon Street and the Riverwalk. At one point during our visit to the Riverwalk, we went to a voodoo shop there. I saw a table with voodoo paraphernalia that had a sign that said,"DO NOT TOUCH!" Of course, I had to touch it! Then, I sort of freaked out when one of my cousins joked that maybe it was cursed. Later that night, my aunt and I slept over at my cousin's trailer. My cousin and her boyfriend were in their bedroom, while my aunt and I slept on two different sofas in the living room. Suddenly, the trailer started shaking! I was really getting afraid, because I didn't know if it was because of earthquake tremors or the voodoo curse! I asked my aunt about it, but she told me to shut up and go to sleep. The next morning, as we were getting ready to go home and my cousin was kissing us goodbye, I asked my cousin
about the shaking of the trailer. Suddenly, her face turned all shades of red!LOL My aunt then said to her, "I'll explain it to her later!" When my aunt explained it to me, I couldn't believe that two people having sex could move an entire trailer! I guess that's what people talk about when they refer to the earth moving!LOL

That's funny. I have a similar story. I was staying with my boyfriend, his mom, and little brother. Me and bf were 'sleeping' in a squeaky bunk bed, while little bro was on the couch in other room, the next morning little bro told his mom she needed to get her fan fixed, he said he got no sleep the night before, because it was squeaking all night long!! LOL.
