What an entertaining idea on employing some private SWAT team to guard you and your family jewels from your W! I have to admit, it brought forth a belly buster laugh from me.
Perhaps your upcoming time apart through relaxation will also force her to calm down some? I wish I had a crystal ball, but since I don't, I think you're going to do just fine. Let that faith work for you, friend.
Since you brought up my absence from the BB, I decided to get busy and do a bit of posting. I'm still not ready (and maybe I won't ever be) to start a new thread. I don't have anything to say about my sitch... just hanging out and trying to keep the peace.
Hope you're dried out from the game now!!! Sounds like you and I had similar evenings. I was given free tickets to the premiere of The Three Musketeers, but when we got there (with D10's friend in tow), found out there was a problem and they rescheduled for today. Needless to say, D7 was pissed and had a fit. So I lugged the girls around to 2 more theaters, looking for something that was in our time frame and would be kid worthy--to no avail. With each failure, D7's distress became more pronounced. That's how we ended up at the Sonic--I bought her out of her mood with a chocolate milkshake.
Then D10 and her friend sat on my tailgate and presumably started flirting with the teenage boys who worked there. I couldn't figure out why in the heck boys were coming up to my window to ask me if I needed more ketchup (for milkshakes), napkins or straws?
I figured it out when I heard their giggles and D10 asked loudly, "MOM? Are you a virgin?" I was definitely caught off guard but found my voice, "Do you know what that word means?" Shouting back, "Yes! It means you haven't had sex!" My reply? "Since I have 2 children, I think you can figure this out!"
There was silence for a second, followed by some guffaws and snickers before she said, "When did that happen for you?" Fortunately for me, D7 dropped her milkshake on the floor so I was able to skirt that one completely. This is when you left me the voicemail!
Your time is coming, darlin'!
