Not So Bright

There are days that I astound myself- in both directions. Today was one.

My wife and I have been the absolute closest, best friends since the day we met almost 27 years ago. And we kid around alot (mostly me). Today I sent her this text...

I was thinking about this earlier and I've decided I I'll let you blow me this evening. See you then.

She would typically recognize this as my way of saying "hi". However, I was unaware she was out prom dress shopping with my daughter and was driving at the time- without her reading glasses on. She asked my 18-year-old high school senior daughter to check her beeping phone for her.

I don't think the day she departs for college will come quickly enough for her now.

Awkward situation.
I'd blame it on that mobile phone guy up in Maryland jacking your phone account.
 
At least she didn't have to witness the event by way of cell phone video.

Who else can share a story of "busted by the kid(s)"...and how did you handle it?
 
Believe me when I tell you, there's no real chance of catching Mom in the act. That's why it was such an obvious joke- if you were on the inside of the joke, that is.

I've got a good one....happened about 8 years ago.

2.5 and 5 year old boys at home and my parents are coming over to watch the kids so the wife and I can go out for a Sat night dinner. We're taking showers/getting ready and she comes out looking HOTTT!!! I can't wait, I'm hittin that now. 5 year old walks in right near the end, were on top the covers, all contorted and locked together.......best thing I could come up with was "we're wrestling!"

Parents show up, we go out to dinner. Come home later and my Dad is teasing me about the naked wrestling......but it gets worse.

The next morning we get up and take the kids to church. The sunday school teacher is kinda embarassed as we pick up the 5 year old.....on the way home he shows us the picture he drew in class....IT'S OF US NAKED WRESTLING!!!!!!

We can laugh now....but OMG that was not cool then!!!

i can see the response from mom right now
"well you see honey, when too people are in love......... ah nevermind, dad's an idiot"
 
That's funny right there!!!! Can you say oups? :sifone: I am not sure I would have told this crowd about it though.:ack2:
 
"well you see honey, when too people are in love......... ah nevermind, dad's an idiot"

That's exactly what she told her. But she didn't have to. She already knew. For the last 18 years, she's had me and her older brother. She's well aware that all men are idiots.
