The Old Man In The Hot Tub
Yesterday we decided to take the kids to the pool in our apartment complex when Andrew got home from work. We all got suited up and walked over there. The kids had a blast jumping in the water while Andrew decided to unwind for a while in the hot tub. I stood there with Aurora in her little floating seat thingy watching the boys climb in and out and occassionally catching someone when their floaties slipped off their skinny little arms. Then we went to the hot tub for a bit, too. The hot tub was too hot for me and pretty soon I was taking the kids back to the cold pool.
There was a group of teenagers standing in the pool near us when we got back in; all of them about 15 or 16 years old. One of the boys suggested they all go to the hot tub. One of the girls said, "I don’t want to go in the hot tub. There’s old men in there!" I looked back at the hot tub to see who the old men were that had gotten in since I left. The only two people there were my husband (who is 28) and a guy maybe 5 years older than him. I had to laugh! I hadn’t realized that I was married to an "old man"! I thought he was just "broken in"!
That is hilarious!
Did you tell the hubby what they said about him?

I so feel that pain. I look at 16 year olds and remember being that age yesterday. I see a 28 year old and I think that is how old I am, right? Wrong, I’m 42 and that is unbelievable to me!

Curious what the hubby thought! That was pretty funny.

I giggled about it for 3 hours before Andrew finally asked what I was laughing about. Then I told him and he failed to see the humor in it. I told him I was definitely going to blog about it and all he said was, “Fine, if you want to bore all your readers.” It was a classic example of his hissy-less hissy fit!
