Tonight I took Junior to the indoor play area at the Mulletville mall. I overheard this conversation between a married couple as they hovered over their twin toddlers:
Mother to daughter, who was sitting on slide: “Abigail, it’s your turn. Go down.”
Father to son, who was standing in line for slide: “Jeffrey, don’t rush your sister.”
Mother: “Abigail, Jeffrey is waiting for his turn.”
Father: “Jeffrey, Abigail will go down when she’s ready. You can wait.”
Mother: “Go down the slide, Abigail.”
Father: “Don’t rush her, Jeffrey.”
Mother: “Abigail! Your brother is being very patient, now go down the slide.”
Father: “Jeffrey, you back up and give her space!”
Mother [pushes daughter down slide]: "There. Your turn, Jeffrey."
Can’t you just picture this couple in bed?
Wife: “Richard, it’s my turn. You owe me for last night’s pathetic lay.”
Husband: “Don’t rush me, Francine. You know I need to cuddle first.”
Wife: “Stop pussy footing around, Richard.”
Husband: “I’ll get on top when I’m ready, Francine.”
Wife: “I’m waiting, Richard.”
Husband: “Dammit, Francine, don’t rush me.”
Wife: “Richard, if you don’t get your lame ass in gear I’m going to—”
Husband: “—I said I need some space! You’re ruining it. Now I’m going to need the Viagra again. Are you happy?”
Wife [gets vibrator from night stand]: "Well. He's up to it, Richard."
Love and marriage…love and marriage…falalalalala.

Was that a leap of cognition? Or just an easy assumption? Either way yer funny. One needs funny when dealing with illness... :)
Sounds like they need to relax a little--with their kids and...
Wow that was hilarious! And I totally know the kind of people too! When I used to take Jujube to the play areas there would be at least three parents like that!
I'm pretty sure there are parents like that at every play park in every mall.
They crack me up!
Those kids are gonna need counseling. Serious counseling
I can so see how confused those kids are going to be.
You're hilarious! Parents like that really need to chillllll.
I hope Jeffrey actually got a turn.
This post is awesome.
Love that the Mom just took charge and pushed the kid down the slide. There's no lollygagging in sliding, people!
I'm still laughing....and of course you named her Francine, of course you did.
LOL - too funny! HA! ;o)
LOL! I had no idea where that was going. Very funny!
oh wow. so you just think about other couples in bed? interesting.
I've seen my share of those parents, poor kids don't know how to make a decision! Then there are those others who leave 3 ten year olds at the mall play area to run at 40 mph and knock over all the little ones while mom is no where to be found! I really don't like those...
You can tell a lot about a guy by the way he talks to his kids.
Too bad you have to have kids with him to find out.
Oh my, you have left me with nothing to say. That was the most bizarre interaction. Do you think the parents were communicating with each other using the kids. Maybe they were in some type of argument and it carried over to their discussion with the kids.
nothing like using your kids to get at each other.
ROFLMAO.
and this is why I love your blog...we're on the same dirty minded level. ;)
That was a leap I've never made. You are hilarious! Dirty mind and all!
This gave me the laugh I needed today. Love the Francine & Richard names you used... that shit just crack me the fuck up.
Yeah.. . that's what I always do. . . fantasize about other couple's sex lives. . . .
One of my greatest parenting fantasies is that a slide is ever-available to push your kid down when they're pissing you off.
HAHAHAHA That is hilarious!!! Your mind works curiously like my own! haha
You and I have the EXACT same (sick) sense of humor. I admire that in a person ;)
Women think I'm weird that I don't like vibrators but obviously you just explained the reason I don't.
AHAHAHAHA! My mind was in the gutter during the first part of your post, too...
I like the way you think. ;)
