so this story may be a little more personal than you care to be with us, and if you are a little prissy, this post is not for you. skip it.
but this story was just too good. i'm in the middle of switching birth control pills right now, so my NP suggested we use condoms for the next couple weeks. shawn and i are not condom people, we don't even have any. see, lots of information. but shawn's eyeballs pop out of his head at the mere thought of having another wee one anytime soon, and then will proceed to vomit if he thinks of an "accident".
hence, we go to a CVS pharmacy to pick up my new perscription and some condoms. to begin with, we don't even know where they are in a store...health and beauty? pain meds? toys? i don't know. so we find them and shawn literally stands there like a deer in headlights. SO MANY OPTIONS. and i'm like "dang. they're expensive." and he says "well, for most people, which includes us now, you are up a creek without them."
twenty minutes later, folks, he's still standing there. i have now circled the store twice with sam-boy freaking out in the cart, jack is destroying every display they have with a four-square ball that he does not own.
k: "dude, just pick a box."
s: "oh, you want me to pick?"
um, yes.
s: "i don't know which ones to get!"
k: (seeing a box with the size X-LARGE on it) "well, what size do you need? large, x-large?"
s: (rolling his eyes) "babe. they are all the same size. you don't see a box with SMALL on it."
touche, well-said. who's the guy that's gonna walk in and slap a box of SMALL size condoms on the counter?
to all of shawn's friends, you know who you are...please comment kindly, my mom reads this blog...
yes, i'm talking to you nate, morgan, kyle, jordon, and any others who might wander in.
