Too Much Information

But that's what these Constance blogs are all about, right?

So my husband thinks it's great fun to make me answer the phone if it rings while we're... busy, shall we say. He likes doing things to me and see if I can keep an even tone in my voice while I talk to whoever happened to call. And this weekend my mom was on the other end of the line. Telling me she forgot something when she was over earlier and would it be okay if she came to get it. She laughed and said something about wanting to make sure we weren't in the living room with no pants on before she came in.

well, we aren't in the living room, but... um.... when are you coming over? Oh, you're standing on my front porch? Great, um, we're taking a nap, but okay, come in.

I've been married 12 years and produced two grandchildren for the woman, so she knows I'm likely having sex on a regular basis. There's a big difference though between knowing it's happening, and knowing it's happening *right now* six feet away from the hall you're walking down. I don't know why it embarrassed me but it still did. And yet it was kind of a turn-on in a weird way too. I guess I shouldn't be surprised by that since both our kids were conceived when we had overnight company.

I know exactly what you mean! I hated to tell my Mom I was pregnant...never mind I was married etc. etc.

THAT was proof beyond any assumption that I was having sex. There was no denying it after that!

My mom knew that I was taking fertility meds & then knew what time of the month I would call crying when they didn't work .... it's not a huge jump to figure out when we were doing the dirty dirty.

Lovely.

*shudder* I don't even want to sleep in the same room with hubs when my parents are here!! But he has that same thing about "Can we be quiet & sneak around the company?!" It's fun ~ just not when I have to see my parents over my coffee mug the next day!
