Well ladies and gentlemen, you may notice this post does not have the normal witty Bad Momness this blog usually possesses. That's because this is actually Bad Dad pinch hitting this evening.
Stephanie has 'recovered' from being sick and has been hinting at getting back to more normal 'the-kids-are-in-bed' evenings. There was even a trip to Victoria's Secret by The Woman today. I got the kids in bed, went upstairs to pitch a little woo (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) and was greeted by a 99% asleep, fully dressed wife, curled up in bed. At 8 pm.
Me: "So, I guess we're not making out tonight?"
Bad Mom: "hmphhh, huhh? No, but I need you to post for me"
Me: "So, we are not making out?"
BM: "You need to post for me."
Me: "Is 'post' secret code for making out?"
BM: "no"
Me: "shit"
So here I am. Typing. Normally I am on the comment side of all of your blogs so my smart ass quips can be short and sweet. I am not much of a typist and am much better in the moment of a conversation (go ahead, buy me a drink sometime and put me to the test). I am more of a stand-up than an author. I am impressed by all of you that can lay down paragraph after paragraph of worthwhile reading.
Well, I have satisfied my requirement of a post. I think I'll try to wake up The Woman, wish me luck, or her, depending on who's side you are on.....

Well done, Bad Dad!
My other half is in bed with a cold, so I should say that I relate to your issue. Mostly though, I'm excited to do Sudoku in bed fully dressed. Without being groped.
i hope you both get lucky
Good post, Bad Dad.
As for Bad Mom...I'd say, gently pull a blanket up over her, turn the light off and with a quick kiss to the forehead, let her be. When she realizes what you did, she might possibly be so grateful that tomorrow night...may be a whole 'nuther ballgame!! Good luck!!!
is that code for make out?...oh, your optimism is endearing.
Stu! Welcome to the world of blogging...this is the announcement of Bad Dad, right?
Oh well. Though it saddens you so, I have to admit I'm glad she is resting.
Bad Mom + Bad Dad = Funny Couple
Good job, Stu. You are not alone in thinking that *everything* is a code word for making out. (Ps, I didn't even know anyone other than me and my hubby used the terminology "making out". I feel a little less adolescent now.)
Feel better, Bad Mom!
I am reminded of "Hope springs eternal in the breast of man" (or was it "for the breast of ... ?")
Very funny! Maybe you need your own blog too.
Still very witty, Bad Dad!
I was most impressed with your virgin post. Stephanie would have rolled her eyes at you about the definition of "post" had she been at lease 2% awake. So I am doing it now on her behalf!

Thank you all for your comments and kudos. On starting my own blog; I am just too lazy to do this on a regular basis. I'll stick to drive by commenting.
