It's All in the Way He Wears the Suit

  • The one on the left is Dr. Darin, one of the 4 (yes, 4) Darins on the surf trip.
  • The woman in the middle (on the surf board) is his wife.  When she was 16.
  • Dr. Darin is middle aged.  Don't tell him that, though.
  • That makes the surf board a little on the disturbing side.
  • The tall, dark and handsome is my husband.
  • The surf board is rented or you'd definitely see an incredibly sexy blond mermaid painted on it.  With fewer curves but darned sexy, nonetheless.  
  • Of course I mean me, what did you think?
  • The wetsuit is not rented. It also is not optional in this water temperature. Surprise expense.
  • Both men are going commando under those suits.

    Great picture-I'm a little disturbed about the commando thing. Not a fan...but as long as their ok with it- go for it! Although, you said "rented" right? Hmmmmm-they disinfect right????

    Looks like such fun... I never knew what lied beneath those wet suites :) I am a mum of three and we're adopting twins from Ethiopia! I found your blog on Design It Chic blog hop and look forward to following along and hope you may want to do the same! Have a great weekend!
    Blessings.

    The Pacific near San Diego rarely gets about 62 degrees, so yes, the wetsuit is necessary.

    I used to drive past the surfers as they changed out of wetsuits all the time - I don't recall even one going commando (surely I'd have noticed THAT).

    Very funny post. I always assumed that surfers had to go commando--the suits are so tight.--Okay, that sounds weird now. I've never seen anyone in a wetsuit close up. Just wanted to clarify that.

    There are just so many questions brought on by this post... most of them I am not sure I want to know the answer to. However, this one I gotta know.

    Does Dr Darin live by the seashore or does he carry his surfboard on the plane with him. Would Mr. Musing have to fly his surfboard if he bought one and painted a sexy, just a little curvy Ms. Musing on it?

    Okay, that's two questions and I really don't want to know if wetsuits cause chafing. Or pinching... really...

The Most Dreaded Words

 Everybody knows that Christmas is about keeping the Santa Secret and pleasing your children. Therefore, the most dreaded words are uttered on Christmas Eve. "I changed my mind, I want a [pony, scooter, bike, Red Rider BB gun]" A close second place winner is, "Can I have a New Year's Eve party?" Then, "Me, too?"

Too Sick to be Sick

I am sick.  Really and truly sick.  I even took a sick day and felt no guilt whatsoever that maybe I wasn't sick enough to have a "sick day."  Because I am.  My 5 year old was sick, too so I took him to the doctor.  I refuse to acknowledge that I'm sick because I don't get sick.  So with absolute glee, my little boy climbed up onto the table, stuck out his tongue and conversed with the doctor.  I heard something about cloudy ears and antibiotics and then I just turned it off. It hurts when sound reaches my eardrums. We drove back home, I turned on the television, brought in the dog, and let the babysitting begin.  I crawled back into bed and swam somewhere between consciousness and unconsciousness.  The kids came home from school.  I might have acknowledged them.  I made chicken noodle soup from scratch.  I couldn't even think.  My husband caught me in a sway and asked what he could do.  I grunted some terse instructi...

What We Eat

Check out the good looking crew.  Just to clarify.  I'm the pretty one. There's a little mountain resort in Northern Utah that is invaded every July by this group of people. We are an intimidating bunch. 5 years ago my brother brought his Nepalese bride to the United States.  She lived in a country where she had no expectation to ever drive a car.  She bought her food daily from the market and ate it.  She taught English, although her accent was so strong when she arrived I questioned her grasp of the language.  We tried to be friendly and accepting.  We ended up scaring the daylights out of her. She thought we were crazy.  Her words, not mine. Although I think she tolerated me a little better than the others because I had the brand new fair-haired baby that she continued to steal.  She wanted a blond haired, blue eyed baby and wondered what her chances were now that she married an American. We take turns cooking for the family dinners. ...
