Making the 70 Year Old Turtle Cry
That title is not a euphemism for sex with an old dude or anything. I did that today. Made a turtle cry.
I took the kids to our podunk zoo this morning, to give my husband some time off. We got to the zoo right when it opened. (Because my two year old wakes up at 6:15 in the morning every day and demands things. Like food and a diaper change. I have been trying to show her how to do these things for herself. So far, no dice.)
At the zoo, on a Sunday, in the first hour that they open the gates? Not too many people there. So me and my two lovely children kept bumping into the same little blue haired ladies who were taking a morning constitutional amongst the animals. It gets awkward, you know? Bumping into the same two people all over the zoo.
I realize it's not as awkward as back in college, when you discover the guy with whom you drunkenly played tonsil hockey at the Frat party Saturday night is also the T.A. for the Chemistry class you Tuesday afternoon or anything.
