Time to Shop Someplace Else

"Are you gonna have sex?"

"What?"

"Are you gonna have sex?" my daughter said again. Her eyes bulged to match the size of her Cheshire-cat grin.

My wife wasn't home. Is she implying I was eyeing the dog?

"I'm getting a piece of cheese out of the refrigerator," I said. "What show are you watching over there?"

"ICarly."

Mental note: Add Miranda Cosgrove to The List. Below American Girl; above Murray's French Toast Sticks.

"So, ARE YOU GONNA HAVE SEX!"

"Do you even know what your 8-year-old mouth is asking?"

"I was walking around the mall with Aunt Bernice and all I see are signs saying 'sex,' 'sex,' 'sex.'"

"No, I'm not," I said. "We're all out. How about ravioli?"

"Yeaaaaaaaaah!"

That is too freakin funny! You need to tell her to ask her mom that.

That is just priceless!

So, uh, where exactly is that mall?

If I could actually get sex at the mall, I might go out there more often during my breaks at the bookstore.

Aside from that, I do think pepperjack cheese is kind of sexy, in a spicy sort of way.

(p.s. Was there some kind of election process used to select all you Hot Dads?)

@ for a different kind of girl -I asked all of the mommies out there in blogland and Twitterville to let me know who they thought the hottest daddy bloggers were...then I invited them. Got any other suggestions?

You've filled this with an impressive roster, to say the least. Additionally, I'm totally seduced by Always Home and Uncool, so that's 100 percent hot right there!

Way to avoid the question

Frankly, I don't think he avoided it enough-- at that age, I would have constructed an elaborate ruse about how it was some kind of Thai noodle dish, going so far as to create a Wikipedia entry for it and setting up a redirect from the actual page.

I figure "Bangkok" alone helps support my story.

Dan - I can't say or type the 'B' word b/c it makes me titter. Oops, bad choice of words.
