He will blame me for this

June 3rd, 2009

I always laugh, KP gets almost everything he hears only half right. Tomorrows blog post will certainly give you a good picture of what I am talking about. But today’s post will show you where he may have gotten it from.

Monday night our whole family was sitting in the bleachers watching CT’s baseball game. It was getting dark and late, the kids were filling up on concession stand crap as a result of soccer and baseball running right through dinner time and into dusk.

PJ left her hot dog wrapper on her seat. I picked it up, crumpled it into a ball and threw it from my seat into to garbage can, since I still couldn’t walk right.

As the foil ball went straight into the can, the following conversation unfolded.

Me: yelling, Oh Yeahhhh…MOOOOONEY SSHHHHHOT!

Adam gives me a startled look.

PJ: Mom, what’s a money shot?

Me: A money shot is when you make it right in, it’s like the best shot you can make.

PJ: I wanna make a money shot. Money shot, money shot, money shot.

Adam: Now starting to shake his head and looking at me mouthing, What are you saying? Honey no, that’s not what it means!

KP: Can I make a money shot mom?

Me: Sure!

KP & PJ: Now chanting, Money shot, money shot, money shot.

Adam proceeds to tell me in a hushed tone that a money shot has more to do with the porn world then with me making the said shot into the garbage can.

As he illuminated my world, I couldn’t stop laughing. How priceless is it that our kids are chanting porn slang at the oh so whole some baseball game.

If you read to the very end of the Wikipedia definition, you will find that I am just about half right, in a very obscure way.

    I am almost laughing too hard to type… My mental image of Adam’s disturbed and vigorous shaking of his head will forever bring me comic relief in any future dark hour of my life…

    Obviously the Catholic Education you and my wife received at BSM did not prepare you for the real world. Remember, A is the one who Googled “little girl’s muff” and was “surprised” by the results.

    LMF AO. You have lived a very sheltered, yet speedy and competitive life. I can relate to the language thing, though. I said something that turned out to mean not what I thought it meant in front of only two people 11.5 years ago. I will never forget that moment and I am suddenly so thankful I didn’t shout it out loud at a bball game in front of a bunch of MB parents. This is a happy moment at your expense. I’m sorry but I can’t not feel the way I feel right at this moment.

    PS Mine’s too embarrassing to even write about. You could waterboard me and I probably wouldn’t tell.

    It was BAAADDDDD. And I had no clue.
