I laughed until I nearly peed on this one. Sorry, but I can just mentally picture both of your faces in this situation (though I must admit, the thought of you guys doing it in the living room is much akin to visions of my parents that I bury in my mental minds eyes as deep as I can).
I can not wait for the version of this with Leta that will invariably come some time down the road…can’t wait, I tell you! George barging in was funny. But you two reacting to Leta making a surprise appearance will be too much. Believe me, I’ve been there, and there is no reaction you had to George that possibly comes close to turning your head to find your five year old’s face eye level with yours while in the midst of, well, you know. Let’s just say my husband nearly made a trip to the ER because not only did I literally push him off me with full force, (much to his shock because he had not seen the child yet) but I kicked him right between the legs in my freak out! His agony and our nakedness only made her die with laughter at the “game” we were playing, LOL.
And please pass kudos to Heather on the “naked mom butt” line. I bout fell over laughing on that one. You guys are priceless.

Dude - you have an Ann Coulter ad on your site, right next to your sidebar that shows you’re listening to NPR.
My head hurts.

Been there, done that, have the (lack of) tee-shirt to prove it.
And trust me, it’s far worse when your four year old daughter walks in while you are trying to conceive boy #2.
Actually, now that I think about it, we’ve been caught by almost every one of our kids. Who’s going to pay for all that therapy, that’s what I want to know.

paul, pay no heed to right-wing trannies or their tactics.
July 30th, 2007 at 9:23 pm
My eyes!
hee. That is some serious funny! I’m with Amy, there was crying over here with the laughing so hard. The look of incredulity that I could imagine on your face was priceless!
And Jon D. not for nothing but maybe you should get a lock for your bedroom?
July 30th, 2007 at 9:52 pm
I’m eagerly anticipating GEORGE!’s account of the incident.
July 30th, 2007 at 10:14 pm
the best part?
“my sickly white mom-buttocks”
because dude, sickly white mom buttocks all look the same. and I can picture it in my mind. ha!
July 30th, 2007 at 11:25 pm
That one is a complete laugh riot.
Totally visualized the whole thing while peering thru my fingers thrown across my eyes.
Heather and Jon, the sex bloggers. Oh, and don’t forget about GEORGE!

I AM DYING OVER HERE!
Made all the more funny because of course I had a very similar thing happen. Only my daughter’s line was “DON’T BITE IT, DADDY!”
I guess it’s the Human Condition.
Or something.

Didn’t you just tell us you were fantastic in bed? Now we are to surmise that fantastic-ness extends to the living room!
Waiting for GEORGE! to comment….

I about died laughing. I am sorry. I really think it’s hilarious. But I had one that would top that, your future mother in law walks in… that was horrible at the time. We(MIL and I) still don’t talk about it, but between me and the hubs we think it’s crazy that I wasn’t killed and he wasn’t maimed and somewhat funny… we were 19 at the time.
Hormones… they get you every time!

Speaking of sex, Ms. Coulter could really use some of the back door variety. Or, at the very least, some head to headboard, tied up and uncomfortable hard stuff. I think.
At the very least some poor sod should give her an orgasm already.

It’s enough to have a hot wife who still wants to hit it with you. Even better if she wants to tell the world about it. Stand proud, my friend.
July 31st, 2007 at 9:51 am
Just sit GEORGE! down and explain “When a mommy and daddy love each other very much…” etc., etc.
I’m sure he’ll get over the trauma eventually!
July 31st, 2007 at 10:13 am
George may just get some good tips he can use.
July 31st, 2007 at 10:20 am
I’m impressed with your vaulting-over-the-couch athleticism. No wonder Heather still likes to bop you.
BTW, there are thousands of professionals out there who WISH they were rocking and rolling with their wives in the living room. You are their hero.
July 31st, 2007 at 10:29 am
I agree with southerngirl, I think you just increased your Professional cred by 100 percent. You are a super hero for the modern age.
July 31st, 2007 at 10:44 am
I still respect you, Jon. Really, I do.
July 31st, 2007 at 10:53 am
Jon, what goes on between two consenting adults in the privacy (or lack thereof) in their own living room is non of my business. Well, now it is my business as your wife as written about it in her blog, and I have shot cola out of my nose. . .
What I am trying to say is. . . I still respect you on a professional level, and would hire you any time. You do know how to program and ETC Expression with Emphasis Upgrade don’t you?

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
Brilliant. I love that despite how clever she is in so many situations, with sharp remarks and witty comebacks at her disposal, the one thought that crossed your wife’s mind when she was about to be caught naked in her living room was to partially cover herself with a too-small pillow. Or, to close her eyes.
I also love that you were the one with the presence of mind to tell her to leave the room.
Thanks for the laugh guys. Hee.

bwahaha
bow chika bow wow…

HA!!! HA!!! HA!!!
It’s so good to know we (me & hubby) are not the only ones.
Our oldest @ 5 yrs. old. It’s almost 1 am. I am sweaty. He is too. We have been at it for awhile. Suddenly……
a little voice… “Daddy, what r u doing?”
In a split second my husband is kneeling before our 5 year old asking what he needs as I am scrambling for something to cover myself with.
“I have to go potty……what are you doing?”
I am staring hard at my husband thinking don’t blow it, come up with something good. My husband responds, “I was just giving mommy a special hug.” My 5 year old looks at me, “Yes, Neo, Mommy wanted a hug.”
All I can think about to this day is I wonder how long he was standing there. At what age is it will he realize what a “special hug” is and will he tell anyone?
Secondly, do all men respond the same in crisis? My usually very laid back hubby too becomes very demanding and bossy when in crisis mode. LOL Great post
July 31st, 2007 at 3:30 pm
Funniest. Post. Ever. “Mom buttocks”, every time I think about it I giggle,,, because I can relate.
July 31st, 2007 at 3:37 pm
Too funny!
Now I can really justify having sex while still living at home- you can get dressed at the speed of light.

I guess next time you’ll be wanting one of these for the door:
