When I married MJ, one of the perks was gaining a whole new kick ass family. Shelby is a tennis player on her high school team, and since I had the day off yesterday I figured I would surprise her by showing up with Will to her tennis match. Unfortunately, Will was a little TOO excited to see her. As soon as he saw her he tried to rush the court.
When I told him no, he then went to the fence and tried to climb it. So my mom, who came with us, took him for a car ride so I could watch Shelby play for a while. But I quickly realized that a year-old standing alone watching a girls varsity high school tennis team is bound to raise a few eyebrows.
In short, I quickly began feeling like quite the pedophile. Especially since, as I told Shelby after the match, I really wish the tennis uniform companies would make more conservative outfits. Because as well as her team played and as proud as I was of Shelby, the old-fashioned protective parent side of me was in full force when I had to listen to random high school students walk by and check out my cousin.
So yeah, I was midly uncomfortable and I think I was getting the stink-eye from some of the other folks there. But what really got me was toward the end of the match, when a guy came up to me and we began chatting. We talked a little bit about how the temperatures were dropping so quickly, and also about the match. What the fuck?? I did a double take to see if he was joking, but he clearly was not.
Or, he just thinks I look 10 years older than I really am, which makes me want to light myself on fire. But if he was just doing some reconnaisance because he thought I was a pedophile, then I really wish I had toyed with him. All that aside, I did have an ulterior motive to see Shelby play. So I went yesterday to support her, but also to scout her. Depending on the outcome of that game, stay tuned for a future blog entry. The youngest? I took my three year old daughter to a girls college soccer game. Eh, he was probably just seeing if you were a perv, you have a baby face.
If you had messed with him you could have gotten knocked out. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.
