Preggers Scare
Hi Kids. I know I haven't been around in a while. And, of course when I come back it's to vent!
Baloo and I are doing great. I've found out that being in a relationship is truly hard work. Everyday isn't a struggle. In fact, most days are wonderful. However, there are those days when either he does something stupid or I do something stupid and we both have to find it in our hearts to forgive and just know that each of us is an idiot.
With that being said I have one piece of advice. A pregnancy scare does not make a good April Fools Day joke.
I have an awkward sense of humor. In fact, my best friend once played a terrible joke on me that included a phantom phone call to my place of business. I won't go into the details here, but I was pretty pissed at the time it happened. It took me about a day to get over it. And, even though we still kid about it to this day, I can look back and chuckle at the situation.
I often forget that Baloo is a sensitive person. Which I'm learning to appreciate his sensitivity, but at times I have a lapse in judgment. I wanted to play on April Fool's joke on him, but I wasn't sure what to do. I struggled for a long time about the preggers scare and even consulted a mutual friend. She thought it was hilarious. So on Sunday, we had a nice day of tennis and grilling. It wasn't until about 8 that I decided to pull the joke. Apparently it wasn't funny. I didn't let it go on for very long. No more than about 2 minutes because I couldn't keep a straight face. Baloo wasn't amused. After sincerely apologizing and him forgiving me, he was still upset. It's the next day and although I called him to wish him a good day this morning, I could tell that he was still upset. Sigh. I guess that means I'll have to buy him something expensive to get back on his good side. And I've learned that apparently preggers scares aren't amusing.
