So I just got a phone call from my loving husband and he says, "Do you think we will go camping sometime soon?" Now let me clarify a fews things for you. I have been camping ONCE when I was like 10. I don't think he has EVER been camping. I don't even know where you would go to "camp out." In other words, WE don't know ANYTHING about camping. So I say, "Why do you ask?"
Brad: "Because I am at Sam's and they have a HUUUUGE 10-person tent on sale for only $53.35!!!"
Me: "When would we ever go camping with 10 people?"
Brad: "And it's got two rooms, a divider, even a porch!"
Me: "We don't know how to camp."
Brad: "It's the last one left and everyone keeps looking at it like they are going to get it. I think I'm going to get it!"
Me: "Are you serious right now?"
Brad: "I'm going to get it. I'll be by in a little while for you to see it!"
Me: "Ok??"
A few minutes later, he shows up with a look on his face like he has just received Alabama-Auburn tickets. He proudly pulls down his tailgate and does a little "TA-DA" hand gesture. I look at the box, I look at him.
Brad: "The picture on the box is not deceiving. It really is that big!"
Me: "Do you even know how to camp?"
Brad: "How hard could it be? I probably won't set a record putting it together, but it can't be that hard."
(Famous last words, I think to myself)
Me: "So when are you planning on going camping? It's too hot right now."
Brad: "We could camp out in the back yard tonight!!!"
Me: "I don't THINK so. You can. I'll camp out in the bedroom with the air conditioning and tv."
(Silence)
Brad: "This could be your birthday present to me!"(Silence)
Me: "Happy Birthday."
So we are the proud new owners of this:
I know you are probably saying to yourself "Wow. I wish I could camp in a tent like that." Don't worry, it holds 10 people! You should join us as we camp out in the back yard tonight??
