hot tub
Kate and I never want a nice, expensive home. I do however, want a hot tub. That's my goal in the next 5 years, well, maybe ten at this rate, to get a hot tub whereever we live.
I've been kind of searching the city for one that I could get into fairly cheap. I'll be honest, free. Well, I found one.
I got up one morning last week at 6am to go over to the hot tub for a while. I wanted to have the place to myself and thought that'd be the best bet. I got in the tub, nobody was there and everything was going according to plan. I closed my eyes for a few moments and opened them to discover there was a middle-aged woman sitting right next to me in the hot tub. I mean, shoulder to shoulder. The hot tub could fit 10, but she chose to cozy up next to me. A little weird, but I closed my eyes and tried to ignore it. I opened again to discover that an additional woman had sat next to me on the other side.
So if you can picture me in between two older woman with the rest of the hot tub completely wide open, you could understand my confusion, and predicament. They weren't trying to hit on me, in fact weren't interested in a conversation. But why so close? I began to ask myself if it was some cultural issue where I needed to redefine my understanding of personal space. I don't think so.
Anyways, I tried to wait it out because I had mesh shorts on and they're a bit "clingy" without getting too graphic, and didn't want to have a show for the ladies. I ended up sitting in between them, shoulder to shoulder for a solid half-hour and didn't enjoy myself one bit.
But at least I was in a hot tub.

Crazzzyy. I was waiting for the punch line that you discovered yourself in the Ladies Room, as I have twice. How do you get a free hot tub? We enjoyed sitting in one on the 12th floor rooftop of the Omni overlooking Austin this weekend. Hi from Jay and Jill.
Whoa, Dave! I think I'd get to the bottom of that one so as to not have a repeat experience. Where were you, anyways?

it's amazing to see the opportunities the Lord keeps providing for you to minister. "become all things to all men..."
dave, you've been married for over a year now, it must be nice to know you've still got IT, and that the schmidgall charm has international appeal.
Hey Dave, I don't think it's cultural, it's just eccentricity. Sorry my friend you were just unlucky.
