Roller Skating, as an adult

Let me just preface this by saying we have the freakiest den leader EVER in cub scouts. She flirts and flirts and flirts with my husband (aka the asst. den leader) and does so in front of me and her own husband. She thinks all 225+ lbs of her is God's gift to EVERYONE around and that she is stunningly beautiful, funny, the whole picture. Got that image in your mind? Good....let me tell you her name, and then you will never ever forget her, ever. MARSHA! As in, "Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!" It gets me everytime (insert knee slapper!)

Anywho....the pack of scouts went skating last night and I just couldn't wait to get there to compete for my husband over roller skates with the den leader. We get there, get skated up, she's sitting there talking to us, blah blah, blah, when I notice she is not skating up herself? Hmmmmm. She tells me she can't WAIT to see Terry skate...really, I wouldn't kid. She's gonna make fun of him and watch his every move to see if he messes up. I tell her that unless she has skates on herself, she cannot give commentary. She laughs me off, but I think she sensed that I wasn't joking. So I guess I found her one flaw....she can't skate. No balance! Who would've guessed?

Halfway thru the event, I roll up to her (my kiddos were sitting near her sipping on slushies) and she tells me that Terry isn't bad at all on skates....she's been watching (she's telling me this, I'm not making it up!!) OH REALLY? So I get Terry's attention on the rink and tell him Marsha is checking him out, watching his every move. We part ways, my watching out for the kids, Terry giving Marsha something to watch herself and then he surprises me. Of all things, a song from High School Musical comes on and he comes up behind me, grabs my hand and we skate hand in hand just like we were in Jr High or a Lifetime movie! AWWWWW! Did you catch that, Marsha???? Huh, huh, did ya? Yeah, I still got it.

HA...you are too funny! Did the kids have fun? I'd be scared Nicholas would fall once and it would be all over!

Hilarious! I am sure it makes Terry feel good to have you a little jealous!
Not jealous of her exactly, but of someone flirting with him.
