And We All Laughed Uncomfortably

I thought these books were so stinking cute!

Yesterday was Kohai's school open house and book fair. The PTA meeting was to start at 5:45 p.m. followed by the open house at 6 p.m. That meant I had to book it home from work with just enough time to unload my stuff, and sit in the living room for a few minutes catching up with my guys. To see how everyone's day had gone and to give the pugs their daily quota of pats and belly rubs.

The TV was on the Science Channel and Kohai was watching How It's Made when a commercial came on, and he asked a question.

Kohai: What is erectile die-function?

Hubs: You mean dysfunction?

Kohai: Yeah, I mean dysfunction. Is that when a guy can't get a boner?

A small silence followed by uncomfortable laughter.

Hubs: Yes, yes it is.

Me: (looking right at Kohai) Where did you hear that?

Hubs: What die-function or boner?

Me: (more laughter and rolling my eyes)

Because of his Aspergers, Kohai has no filters so he'll just bust out and ask any question, no matter the relevance or the situation. The Hubs and I agreed long before we had kids that we'd always encourage them to ask us any and all questions they may have, even the uncomfortable ones. The boys know that and they have, but out of the two of them I will say this though, Kohai keeps us on our toes. 

And thanks to products like and advertisements for Cialis, Levitra, Kotex and Always, I'm sure we'll have plenty more fits of uncomfortable laughter. Keep those questions coming, Kohai!
