Silly Monkey Stories #43 - Toasted

 
USA 18/Apr/2009 – Carolina (12) and Juan (10)
 
We were talking about my imminent trip to USA and, trying to get the kids jealous, I tried to make them believe that I was going to spend the whole time at the beach (As if! I have slept two hours since yesterday at 6:00 AM). So I said that I was going to go to a tanning place and get really tanned (which in Spanish is the same word as ‘toasted’). That was enough for the kids to go into attack mode:
 
- You? Toasted? Bwahaahaa… Are they going to put butter on top of your belly?
- No, maybe maple syrup…
- No, no, scrambled eggs and bacon!!!
- Do you imagine the size of the toaster oven that will fit that butt?
 
And that wasn’t it yet, but I ran away crying… The kids are growing, evidently. This used to be easier –and less painful– for me.

Hablábamos de mi inminente viaje a USA y, tratando de poner celosos a los chicos, les quise hacer creer que me la iba a pasar en la playa (Como si pudiera! He dormido dos horas desde ayer a las 6:00 AM). Luego dije que me iba a ir a un lugar con camas solares para volver bien ‘tostado’. Eso fue suficiente para que los chicos pasaran al ataque:
 
- Vos? Tostado? Jaaaaaajajaja… Qué te vas a poner, manteca en tu panza?
- No, a lo mejor jarabe de maple…
- No, no, huevos revueltos con tocino!!!
- Te imaginás el tamaño de la tostadora para meter semejante c*lo?
 
Y eso no fue todo, pero yo salí corriendo llorando… Los chicos están creciendo, evidentemente. Antes era más fácil –y menos doloroso- para mí.
