It feels like he's been testing me lately. To see where my limits are. To understand what I would to and not do. I think he feels like he hit a balk a week ago. And now he's exploring, unwilling to hear another "no".
Which is interesting, because he didn't hit a "no" that night at all. In fact, I did what he had said, although I admit I was a bit sulky about it.
So last night, I made some comment about how I didn't want to be naked, which he sort of wanted, because I needed to do my yoga practice.
And he pursued it.
"Why couldn't you do yoga naked if I told you to?"
"Well I could, I guess, but I meant to do it in the living room."
"Why couldn't you do naked yoga in the living room?"
"Well, it's right in full view of the big glass front doors. And one of the kids was home with a friend."
"So, it's not that you can't it's that you wouldn't be comfortable right?
"So no Sir, I wouldn't be very comfortable."
"Oh, I know you'd prefer not to. That's not the issue to me here. I knew that part."
"I don't think they want to see me do naked yoga either."
"So you'd agree that if I chose to have you do naked yoga in the living room, you would."
"Yes Sir, sure. You seem to be testing me."
I think he's just making sure the lines were where he thought they were. Which is just this side of mayhem and murder on his behalf.
Yes Sir, I'd do naked yoga in the living room. And try to think up a reason for it if I got caught. It's good for the chakras?

You gotta love those chakras! I like your final decision. Just took Us awhile to get there. Is that considered balkiness too? I think not this time, just clarification.
Generally I avoid naked yoga because of the danger of being suffocated by my own breasts.
ahem
oh
no one asked me?
wow -- embarrassing.

@sfp...*giggle*

Very good line drawing. Got to admire it.
(I deleted my previous comment because I forgot and was communicating in typo-ese.This is an English language blog after all)
Turn the heat way up, and you could say you are practicing Bikram yoga.
(A couple of clamps and some rope would take care of the problem, sfp. Technically, I guess you wold no longer be naked, but ... Just sayin")
It's fun to see just where the lines are..and if you can scuff them up...just a little bit.
LOL - absolutely ~ love that naked yoga, and I'm sure your kid's friend would recover some day. After a couple years of therapy. Which his parents would want you to pay for.
Just saying.
And sfp ~ i started to giggle and ended up laughing out loud.

@Master of Sin, no way was it balkiness.
@SFP, I'm with Nilla - omg you make me laugh.
Anon, yep, good line drawing. Quite artistic.
LM, I was thinking the same thing, about the Bikram. And what a great suggestion for SFP with the clamps. You are so helpful. In kind of s switchy way.
@Goddess, mmm, scuffing the line. Or at least thinking about maybe doing it.
@Aisha, by chance, the kid that was home was an adult niece, and her friend was a 24 year old boy/man. Not a little boy, but not someone I'd really want to see me naked either. So he probably wouldn't need that much therapy. I hope.
@Sin,
i was just trying to be funny anyhow... you know, i used to sometimes tell my kids when they were indignant about something, "Write it down so you can tell your therapist when you're grown." It was no reflection on you.
