My cover's been blown...

saifaiMy hubby is like Xander sometimes. He gets himself in the weirdest of situations. Take this weekend for example.
He went fishing yesterday. A couple he works with, Charlene and Kathy, went camping this weekend and invited him to stop by if he was in the area. As it turns out, since there was a full moon (which father-in-law insists adversely affects fishing) and it was hot, he got bored and took them up on the offer.
Imagine his surprise when he shows up to find 15 of their closest friends there. Bonus? He's the only straight guy in the bunch. Kathy's straight sister was there too, but managed to escape the razzing.
From what he tells me, he managed to get along just fine when they all ganged up on him determined to make him blush with the lesbian jokes. That is until another co-worker, David, started in on the gay jokes from his perspective.
Hubby didn't stand a chance.
Long story short, hubby talked a bit about me and ended up taking samples of two of my stories with him to show to David (hubby went back today to help bail out stranded camper). He rather figured he might like a bit of slash.
We shall see. Unfortunately my "she's so sweet and innocent" cover has been completely blown.
Damnit.

Date: 2006-07-17 02:42 pm (UTC)My hubby is totally happy about me reading and writing slash and has even beta'd me. But I don't think he shared that fact with his workmates. ;o)

I'm rather surprised hubby did actually, but I'll take what I can get. :)
