It&#8217;s been crazy busy planning birthdays and celebrating and then fitting all that stuff in between!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The other day I found myself in a very weird moment. \u00a0I was in the local Army Surplus store with Tyler, learning the ins and outs and purchasing a G&amp;G Armament UMG. \u00a0Yah, that&#8217;s what I would have said a few weeks ago&#8230; but now, my life is all about airsoft guns and hosting airsoft events.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As I stood at the counter, listening to this very grown man excitedly explain the ins and outs of the gun, I found myself wondering how in the world I am existing in this world of testosterone? \u00a0I wondered if I still have any feminineness in my being? \u00a0I actually glanced down to check and make sure my boobs were still there, that with all the testosterone, they had not melted away. \u00a0Sigh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tyler asked if he could had a few boys over to play airsoft over the weekend? \u00a0I said, &#8220;Sure.&#8221; \u00a0Never mind that Sanj was away in sunny Phoneix at a conference, that I was already having a party\/sleepover for Max that evening and and was single parent the weekend&#8230; Sure, was my reply. \u00a0I mean, what&#8217;s another 3-4 more boys?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I ran out, picked burgers, salad stuff and chips. \u00a0Birthday cake and some party stuff. \u00a0I came home and saw that Tyler and some of his friends were hanging in the backyard ready to plan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I went about my business, cleaning out the basement so that Max&#8217;s friends could hang out. \u00a0Tyler came and let me know they were starving and ready to eat. \u00a0I came upstairs to see 15 big teenage boys, eaten through the snacks I&#8217;d bought for Max&#8217;s party, the chips and looking like they were ready to eat me.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is what I saw on Tyler&#8217;s Facebook status later:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Airsoft at my house, tommorrow.
