Mom and Dad in LA

My parents came to visit and spend some quality time with my son Tanner. While they were out I had a pitch meeting I had to go to, so I dropped Tanner off at daycare and told my parents that I would be back in a couple of hours. I hoped they would sit back, relax and enjoy some quiet time in the city of angels. Five minutes into my trip I received a call informing me my meeting was rescheduled. So, I turned around and headed home and thats when it happened. The most horrifying thought popped into my head. "What if my parents were having sex!" I know, I know. Trust me, I know, but they are vacationing in Hollywood (adjacent) and you know how people are when they are on vacation, things happen, libido strikes etc., I'll stop there. Back to the story. I get home and now comes the big moment. I began the process of making all sorts of "I'm home way earlier than expected and I don't want an awkward moment noise". I slam the car door, a lot of key jingling, walking unecessarily loud on the wood floors, coughing, a fake sneeze, groaning all of which was useless considering both are hard of hearing. My heart was racing as I made my way to the family room where I last left the elderly duo. I still had no idea what I was in in for since all I could hear was HGTV blasting at 37 decibles. Then, I heard it, that all too familiar sound my parents make. The sound of the two of them arguing. They argue a lot, but not in a bad way. They argue in that I love you very much way. The only way you argue when you've been with the same person for over sixty years. It's passion, it's the I'm with you so much that you get on my nerves for no reason arguing...it's love, true love. Like many kids, I used to get upset when my parents argued in front of me, but when I started listenening to what they were arguing about it became rather amusing. There was no substance. And once it was done they always acted like it never happened. Kind of like what I would have had to do if I did catch them having sex. Suffice to say, I like it when my parents argue.
