Ten Things a Navy SEAL Would NEVER Say (plus one super bonus selection)

TGIF! We get to celebrate Fridays, but to our men and women in uniform, Friday is just like any other day. But in the spirit of the upcoming weekend, the upcoming RT Convention where several of us from this blog will be signing books, I'm going to put forth a lighter workout.

So, in my twisted way, here are the Ten Things (actually eleven) A Navy SEAL Would NEVER Say:

10. I loved every minute of BUD/S because it was a great male bonding experience.

9.  Hop and Pop? Is that some new kind of dance move?

8.  Too much action stresses me out.

7.  Guns? I'm kinda skittish about the noise and the kick.

6.  I need a full 8 hours of rest or I'm wasted the next day.

5.  I prefer my wife to be fully clothed because I like to use my imagination.

4.  I like it when things are quiet. I also love soft music. I dream about little boats floating on an inlet somewhere in sunny San Diego.



3.  We'd prefer to be working than home for the holidays.

2.  I was a good, obedient child growing up. Good grades in school. I never caused problems for my
parents.

1.  Do these cami's make my butt look too big?

And the LEAST likely thing a Navy SEAL would say Special Bonus:  I hope one day, if I work hard enough, I can join the Army.

    1. I can only imagine, Bethanne! Although, the SEALs sometimes use advisors from other branches, and they do love their brothers and sisters, but the Navy is their life.

  3. Number two made me chuckle :). Based on that telling nugget of info, I think it's safe to say that neither of my boys will wind up as SEALs. (They couldn't anyway, since we're Canadian, but you know what I mean.)

    1. Oh happy for you, Kaylea. My experience wasn't such. In fact a "little school, lotta sports" was the ticket in my home. I'm sure your boys will be called to worthy careers. Your adventurous attitude will go a long way to instilling in them a love of the outdoors and excitement!
