So my (26f) husband (26m) is obsessed with football. Like to the point that it’s taking over all of his free time during the fall. We have a 7 month old little boy, and I’ve been trying for awhile to convince my husband to take a Saturday away from football so we can take our kid to the zoo for the first time. He’s had varying excuses, like it’s going to be too hot, there’s a big game that he wants to watch, or there’s too much stuff to do around the house, so I’ve let it go.
So tomorrow is going to be the first day in the area we live in where the weather is actually cooling off. I’ve been really excited all week thinking about what we should do with the first day it’s actually going to feel like fall weather and I mentioned to my husband this morning that I want to take our son to the zoo tomorrow morning since it will be so nice out. He agreed at first, because he loves cooler weather as well, but then he remembered that there’s a big college football game on tomorrow smack in the middle of when the zoo will be open. He wants to wait for the game to be over before going to the zoo, but at that point we’ll only have an hour or two left for the zoo to be open and we’ll miss the coolest time of the day. He’s also planning on going to a football viewing party all day on Sunday, so it’s not just like we can go then. I am working overtime the next few weekends, and I don’t know when the weather is going to be good again.
So, WIBTA if I just went without him and leave him to watch his football game? Or even if I said that I’m taking our son in the morning and he can choose to come with or not?
