I did the same thing but I also wanted to see how warm it was so I filled the bath tub up with water and a few bags of ice. I was remarkably comfortable until my wife come home early from work and give me the weirdest look ever.
If your wife is a diver, she should understand. It's too hard not to play with new scuba toys! That sounds like something I would do....

He didn't seem to be phased by a guy in a wetsuit answering the door, but I reckon those guys see all kinds of wacky stuff.
I am a UPS driver and I have never had anyone answer the door in a wetsuit in 25 years. Various stages of undress, or nothing at all, but never in a wetsuit.

She is. I think she is just jealous that she hasn't bought a wetsuit yet and that I was playing with mine.

I tried on a 3mm in a scuba shop and one of the teeth on the zipper broke off near the top as it was being zipped up. Needless to say they had to use a tank to blow air up my arms to keep me cool while I had three employees and my wife working to get it off. I think I scared the 4 people coming in to rent gear, but provided laughter for all. They eventually had to cut the thing off me.
