Last night, I had the pleasure of going to a Christmas Faire preview with some of the women in my family. My oldest sister arranged the outing, and she invited a friend, two of her sisters, one of her daughters, a daughter-in-law and a soon to be daughter-in-law. SHe would have taken all the women of the family, but some were too far away to participate in this evening out.
The preview included a buffet dinner, and the the chance to roam the fair for the evening. Of course we shopped right up to the last moment (and a few beyond.)
It was on the way home that I had the biggest laugh of the night. Soon To Be Daugher In Law (STBDIL) was sitting in the back seat of the car, and she said she had been trying to catch up on her reading lately. She likes the Oprah magazine, and she was currently immersed in the May issue. (A girl after my own heart…..I have about four months of four or five magazines to catch up on.)
STBDIL said that she had just read that research says men’s way of thinking is closer to that of a chimpanzee than to that of a woman.
(laughing) What more is there to be said???
