Girlie Things

Day four of the invasion of the femibots, and I am learning some new things. First of all, it takes four women an exponential amount of time to get ready to go somewhere. You would think if it takes one female thirty minutes to get ready, all of them could get ready in that same time frame. Of course it does not work that way, and no, it does not take thirty minutes times four for all of them to get ready. It takes four hours for the ladies to do all their lady things before going out. This morning I watched one of the girls take two full hours to do her hair. It involved some kind of heating contraption, and filled the house with the foul odor of burning hair. I don’t remember my sisters being this way, but then again I really never did pay that much attention to their girl activities.

Another thing that I have discovered is that women require a lot of laundry time. My washer/dryer has been going non-stop since Sunday, and even loads involving my clothes have had various string shaped apparel mixed in. I realize it will all be over by Saturday morning, and I think I can take it until then. Chandler however, will be quite sad to see his new friends leave. For the last four days he has had more attention, more faces to kiss, and more treats than all the months before. He’ll just have to get over it.

  1. Alan...could you be a dear and look under the sink for a tampon? Thanks ever so. Please don't leave the toilet seat up either...

  2. Don't worry, Chandler has already found one of "those". It was not new in the wrapper either.

  3. At least you won't be calling your brother, the plumber, to unplug your sewer. You and Chandler can do it yourself.
