Male Logic
My husband informs me this weekend that the reason I get so frustrated with he and the Monster is that my femaleness can’t handle all their male logic. Well, let me tell you. Male Logic is an oxymoron! How is it logical to take 14 trips to the laundry basket instead of picking up all the clothes at one time and making one trip? I don’t know. Honestly, that was just an example because I can probably count the number of times he has picked up clothes in the past year on one hand. Lol
I think the main difference between Husband and I is that he is very single minded. He sets his thoughts on one project or idea and must follow it through. I can think and do many things at a time and can be in various states of completion on each. To me it is poor time management skills to only work on one thing. When I cook dinner (ok, so that is rare in itself) I usually am folding laundry or emptying the dish washer between stirring.
Unfortunately my son is a miniature Daddy. They have the same way of thinking. We lost another toy right before bedtime again last night. No one was going to sleep until it was found. This happens far too often.
However, there is a major problem with two single minded guys in the house. They don’t seem to ever be on the same wavelength. One thinks we need to play this game RIGHT NOW while the other thinks we need to watch this show RIGHT NOW. (The two males are interchangeable here) Have you ever tried to watch a TV show while someone is hysterically laughing and jumping around? Can’t be done. It is a battleground that leads to tears and a lot of anger. And me? I drink a lot of wine.
I foresee multiple posts on this in the future.
