Boys Will Be Boys
Today my nephews are going somewhere with their Mom and step-dad. Finding clean boxers and socks or un-wrinkled clothes seems to be an incredible challenge. One that cannot be overcome.
"when they start dating they'll take better care of their clothes"
They are 11 and 13.
My fear is that when that time comes they will wonder why they aren't getting any dates, rather than changing their hygiene habits.

About Me
- Name: Melminda
- Location: United States
Once upon a long time ago, I was:
"Butterflies, moonbeams, zebras and Fairy tales".
Now I am:
Mayflies (Mosquito-eaters), Comets, Elephants and Documentaries.
When I was 17 I lived in "Highgrove" Riverside County, California. Every weekday between 4:00 - 6:00 PM the traffic would be gridlocked on Iowa Avenue. Up the road at the main intersection there was a row of homes. Flats, really. One story flat roofed homes. One of the homes had a lot of junk and rusty cars all around it. A pair of mid to large sized dogs had climbed the piles of junk onto the roof and they stood there barking - incessantly - at the traffic waiting on the light. Those dogs just standing there atop their house of what looked like worthless junk barking (bitching and moaning) at people on their own paths, doing something, going somewhere, became a metaphor for so many people that stand on their own pile of crap spending their energy barking at and about other's that are mostly inconsequential to them but unfortunately close enough to be noticed by them. We all have probably been a roof dog at one time or another, some briefly, some incessantly.
