Dear Alfalfa ...

This picture was taken in 1996 in Ephraim, Utah. (My glasses were HUGE!)

I have always been the girl who has spent most of her time as "one of the guys". In high school and college and even now I have always had close guy friends. I am just more comfortable with guys than I am with girls and lucky for me I have some amazing guys that are apart of my life.

So one of the interesting things that I have noticed since acquiring roommates is just how different girls and guys are. I mean, of course I have known that there were differences before now, but seeing that recently I have chosen to spend the majority of my time with guys I guess I have just forgotten some of the odd things girls do.
  • Girls are more vocal. They like to talk (or worry) about things more than guys do. Guys are more likely to do than think.
  • Girls leave a lot more hair in the sink.
  • Girls smell better. We like candles and smelly lotion.
  • (Most) girls don't eat as much as guys. My guys friends are "peckish".
  • Girls are a lot more complimentary. If you look good they tell you. (I do have a couple of guy friends that are good at this though!) - who knows - maybe girls are just more observant!
  • Guys seem to talk about kissing a lot more than girls do. And care wether or not they are better at it than the others in her life.
  • When a girl is going to go out, she worries more about what she is wearing and what her hair looks like.
  • Girls know the difference between the various appliances and utensils that can be found in the kitchen.
  • Girls like painting their toenails and waxing their eyebrows, and I highly doubt guys would ever think about doing that or want to if they did think about it.
  • Guys have a weird fascination with video games that few girls share.
  • In general, guys are more drawn to the physical. Girls are more worried about how the guy will treat her. Not that a good looking guy doesn't catch her eye.

I am sure there are more, these are just some that come to mind. And after reading this, as much as I love spending time with the guys, I am definitely all girl!

Guys who paint their toe nails ...? I have never met one. Yes, you heard me. In California, I have never met them.

Where do you meet them, holly?

I actually have met a guy who we helped paint his toenails but he would never admit to it afterwards.
