I having dinner with my family and friends at some fancy restaurant and my sister suddenly starts bringing up past girlfriends of mine and saying that she's surprised with my recent choices. When I asked her why, she simply said that they've been rather.... plain. A far cry from the more "exotic" choices in the past. I was a little surprised by this statement, but she did have a point. I usually went with the "unusual" rather than your average "plain Jane" variety. I told her that maybe, just maybe my tastes in women has evolved beyond the mere physical. Maybe I've considered a woman's personality more than her looks.
My sis pondered this for about half a second and started laughing in my face along with most of the table.
I kinda chuckled myself.
She then told me that she didn't want some "plain looking" nieces or nephews from me and her future sister in law must be as "fabulous" as she is. She won't be seen shopping with anything less! Then she started going down a list of who would be the perfect match for me and who would produce the most beautiful cousins for her own kids to play with and so on.
Sheesh... I do so love it how my life is being planned out for me.
I eventually grabbed her niece's Santa puppet and exploited her unusual fear of the things. That shut her up! Don't know HOW that ever happened. Maybe it's when I used to torment her with a rather evil looking cookie monster puppet when she was a toddler. Yeah, waking up to a blood stained, googly eyed, blue furred thing staring at you with the dead, cold plastic gaze of unspeakable evil would traumatize most 4 year olds.
