Yeah, W used to say I like to play with boys more than girls. I explained to him my whole life has been pretty much surrounded by boys/men- both my husband and my family pretty much only produce boys, only a few girls scattered in here and there, and in my profession back when I first started out it was mostly men. So I guess it's a comfort zone for me. W said he kind of surmised that by my interaction. However, if I feel at all uncomfortable, I will do NOTHING but back off. There has to be mutual respect with the bantering, and all in all, it has pretty much been that way here.

Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy female company as well. That's why it's nice to have you on here. In fact, I hadn't had extended girl time for so long that I think that's why I didn't want to come back home between staying with my cousin and then my sister. It was a blast! My friends around here are all so busy - many still work full-time or are very involved with their family.
