Another Difference Between the Sexes

The other evening as I was getting ready for bed, the thought crossed my mind that it would be wonderful if I was one of those people who didn't need very much sleep because I could accomplish so much more. Or better yet, what if I didn't need to sleep at all? I thought about what I would do in the next seven or so hours before my kids got up: go run some loads of laundry and fold clothes, go to the grocery store, pick up the family room and the play room, wipe down the counters and appliances in the kitchen, get some ironing done, get a jump start on dinner for the next evening, vacuum, organize my linen closets ... The list went on and on. Then I turned and looked at Adam and said, "What would you do if you didn't have to sleep for the next seven hours?" He thought for a minute and then said, "Read."

Yeah, that's just what I was thinking.
