A typical woman!

Today I had to take Mari and Xavier to the Dr. to be checked for strept and a persistent cough. We were greeted by Michelle, a cheerful triage nurse. Michelle asked Mari to step on scale and before she got on the scale she told Michelle "I need to take off my jacket (sweatshirt) and my tennis shoes so you get my "real" weight". Michelle and I looked at each other and laughed in amazement that Mari would care what her "real" weight was.

I guess the weight issue is embedded in a woman's brain from birth (well maybe not as Xavier did the same thing)!
