Only The Scientists Knew

It's taken awhile, in fact, it's taken 11 years of marriage, but my husband is finally 35. Who knew how great 35 would be......besides the scientists?? I read a couple of years ago that medical science has shown that men's neurons in their brains do not properly connect on making logical decisions until about the age of 35. 35 is finally here and it's amazing....no joke. My husband did something supremely stupid right before his birthday, when he was a mere 34, I won't go into details as he doesn't probably want his embarrassment out there for all my friends to read, but it was just stupid, like not even worth not telling me about stupid.....oh yeah, and selfish. Anyhu, I found out about it....because I'm not stupid and he must be to think I wouldn't...duh. Well, a day afterward, I got one of the most if not the most sincere apology I have ever gotten in my life. It was amazing. Then he finished the week off by doing the dishes, asking if I had any plans or if it was okay if he went on a mountain bike ride on his day off, checking with me before going out with his friends on Saturday night, and being home - not just on time but early for a day when I'm taking an exercise class. I know.....this is crazy shit. I would think it was guilt related, but it doesn't seem to be. I think those neurons are finally connecting and regular things that are logical to the rest of us, have finally kicked in for him. Those 11 years of waiting are finally paying off.
