I have three daughters, a wife, and a female dog. I can survive multiple monthly cycles at a time.

However….

…tonight I have an extra SEVEN girls in the house for my youngest's 10th Bday. My wife and oldest laugh at my pain.

A few beers, some tylenol, and one dog walk later and I'm about to set up the Patrol w/ bug bivy in the back yard.

Earplugs, unless you are in charge of their safety…nah, earplugs even then.

They will grow up and you miss it. Really. With 20 year olds around, I really don't like the other type sleep overs…

Hi Todd,

How did it go?

I felt the EXACT same way during my middle school daughter's slumber party in February, until our freshman son's slumber party last weekend.

It took three days to decontaminate the "dirty socks" smell out of the house.
