Putting On the Man Pants

I actually had to pull on my "Man Pants" yesterday. I will periodically have these moments when I feel like the helpless female. They usually involve flat tires or car maintenance or large appliance failures. Yesterday mom and I realized that the pilot light was out on the water heater. Naturally, Richard was out of town, and Dad was at a meeting, and the instructions for relighting the pilot made me feel like it was probable I would explode the house. So I pulled on my Man Pants and decided that those warnings were totally bogus. I whipped out the butane lighter and fired that puppy up! Huzzah, a hot shower! I am woman, hear me roar!
