Neither of them will want to stop on the road - they’ll just want it over with. MIL called a bit ago - she wasn’t able to talk to her sister last night but she plans to call later this morning, so it’s still TBD. Last night was movie night at Daughter’s domicile: [![Imgur](https://i.imgur.com/vgpzGTM.jpeg "Imgur: The magic of the Internet") ](https://imgur.com/vgpzGTM) I don’t know what they were watching. I hope they stay close as they get older. I’m not particularly close to any of my sibs, probably mostly because I left home at 19 while they all stayed in the Baltimore area to this very day. None of them ever had any desire to live elsewhere and I never had any desire to return to Charm City. I think back to all the times my mom told me “You’re the oldest - you need to set an example!” Well, we see how that worked out… 😉 Don’t get me wrong - I don’t feel any animosity towards any of them - we’re just not particularly close. OK, it’s after 8 and spousal unit is still abed. Guess I’ll read till he gets up. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-pumpkin-spice-bleck-mmp-old/991304)._
