I am an unusual fit, once in College I hit a goodwill type store and found a 3 piece suit and shoes that fit perfectly. My friend said, you know that somebody that is built just like you has just died... he was probably related.
Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

I roughly grabbed my cat the other morning. She was in my closet which is a big no no. The little shit twisted around 180 degrees and SANK her teeth and claws into my wrists. I was worried that it would get infected, but I have some serious anti-bacterial cream leftover from my chemo days. The area around the bite was bright pink for several days, but it never turned red. But the deepest tooth wound is right at the spot that my wrist lays on the desk while I use the mouse.
Shit. Why can't I get out of my head?
If you got out of your head wouldn't you be dead? Or would you be walking the ethereal plane watching everything as a ghost?
I missed my prescription earlier and my hand is crazy painful!
I also have no idea how to make the bandaids he gave me cover the whole thing.

I was about to rant about Skittles changing green from lime to sour apple but then I remembered that I never buy Skittles anyway.
Today I just really don't want to do dishes.

I'm glad you're showing such an interest in science, but Mommy hasn't had her coffee yet. This means Mommy cannot begin to fathom if a bunch of balloons (who knows how many is in the bunch and they are all "this big") could carry a 1 pound stool high enough into the air that the balloons would pop and send the stool flying back down to Earth. Next time wake up earlier and ask your father.
Are they African balloons or European?
Are you suggesting sitting stools migrate?
Nngh... I have an empty 5 gallon bucket and an empty 3 gallon carboy and they're just sitting in my kitchen and mocking me every time I go near it. There's no way that I'd have enough time to start a new mead before our move in August, but there are other things I could brew, and I've been holding off but don't know why. I suspect that on my way home I'm going to be stopping at the grocery store to pick up some lemon juice so I can make some Skeeter Pee.
I would never wish children on someone who didn't want them. I think it's great that you know exactly where you're at in life, and that you don't feel pressured into something that you're not comfortable with.
That said, I can't imagine a life without my daughter.

Children are wonderful, fascinating people, and that's why I live to teach them. But I'm not done being footloose and fancy free yet.It's nice hearing the parents on halforums talk about their kids. Makes me feel like it's a doable, not-so-scary thing. Eventually.

Ok so some of those stories are a little... overwhelming. But at least it doesn't sound boring. And he's so darn cute.
Well, you know... a time and a place.
On the other end of it, you have what my daughter did yesterday. She and my wife had been out grocery shopping, and Jessie had bought Rhiannon some things to finish off her Easter basket. Rhi turned to Jessie and said "Daddy basket please?"
They came home, with Jessie intending to wait until Sunday to give it to me, but Rhi begged her, so I got woken by "Daddy, close eyes please," then "Surprise!"
So it's not ALL poop and cock rings... *grins*

Well, there is a lot of poop in the beginning no matter what your child's personality is like. Thankfully those years go by quickly.
Ceej, no matter how long you wait or how ready you *think* you are, you're never truly prepared for having your own child. This is not a negative. It's a learning and growing adventure that you will have, discovering things that you've forgotten, and learning new things every day. I wouldn't trade my adventure with my daughter for the world, but I am glad that we had her when we were 25, because we're in our forties now and able to do what we want to do and have the money to do it.
Take it from someone with 3, I'd give anything to have only one child. To give them my undivided love/attention/finances. Splitting that between 2-3 children instead of being able to give it to one is my only regret of having multiple children.
We have two and my wife and I are strongly considering a third. That's even after the potty training that took years off my life and hair off my head.
This sounds kind of... cold... but I'm sure it was not meant that way.
