Babies

[oceantheorem]

Everyone is having babies. A couple of LJ friends just had babies, a guy in my guild just had twins, a good friend from high school is due in July, and I found out yesterday two different cousins are newly pregnant.

I am still the old unwed shrew. Not that I have any desire to have kids, but honestly. I feel like a serious minority.

In other news, Cassie apparently made a startling recovery after they put her on pain medication, so my dog is not dying. Claire apparently discovered Cassie's dog door and is now a semi-outdoor cat and is ecstatic about life in general.

I am knitting infant clothing. Since I'm starting on infant clothing for twins, and I knit approximately one stitch per month, by the time your new infant is having his or her own infants, I will have completed infant clothing I can gift to him/her.

And now I'm going to go drink a lot of Irish beer, because I am tired and stressed out about life, and it's some sort of holiday or something. Also I've been inexplicably cranky for five days now. Definitely time for beer.

Aw I totally understand what you mean about everyone being pregnant. Everywhere I look someone is having a baby.

And you're not a shrew...and certainly not old. You have been working on school and other things in your life. You shouldn't feel pressured to be married and have kids.

*hugs*

I'm glad to hear about Cassie! Maybe we should get her some more whales to eat now that she's feeling better?

This made me laugh. :-)

Give me a call sometime this week if you get a chance. It's always good to hear from you.
