gah. babies. i am sort of trying to like babies. there are two of them in my life - my niece alyson, and the vet's son ash. ash is 1 and half, and i have an easier time with him. he likes to play and imitates the dog and doesn't seem to cry. alyson is ~6 months and cries. not an inordinate amount, according to my mom, but still. gah. i have a hard time dealing with it. baby horses don't cry. and baby dogs and cats don't cry unless they are hurt. baby humans cry just for the fuck of it! i hate it. i am trying to do better. but i really, really hate it. i totally bail whenever alyson cries. "here ya go fran/mom ... i've got some important... uh... reading... to do..." gah. babies. i take this as further confirmation that i should adopt, if ever i'm in a position to have kids. i've always liked the idea, and older children (who are the ones that i would want) have a harder time finding homes anyway. why in the flying fuck everyone wants babies is beyond me. gah. babies.
in other news, i'm glad about the election results. i hope the momentum lasts through 2008.
