I can't tell you how much it pisses me off when I mention wanting to have a baby and people (usually mothers) go: "Oh you say that now but just wait! It's not all fun and games!"..as though I've never seen one before in my life. You mean babies cry and shit a lot and they take up your entire lives?! Well hell, I thought I just put in an order for one, it was delivered and then I get to have play time for 18 years. I've been around babies my entire life, I know they cry, I know they're difficult, I fucking know they take up your life. And I'm ok with this! Maybe there are idiots out there who giggle and say: "Yay I want to have a baby" and think it's all peaches & cream..but I'm not one of them. I hate how some mothers act like they wrote the fucking book on motherhood and every woman who doesn't have a child is an idiot. You don't have to be a mother to know what it takes and just because you have a child doesn't make you a fucking super-human. It simply means your fucking egg got fertilized because you had sex. Shit. Because you have a baby & I don't it doesn't give you the right to say: "You don't know what you're talking about, babies aren't that easy." Which to me says: "Although *I* can do it, you can't, because you don't have a child." Forgetting that they too once didn't have a child. You have two types of mothers: One see's motherhood as a blessing, the other as a curse. I see it as a blessing. Including the crying and the life long commitment and the shitty diapers and the puke and the whining etc etc..it's beautiful.
But whatever, shitheads.
Yea I'm in a wonderful mood today, one thing after another. The biggest upset: My strawberries were moldy.
