12:18 PM 1/18/09 · One of the most annoying things about someone banning you from their journal is not being able to congratulate them when something this good happens. I wasn't even banned for a falling out between us or anything.
Mostly because he found my comments bothersome on a particular day he was going on about starting a killing spree in the office we both worked. I knew he wasn't being serious but I still felt the need to point out that it would be bad.
So,
Warlock banned me...
...although, that doesn't mean I can't still read his posts.
Quite a bit back I told him that he'd make an excellent grandfather. He balked at the idea saying that would never happen.
From my mother side I inherited The Sight, an ironically unpredictable ability that kicks in when it wants to and not when I'd like to have it handy. Most often it comes in dreams, sometimes daydreams, and being a lucid dreamer by nature I can assure you that the texture and feel of those dreams are much different than my usual fare. It was one such that showed me a very old version of my exceptionally aggravating friend and surrounded by tiny tots...
...some of which were his.
The reason he didn't think he'd ever have grandkids was because he said he'd never likely be married. He said he'd never be married because he didn't intend to have kids. He didn't intend to have kids because knowing how he is with women he projected that onto whatever young men might come sniffing after his potential daughters and he didn't want to have to go through that...and there were some other things mixed in with all that too.
So, as he put it, as this would all never come to be he'd never be a grandfather.
Good or otherwise.
I believe we had this conversation about 2 or 3 years back...
...and just this past week
Warlock bought an engagement ring.
I had to congratulate him by text message!
