Tired of being nice
Can I just complain about people? It feels like half my office is pregnant and the other half is engaged. Now I am married for a long time, and am childfree ( as opposed to child-less) and am very happy with both those parts of my life. How many times do I have to look at sonograms and go "HUH?" in my head, but "Oh, wow, thats really cool" to their faces? Cue the cooing over baby clothes. I have a gigantic family and babies are not my thing but at work you gotta pretend.
So someone got engaged. That is very nice. Good luck to you. Why do I have to hear people gush on and on about it? And I do mean gush. "How did he do it? Was it romantic"? Who the fuck cares??? This isn't the 1950's. Was she waiting and waiting for him to ask? Does her life have meaning now? Please. Honestly, the engagements that are done by skywriting and scoreboards at major league baseball games don't guarantee a lasting marriage. Had this new engagee invented a way to turn my commute from 2 hours into 10 minutes... now that would be something to celebrate. I wish them all the best. Can everyone calm down now?
It's been a long week and the cold ones are going down very nicely right about now.
