Babies

There are a lot of babies in my life currently.

Ok, Babies and Toddlers.

I love kids I do, but don't get me started on the whole "Pro-Life/Pro-Choice" argument. I can go on for days. It's one of those things I am very passionate about, and when people don't understand my POV (Point of View) even after I explain it six different ways, I tend to get a little irritated.

Okay I get really irritated, but that is not the whole point of today's blog post!

See, my niece, I'll call her Lil Miss, is two. Little Miracle just turned the big One, and my BFFSFAM just had her little girl, so she is all of 4 days (ish) old. Quite a few of my classmates from High School seem to be having babies/ have had babies, and then one of my co-workers, I'll call her Ver, is due in October. So she's expecting this kiddo in about five weeks.

Now, I see a baby, and hold a baby and instantly it's like:

That is not a joke. But in order to even have my own baby, I would have to first be in a relationship, preferably married, but hey a steady good relationship of at least 2+ years would be good too. The only issue? 

Relationships take time, and actually going out and meeting new people. 

Time is something I spend at work, or at home being unsocial with anyone outside of my family. So yeah, romantic relationship with a guy? Prolly not going to happen any time soon.

Although I did see a guy I used to work with the other day, and after we were finished talking when I got back in the truck with my mom (we were out looking for some chairs for my table found some awesome sturdy metal ones too) she was like "He was cute." I laughed and said something along the lines of "yeah and he's nice." She was all like he's got a car, and a job you two should go on a date! I laughed more, and then she continued with something along the lines of "and your dad would have a shit fit! It would be great!" 

She said that because the cute guy is black. I don't have a problem with other races, heck I don't have a problem with anyone who's a good human being, and she doesn't either. My dad can sometimes be a little funny about it though. He's not racist, but he just has a few outdated ideas on occasion, and mom and I periodically remind him that yes I am an adult, and yes I do know how to survive on my own, and it is my life. 

Some of that is probably a little bit of an exaggeration, but other bits hit close to home. 

Anyway, with my luck by the time that I do have kids I'll be like this:

Yeah.

Anyway, I'm going to watch the Aristocats since I have two hours before I get off for the next two days. Might as well use the internet, since I still have yet to get that for my apartment.
