The Damn Things are Everywhere.

Mr. M and I went to dinner with a girlfriend of mine last night. It's amazing how much can change in 3 months. In the time since I've last seen her, she's gotten back together with an ex, he's moved back in, and she's expecting.

2 other friends my age are expecting their second. Another had her third last winter.

It's so important to me to be supportive and excited. But after a while it gets really hard to keep watching.

"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was."
