Soooo I’m very very excited! Of course I am!
But.
Also it’s spring. And usually that would be fine, spring isn’t too bad for me. Except that my father, who usually is pretty good about this sort of thing, has been seeing this nice lady for the last three seasons or so. I like her well enough most of the time, but ever since spring rolled around they’ve been making noises about....grandchildren....
I am my dad’s only kid. His new partner is, sadly, childless. They’re both well past the fertile window. Which leaves just me to provide these hypothetical grandbabies. But I don’t want children! He knows that! Easing a spring or two for someone else is not a good enough reason to make a person, especially since I’m self-aware enough to know I would not be a very good parent once spring is over!
Arrrrgh!
I could take it when it was just “But Leilei, credits are so cheap this year!” But moving on to “But Leilei, your children could see the stars!” is just. COMPLETELY unfair.
This is not my worst spring ever but boy is it giving it a shot.
