Turns out I'm old.  Yup, I said it.  I've officially crossed the line of instantly congratulating somebody when they say they are pregnant rather than my old response of "Your parents are going to freak!"  I lived this experience today when a 20-something girl in class told me she was pregnant and of course, I bubbled up with excitement and started gushing out my congratulations to her.  I quickly learned that she wasn't nearly as enthused as I was as she proceeded to tell me that she isn't excited, her boyfriend is mortified and her parents don't know.  The best part was that I heard her refer to me at the "B*tch who is excited about babies" after class in the bathroom. 
So there you have it.  I'm officially a b*tch who is excited about babies.  I wonder why crossing the lines from Oh Crap to Congratulations isn't covered in any of the cognitive stages of development?

Ok, now this is just funny! I guess I'm a b*tch who's excited about babies, too!
ReplyDeletewhoa...one woman's excitement is another woman's b*tch. Sounds like she should be in a child development class!
