Jade’s Mom’s days…

ARGH MY POST JUST GOT LOST!!! T_T

Anyway … here’s the gist of what I was writing ….

The "Fun with Jade" category is in danger of getting changed to "BAD DAYS with Jade" ……

Last Sunday (22nd) we went to karaoke and movies (to watch The Departed).

She can’t behave … While I’m trying to have fun and sing my song, she jumps on/to people, on the couch, bugs me all the time, climbs up the couch & wall … And she just won’t stop …

And then the movies … ARGH where do I start??? She constantly bugs me, constantly walks around, from her seat to mine (we sat on different rows, Jade sat with Jeff and I sat with Febry), sings silly songs, asks very unimportant questions, etc …

Well that was ultimately her FATHER’s fault!!!  I told him to leave her behind, largely because this movie is VERY inapropriate for children!!! I already knew that there will be lots of killings, rough violence, excessive use of "FUCK"s, some sex scenes, too much spewing of blood, etc. But nooo, he insisted on taking his daughter, cause he feels sorry if she’s left behind at home. And then I pointed out to him that she will be bothering us, because she wouldn’t be able to sit quietly in her seat. But did he listen to me? Again, it’s a big N-O. The father is ALMOST as infuriating as his daughter!!! The result? NONE OF US enjoyed the movie entirely in PEACE!

Tell me, why did we waste $10 each to go to see a movie where none of us really watched in peace? What’s the point??? For $1 we can get a bootleg DVD and watch it at home and still be bothered by Jade, isn’t it the same??? With $40 I can get a ZARA black V-neck jumper that I’ve been wanting to buy!!!!!

I swear, if one more person asks me why I didn’t have more kids, I will FORCE him/her to take Jade to the movies.

And THAT, my friends, is a very effective way to scare teenagers (maybe even adults) out of having (unprotected) SEX.

Lately people (my mom, my aunts & uncles, my mom’s friends, my aunts’ friends, my dad’s friends, my cousins, my friends, my friends’ friend, etc …) has only ONE thing they ask me when they see my face …

"When are you going to f**k and produce more babies?" ….

Well … ^_^; ok, not exactly those words … and maybe not exactly that direct … Some of the paraphrases I’ve heard were "When’s Jade gonna have a baby brother/sister?" … "Oh your kid’s so cute! You should have another one!" … "Jade deserves to have a brother/sister to play with" and so on, and so forth …

Gosh darn it … it’s MY uterus … it’s not their business if I want anything in it ever again or not … I am NOT a baby factory!!!

Yeah my kid’s cute, but you were not around when she’s having a bad day or a stubborn day or a very demanding day or sick days … You don’t have to feed her, bathe her, change her poopy diapers, etc … Jade’s a big girl now, she can change her clothes, eat by herself …  And you want me to go through all the feeding, bathing and poopy diapers again???

Have you seen my room? It’s full of Jade’s stuff … The other day I found a picture of our room on the day we got married and I almost cried. It’s so different! It was lovely, pretty, VERY NEAT, it has nothing … Only a bed, 2 night tables, dresser & TV stand … now … You’d faint if you see it, and I’m afraid you really will … so I refuse to describe or post a picture of it. Bottomline is, unless I have new space for Jade’s shizz, I don’t have any space for another baby.

Even when we just got back from our honeymoon … EVVERRYYbody asks "Are you guys pregnant yet?" … huh? We’ve just been married for less than a month … People don’t reproduce instantly "poof" like magic … just mix in a little water and stir … Are you kidding me?? At that time, I naively thought I can put this "getting knocked-up business" aside for like a year. However, everybody started getting their heads all up in my uterus, I just had to give in and procreate … just to shut everybody the hell up ….

That’s why I hesitate to ask a barren married couple the "Are you pregnant?" question … Not that I don’t care about you … I care so much about you that I don’t want to hurt your feelings by asking a stupid question. I’m sure when you’re ready, you’ll let me know that you’re expecting a little bundle of joy and I’ll be happy for you then. What if I’m really reproductively challenged? Then what? Am I broken now? Can I be changed with a newer model? I’m not a fem-bot baby producing machine …

And now it starts again …. *sigh* …. T_T whatever am I going to dooo???? People!!!! I just bought a pair of fabulous black skinny jeans!!! I seriously CANNOT get pregnant now!!! (Is that an apropriate answer? I really wanted to say those words out loud a few days ago) … ^_^;; 

This is a crisis!!!
