Lisa and I went to a bar this evening. A man came over to us and started a conversation. At first glance, I thought he was dark and swarthy, but when I took a longer look, I realized he was simply dirty. He told us that he just swallowed his gum. It was only a little piece, he assured us. And when he shits, it will make a tiny bubble coming out. He then mentioned that he has 15 children- all with different mothers. 6 in PA, 3 in Hawaii, 4 in Alaska, 1 in Easter Island and 1 in Papua, New Guinea. It is his goal to have many children and tonight he had the urge to make another child…would either of us be interested? He gives each child $178.00 a month in support. “Quite tempting,” I said, but we must be off. We walked away quickly; I was a little worried that he might come after us.
I hope this is not the caliber of man I am now attracting. I hope this fellow is not a representation of the single man that is out in the world today. Ach mein Gott, what am I facing????
