I awoke at 5:30 feeling oddly refreshed. My night was not peaceful; I had horrible nightmares. I dreamed that Lisa and I were in a concentration camp and we were trying to escape. Right as a man was about to break my leg, I woke up.
Yesterday was Audra’s Baby Shower and thus the end of a very long run of weddings and showers. Two of the guests asked me when I would be getting married. I was very civil to the first person but when the second person asked my reaction wasn’t entirely appropriate. I suppose it’s because every single weekend I’ve been getting that question along with one regarding baby making. I’m just tired of fielding that question with a smile and a “not yet.” For the good of mankind, I am going to assist married people everywhere with some alternate questions to, “Why aren’t you married?” and “Can’t seem to get your man to commit, huh?”
1. Watched anything good on television lately?
2. Do you believe in an interventionist God?
3. How do you spell relief?
There really is no need to thank me. I like helping people.
Married people are essentially insecure about their own marital status.
Why else would they be concerned about your or any other person’s status? Why should it matter to them?
By the way, your complaint about the “diversity” monster that’s eating America is
all too familiar. It’s simply
not possible for any institution in America to be unified or cohesive. Unity is a dirty word. The next step is for the Loony Left to rename our nation…from The United States to The Diversified States.
How did this all happen?
Some history, if you’re interested, regarding

B. Davis is back! I have missed you. Loved the article, thanks for linking to it.
Thanks. If I respond to your postings here it will be with the full knowledge that this is YOUR blog, and you can do anything you want with it.
(The property rights individualist in me, you know).
Mills College, an exclusive women’s school in California, experienced Rosemont-like problems back in the 1990s. What did the women at that college do back then? They said “HELL NO, YOU’RE NOT TAKING OUR SCHOOL AWAY!” And they won their battle (well, it was a partial victory…graduate programs are now coed).
Everything today has to be “inclusive”, doesn’t it? Well, guess what, I “exclude” morons, liars, and criminals from my set of friends, don’t you? Obviously you do…
I’m guessing you haven’t found the right person yet.
“but when the second person asked my reaction wasn’t entirely appropriate”
What was it?! Go Donna! I can always use a new response myself!
When my folks bring it up to me, I redirect to my (married) sister and note that she hasn’t any kids yet. lol
IMHO the best response regarding the kids question is to say “I can’t have kids since my chemo, thanks for asking” and watch the nosy bastard squirm in shame.
