time of your life
Seven years ago I had a dream that for some weirdo reason there were only a few youngins to keep the human population going. (Let's say over half the planet picked up and went to Jupiter.) In the dream, I found myself in a crazy 80's style wedding dress participating in a multiple couple wedding, an arranged marriage thing between the remaining young boys and girls to reproduce. At the altar, all ready with the whole kit and caboudle, I stood infront of my mom and the whole church, and said, "You know, this probably isn't the best time to bring this up, but I never really planned to have children."

Not much else about the dream is important. I just think it's funny that even in my dreams I'm someone who wants to have this odd life, compared to everyone else in my family. I don't want what they have/want. It's not like I'm in one of those opressive families that would disown me for not bearing children, but I know that it would get me treated different. At the family reunions in 20 years, I'll be standing there with my husband all weird and awkward like most childless couples while my brothers and sister's prodigy are climbing up the walls and throwing punch at eachother. Yay.
Most people are like, "You say that now, but I bet you'll change your tune come your late twenties."
Sure, whatever, thats the future though. Right now, I don't want kids, and I don't want to plan on them. You know? I want to plan on ME. Is that so odd? Is that so selfish?
