No Nerve, Never

the spell

this past thursday i spent the evening with a pair of my boyfriend's friends.
this couple just had twins - in december.
so we went to their killer apartment in Condado, to see the little girls, and thus began my spiral to the land of "i never thought...."

children make me nervous. i find them intimidating, suspicious, and in general, nothing i'd ever want popping out of me.

my man, on the other hand, LOVES children. he speaks to them as people (as opposed to my confused grunts in their direction), loves to pick up babies, and has that magic "he managed to put them to sleep!" quality. he just has a magic touch with children. he loves them, they love him.
i find this very very suspicious.

so we go on this rockin' thursday night to see the newborn twins, and suddenly my suspicions were proven right. in a matter of minutes, MINUTES, the two thieves that call themselves teeny tiny baby girls managed to COMPLETELY destroy any chances i had of never having children. little by little, through tiny feet and sleepy faces, through sleeping on my boyfriend's arms and that ferocious baby smell, these ruthless twins stole my heart, stealing my freedom as well.

i believe this little trip to the twins' lair was merely a cheap ploy of this man of mine to get me to stop proclaiming that i hate kids. he probably planned and conspired with those two little "angels," using their ridiculous beauty to lure me in, falling into a trap i'd never figure out an escape to.
by 10pm on thursday night, my biological clock, once thought non-existent ("never having kids, dude. never!"), was turned on, kickstarted, pulled into action. and i'm desperately trying to SHUT THAT THING OFF.
