Babies

 What is it about the news that "so-and-so" is pregnant, that gets everyone’s knickers in a knot?! Why do people care so much about whether someone is in a good situation or not? Why does it matter so much?
And it seems to be the people that frown upon it the most are those who do not have children! So how is it that they feel they are in a place to judge?
It just blows me away, it really does! Just because I’m not following things they way you are "supposed" to, all my friends are acting strangely around me… ok, not all. Just some. Like I’m some crazy person they don’t want to associate with. I don’t get it, I really don’t. And perhaps I’m just unable to remove myself from the situation enough to see their point of view. 
Even my biological family hasn’t even congratulated me at all. With the exception of my bio grandma. I mean, I expect not to hear from my adoptive mother, she’s a bit of a square-head anyway. Everything has to be done "normally" otherwise you’re insane. Same as my dad. But he seemed to handle it well. 

I don’t understand why people pretend to like and agree with each other all the time. I am very much the type of person who says it like it is. I am very readable, and I don’t believe I have the ability to pretend to like someone. I always do my best to be kind to people, and courteous. But if I don’t like someone, it is always for a very good reason (at least I always believe so) and it’s generally very blatant.
I don’t think I am a very mean person, but I know I can be. I don’t know… 
I’m just blown away by how crazy people can be about another person’s business! I guess it makes sense, people like to associate themselves with people that they can relate to. The decisions I’ve been making lately are difficult for people to relate to. People are really strange! 
I guess people are just one of those things that I have a lot to learn about! For some reason, it’s not something that has come naturally to me. I’m not like other people at all. I don’t really know anyone like me. It used to be really difficult, being so different from everyone else. But I’m happy with me. It’s taken a long time, and it’s been difficult, especially being raised by two square-heads. But I suppose it has helped me in a lot of ways. I have had the opportunity to be exposed to how the majority of people are, at a very young age. So I suppose I have a good idea of the worst reactions I could receive. 

whatever… it is what it is…
