~THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR KIND WORDS ABOUT MY CAT, YESTERDAY WAS A VERY HARD DAY. HE WILL BE MISSED GREATLY BUT HE'S IN A BETTER PLACE WITH ALL THE CAT NIP IN THE WORLD~
I had to share this little bit:
We went out to dinner on Saturday night with a group of friends. These are people we hang out with on a regular basis and all are familiar with our IF issues. Another couple joined us out that night who we haven't seen in almost a year due to the birth of their son. They dealt with IF and several m/c prior to becoming pregnant so they definitely know what the struggle is like. ANYHOO...so we're at dinner and drinking with everyone when another couple's daughter calls (she's 15/16 y/o). The Mom is giving her crap because her b/f is over at the house and they are alone. The Dad is flipping out at that and tells her not to do anything stupid. I say that if she gets pregnant my DH and I will take the baby. We all laughed hard at that (I was serious though). I figure if I can't make jokes about my IF I will never be able to get through it.
This couple who has dealt with IF gave me a look of death when I made that comment. I'm not going to fucking steal your baby, or someone elses for that matter, it was a joke-lighten up. I said to her, if I can't joke about my IF then who can? She still looked at me with disgust. I was so annoyed the rest of the night I drank myself into oblivion...LOL.
I don't know that this story really makes sense (I swear I'm not drunk now) I was just so annoyed I had to share.

I am so sorry about your cat:(
My husband told me to steal a baby from the grocery store yesterday while I was there. If you can't laugh about it you will be miserable all the time.
OMG! I cant believe her - what a witch!
lol, I have made the same joke a few times. That woman needs to lighten up:)
Sos orry again about Simon, but your right, he's happy in his land of unlimited catnip ;)
WTF was that chick's problem at dinner? I thought your comment was funny, why would she take offense to it? She's weird, don't let her get to you.
yeah- don't sweat it- we make that IF joke all the time, along with 'I guess we'll just have to rob a bank'...
keep laughing and those of us who understand will laugh with you !!!! After all, if I am not laughing about this crap, then I am ususally crying...
Sorry about your kitty. As for the comment, your right, if you can't laugh at your own infertility than who can. People have to learn to take life a little less serious, especially when there is so much to be serious about.
I nominated you for the "Honest Scrap" award
