Crazy-Make-a-Baby

33 weeks.  astoria,  ny

Sept. 28:  33 weeks.  Size of a durian.  Don't know what that is?  Neither did I.  Here's a pic: Durian.  And steps for eating one:  http://www.wikihow.com/Eat-Durian

Someone offers me a seat on the subway.  This time, it's a man.  Guys, you gained a point.  The man that offered me his seat did not speak English as a first language.  White American Men, you are still in ranking lowest in this social observation.

Sept. 29:  For the fainting, I was encouraged to take an iron supplement.  The pill form can make one constipated and I am unwilling to go there.  (Or not go there, as is more appropriate.)  So, I bought the liquid kind, of which I am to take a mere 10 ml.

People.

It's gross.

Sheffield catches a whiff and, while repulsed, cannot refrain from giving it a try.  "It's not worth it," I plead with him, even though I know he won't listen.
And that curiosity killed the cat,
And that Sheffield is a cat on his 1,000,099th life.

So he tastes the liquid iron supplement, and I admit I am slightly comforted that he gags and compares it to "16 year-old rancid prune juice."

Misery loves Curiosity.
