terrible dreams
November 8, 2009
Had the most terrible dream last night. I can say I learned one thing: being pregnant is awful.
Maybe I was dreaming about that because I’ve been reading too much Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath for my Women’s Literature class. And thinking about Revolutionary Road. And how your life is over once you fall in love and get married and have children. And how you have to start wearing “comfortable” tennis shoes just so you can manage a stroller all day. And how a car isn’t big enough anymore. And how you start eating macaroni and cheese three times a week.
Short haircuts and Legos and Barbies.
Maybe there is one good thing that comes from having children: finally having someone to talk about dinosaurs with.
currently listening to: Our Hell by Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton
