public notice to people who are probably not the people reading this

Please stop insinuating that because I'm 30 and in a long term monogamous relationship that I should turn all my attention to how much I want to have a baby. I am not interested. This might change, and it might not. My uterus is not on anyone's timeline but mine, and I am not prepared to bring a kid into the world when I would resent all the time and focus it would take away from other things I want to accomplish.

If I decide to have a kid, I will let you all know, I promise. I'll have a little party and you can buy it clothes and guess what I might name it and everything. I might even decide to be terribly old fashioned, and, you know, get married first. Until then, kindly do me a favor and shut up.

Geez. I really hope no one related to me said something annoying at the party. (Though I can think of a few people that are distantly related that probably would have.)

Oh, no, party was great. Honestly, most of the vent would go where it's needed if I shortened that beginning part up to "Dear Mom,".
