| Grandkids! WHAT grandkids? |
| Thursday, September 21, 2006 |
I caught up with a friend last night and she told me she has been studying to become a medium (apparently they spend a lot of the class just meditating).
So we are talking about being kids and I was telling her that my nana used to make 'magic' lemonade by asking me what color lemonade I would like then as I yelled out the color, she would pour the lemonade into the glass and ta da it turned that exact color. I believed it for years until I found out that she used to nip into the kitchen and pop a couple of drops of food coloring in the bottom of the glass before pouring.
So anyway I'm telling this story to my Medium 101 student friend and she says "oh you can do that with your grandkids".
I laugh and reply "I'm not having kids".
Then she goes all serious, looks at me intently and says "yes you are".
My cynical self wonders whether the fact that she has said it means that I'll believe it and do it anyway. Kids aside, I quite like the thought that I'll be living to be old enough to be a grandmother. Then of course Ms Paranoid in my head has to ruin it by speculating that if I choose not to have kids will I get to live that old, or will the fact that I am denying my fate mean that I'll die young and childless? |
