I feel the same way. I want grandchildren when I'm older.

This is NOT TRUE! Friends of ours are a lesbian couple with two daughters; other friends are a gay (male) couple with an adopted son and daughter.

I know. ai731 and I are both joking. So's Julie. My daughter has no obligations to provide me with anything, least of all granchildren - if she has children, it had better be for herself, not for me.

It looks like I am going to be officially broken tomorrow, seeing that it's gone 5 am, and I am in pain and not able to sleep. Were I not in pain, I would say "sod it" and drag my sleepy arse out of bed anyway, but having already gone into Spoon Overdraft today, that would probably make me completely useless for the rest of the week :/ I hate missing out on doing something fun because I need to be responsible about my health *whine whine moan*. I need to save spoons for the doctor on Friday, too :/

It's a shame, because I would have liked to see you again and meet Linnea. Perhaps when you are back from holiday? Might be able to meet up after your Swedish lesson one Saturday, when you are in London already. Fear my l33t bus-routing skills! (And, from that time I had when I was too ill to walk, I know a few ways to get round using solely the Jubilee Line extension ;) )

This is fine because Linnea spent far too long awake in the night so we stayed home too, since your SMS last night. And now she is fairly well-rested and happy, which is great. We might be in town again on Friday butno real plans yet.
