Ran into my friend Erin in walmart today. I hadn't seen her since the summer so it was nice. We talked for about an hour or so and it was just nice. I realize that too many people I know (my age) are either parents or with child and it honestly makes me sad. What's worse: 2 minutes of "embarrassment" at walmart buying a pack of condoms (get the 36 pack so you make fewer trips) or 18 years of [attempting to] supporting a child and then looking back and realizing that s/he didn't have a fantastic childhood because his/her parents were too young?
