Does that mean you're gonna tell me?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, hang on one minute.

[vanishes off the plane and rearrives with a banana, a pear, a sock puppet, and a globe]

This is how my father told me.

That looks nothing like what was in the book.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Yes, well, it's better with explaining, I'm sure.

What's the globe for?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

It's part of reminding you just how big the whole world is and how important it is to lie back and just think about that.

[yeah, cause that makes sense for THE TALK]

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

So you think about how big the world is the whole time?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

It's important to know the scope of things.

What makes you want to know these things, anyway?

A midwife told me that it'd be useful, just in case something happens.

[ D= NOT MY DAUGHTER!]

Something?

What does this person think you're going to be doing?

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

I don't know. She gave me this book, too. [Holds up a copy of "It's so Amazing! A book about eggs, sperm, birth, babies, and families"]

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Sounds almost like a twisted recipe book.

You haven't got a boyfriend or anything, have you?

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

No, I don't. Why?
