I’m glad to say I’m having my period today.

Again, ignoring Matt’s admonitions not to reveal too much personal information on the Internet, I have to mention that whenever I have sex I become convinced that I am pregnant, no matter how much or how many different kinds of birth control I have used.

Actually, I was thinking at first that it would be okay if it happened, what with my age and being financially self-sufficient and all. But then I started thinking of the responsibility, the long-term planning that would be needed, how I would explain what happened to other people …

Still, though, I feel really jealous of people who got pregnant by accident, and everything turned out okay. I’ve always wanted to have a kid. Will being too sensible make me miss out? Will the people who are less careful get all the happiness?
