It also feels a bit more legitimate to take an interest in the kids of friends, rather than in the fairly random babies one comes across before peers start sprogging.<br /><br /><b>Rob C</b>,<br />Not completely abandoned, but I do find my free time is being a bit cramped by, on one hand, the evils of commuting, and on the other, the joys of domestic bliss (said without the faintest hint of irony...)<br /><br />As for the bones, I went to endocrine outpatients today. The doctor chappie decided that I should probably stop taking half the medication I'm on, cautioned me against taking too much exercise, particlarly weight-training, in case I grew muscle which (in some strange, mysterious and completely unexplained way) would cause my bones to disappear, and then referred me to the metabolic bone disease clinic and sent me off to get some blood taken, which I think was mainly to counter my complaint that everything we'd discussed could have taen place over the phone, rather than me taking half day off work to be kept waiting in outpatients.<br /><br />Rant over. Thanks for dropping by :)<br /><br /><b>Kahless</b>,<br />Certainly not (yet). But I perhaps wouldn't rule it out completely for a far-off day in the future ;)<br /><br /><b>Random</b>,<br />Thanks for the birthday wishes. I am generally enjoying being thirty, though I do occasionally feel old (e.g when I interview people who were born in 1987...)<br /><br />I do have a certain amount for respect for the marvel that is the she-wee, if only someone could invent something similar for diarrhoea. Still, I ran home from Hammersmith today and suffered no ill effects, so perhaps things are looking up.But Why?https://www.blogger.com/profile/18410865104797473854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626678050222817485.post-14815789378203828682009-08-03T22:15:04.928+01:002009-08-03T22:15:04.928+01:00Actually I just checked and it is called a Shewee....Actually I just checked and it is called a <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Shewee/dp/B001MTN6NG/ref=pd_sim_sg_2" rel="nofollow">Shewee</a>.<br /><br />It's probably best not to ask what combination of words I had to search for to track this down...Random Reflectionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961882549625406258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626678050222817485.post-21400600977778888622009-08-03T22:11:16.673+01:002009-08-03T22:11:16.673+01:00I realise this was not the point of your post and ...I realise this was not the point of your post and as ever I have picked up on the more obscure point, but you should get one of those that was pitched on Dragons Den which is designed to help women urinate like a man. It's a plastic tube and helps to make going to the loo more 'directional' shall we say... I guess you might want something to direct it into though as well like a bottle (unless urinating against a wall etc has been your life's ambition) and then what with carrying a water bottle... this is looking less and less practical by the moment.<br /><br />But I know Brentford and going with my suggestion could still be wiser.<br /><br />Of course you might have no idea what I am talking about and I can't remember what it is called. I'll see if I can remember. Just in case you decide this is the most inspired suggestion you have ever heard. I think that is perfectly possible.<br /><br />Anyway... moving on... welcome back and happy birthday for last month. I have enjoyed my thirties more than my twenties. I would recommend turning 30.Random Reflectionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961882549625406258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626678050222817485.post-6609717369114089172009-08-03T20:26:17.121+01:002009-08-03T20:26:17.121+01:00So is the next logical conclusion that you are goi...So is the next logical conclusion that you are going to sprog sproggs?<br /><br />Glad to see you back blogging.<br /><br />xx.Kahlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00500615451909999365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626678050222817485.post-5946666099487857712009-08-03T13:14:58.273+01:002009-08-03T13:14:58.273+01:00I still think lightly grilled is best.

But one thing that sticks in my mind: when I started liking babies, I think it was less to do with getting old (I believe I was in my mid 20s), and more to do with coming to terms with certain things within myself.<br /><br />But then, I perhaps needed to reach a certain age before I was able to come to terms with certain things within myself...<br /><br />I suppose (again, for me anyway) it's also about being a certain age where some of one's peers are having kids: therefore you get to associate babies with close friends (ie their parents), therefore it's easy to be more appreciative.<br /><br />I reserve the right to be entirely wrong as regards your own thoughts and experience on this :)trousershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12879862280895772283noreply@blogger.com
