Wonder if only i am the only woman who hates to talk about family and hubby.....but do it anyway simply coz of the lack of any better conversational matter......or there are graver issues like she talks only about her family coz thats what life for her is all about!!!!! ( am i boring????)
Just got off the phone with a close friend and believe me we yapped about nothing else but kids and hubby and shit happening.........so i have taken a pledge to becoming conversationally more interesting by reading more, meeting people who do not have kids ,hubbies or pets. going to parks and participating in bird watching( how do they do it i feel nothing for birds!! but there must be something to it) or become a fashionista (do i hear guffaws) go for book and poetry readings ( pleez point me in the right direction as i have no clue as where this stuff takes place) travel and meet and dine with people whose fave time pass is to discuss fine wine and cheese( i hear great discussions happen around goat and blue cheese) .
I know there is a glitch to this program of mine......where does one find these creatures ???? i do not move in those circles!!!!! but honestly speaking the more they talk about the cheese or global warming or the state of current politics i start to feel the need to throw on a pair of P.J's and sneak a hug from any member of my family.......
I think iam a goner they is no cure to my " family addiction" .....dear reader whoever you are take pity on me and next time you talk to me pleez start an interesting conversation coz iam really starved for a decent one barring which be prepared to hear all about the baby's latest antics and my grouching about everything in general......so long!!!!!!!!!!! waiting for my ear to get chewed off!by some great conversations!!!!!!!

My life is a lot about things other than family too...but when i get on the phone with people like you, I only like talking about things that really bother me or keep me happy - and these are largely family based categories , no? will try to talk about some interesting stuff, i promise.
baby i didnt mean yesterdays talk with you....today i talked with another friend and we seemed to only talk abt family....which is imp ! but are we falling in a rut! loved talking to you babe!
