Foolish Child #22: Too Sick to Function
Dickens
I am a queer coparenting mama to Dickens Jr. Doodler by day, 911 dispatcher by night. All my favorite shows look better on Tumblr. I am two years and 450K words deep into constructing a fanfic called Ages and I'm never giving up on it. Bering & Wells.
Alana has written 123 articles for us.
My mom was, and still is, often fond of saying those sorts of things to me. :-/
However, she usually says things like that more negatively framed, not the more light-hearted way you mean here. And I imagine tons of pregnant women can empathize! =)

“You may leave me now.” I’m sorry, I know being in pain sucks, but that line made me die laughing.
