Virgin on the Ridiculous September 11, 2007

Posted by Jen in : Journal , 16 comments

During my taxi services yesterday, my adorable children began a conversation about what they thought their lives would be like by the time they’re 40.

No 1 Son (13) (in his Brian Blessed voice): Oh, well, I’ll be working really hard and eating out at nice restaurants a lot.

Me: D’you think you’ll be married and have children by then?

No 1 Son: Oh, yes, definitely. Let’s face it - we’re a great joy to you, aren’t we?

I don’t say very much to that bit.

No 2 Son (11): You’re not gonna have kids. You’ll still be a virgin when you’re 40. In fact, you’ll probably be a virgin forever.

No 1: Well, at least I’m likely to find real love – not like you when you’re a “professional footballer” (actually does fingers in the air thing) with your tarty gold diggers.

 

Whatever happened to naivety? It’s another world these days, isn’t it?
