gm parents…

pre-labor: “it’s SO BEAUTIFUL bringing a life into this world”
post-labor: “it gets easier after the first month… maybe three months, after neck control.”

Are we all just perpetuating a lie to continue playing civilization? or should i expect a MIB visit soon for a “memory wipe”?

Yeah I mean, it's a season, y'know? 
There's things I want to do/read/see/build that I absolutely cannot right now because the two year old demands attention.

But a friend 10 years into it came over one afternoon and said "enjoy it. Because between school, homework, and extra curricular activities, I don't really get to hang out with my kids like this anymore."

Every phase seems to just a season and I'm probably gonna miss it when it passes.

that’s awesome to hear and a great datapoint. running this sim has been… interesting in forking my “Self” into a present zombie and future nostalgic. it just feels like the sim Time expands hard thanks to lack of sleep and infinitely growing responsibilities.
Stack overflow ~> memory reset.

I remember the early months being hard but my wife and I still sit on the couch at night looking at pictures of her from 6 months ago and teary eyed.

All of this to say, a memory wipe is imminent.
