I was just at a friends house 3 weeks ago who has a 1 year old and 2 year old. His house looks like if Ronald McDonald did acid and repainted his house. Its all child proof. Looks like a Toys R Us surplus warehouse with all of the toys everywhere. I stepped on a toy car, almost tripped. His wife gained many pounds, and he gained weight too. He told me that the 2 year old is now walking, and always opening up drawers and relocating objects. He tells me the 1 year old takes massive craps that make diaper changing a nightmare. He tells me that when he finally goes to bed at 1 am to get up at 5:30 am, at 1 am, the 1 year old always cries.
So un-pure, cut shit... sure... but man... that baby Fentanyl is dangerous stuff! Seems very hard on the mind. Seems like an exhausting never ending trip.
I guess you have to love that. Maybe having a baby makes people's pain and BS tolerance a lot higher.
The costs, the daycare costs, the lack of sleep, the micromanagement.
Love must be a crazy thing for one to be a zombie for a few years.
