Jacob's thread made me wonder.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

The maybe option made me chuckle.

I am a parent to a kitty, but no human.

Not interested too.

Yes
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Yes. Two kids, both in college now.

There was a recentish Atlantic article about whether parenting made people more or less happy overall. It was...interesting.

Being a parent is, emotionally, one of the most satisfying things I have ever done. I cannot imagine myself NOT being a parent.

I often wonder how much of that is based on simple biological programming though.
"If you think this has a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention."

Yes, a parent of three. Happy of being one.

No, I don't want more. I shudder at the idea of restarting the newborn routine.

Yeah I have three including a two year old who is turning three on the 28th. Oldest is 11 and will entering Middle School in the Autumn.

I am not caring for any more babies unless I end up with grandchildren.

Only three?  Damn.  She's the one born before you could finish Mass Effect, right? ;)
Seemed like ages ago, I thought she'd be 4 or 5 by now :)

Ahh, anyway, they do grow fast, so enjoy it while you can, as you already know :D  Your years as a god are nearly over with the 11 yo :P
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.
