I thought all brains came with a filtering mechanism January 23, 2008
But clearly I was wrong. Witness this list of things actual people have said to me:
1. "Are you *sure* it isn’t twins?" [said by more than one person]
2. "I don’t mean to be rude but…the belly isn’t going to get *bigger* is it?"
3. "I’m pregnant too, but I don’t carry like you–*I* am sucking it all in."
I am trying to have a sense of humor about things though, and just waiting for the day I can fall in the cafeteria and yell out "Is anyone here a marine biologist?". (In the meantime, I re-read point 10 of this post frequently.)
