Some things are better left unsaid.

Sometimes there are certain things in life you just dont want to know about. Knowledge that once attained, will ruin the image you had previously carved in your mind. Things that actually leave u feeling dumber than u were before. Just something u know you would be happier if u just did NOT know..... But when u take one of nature's true miracles, your perception is that its all dandy, beautiful and wonderful, until the reality of the situation is revealed to you.

At work, i'm surrounded by women. Some may say that's paradise. And in most cases, it is. But today, i learnt certain things about "women business" i didnt appreciate too much. The talk at lunch came down to babies and pregnancies, which is understandable since one of them is expecting her 1st child.

I dont want to scar some of you fellas out there, but lets say that the woman's body goes thru some unsavoury changes thru her pregnancy, that may not be so obvious to the outsider. U have the obvious lumps and bumps that appear that anyone can see, but there are other things so hideous and dark that it pains me to think about it. Apparantly the look on my face was priceless as the girls went on comparing pregnancy notes. I think my expression was one of sheer shock and disgust, similar to one suffering from a nauseating kick in the goolies, that left the girls laughing their heads off.

I guess u mums out there would know what these are, but lets just say, i'll never look at a pregnant lady the same way again.
