Calcium Rich
If it’s true that Tums are calcium rich I’m going to start laying eggs soon (egg shells are made of calcium aren’t they?). It’s a good thing we’re moving because my stash is just about gone. They have this nasty dissolve in water stuff you can use, but it tastes so nasty that I can’t use it.
Today I’ve been obsessing on the idea of people laying eggs instead of giving birth to live little babies. I’ve decided egg laying is the way to go. At first I thought it would be a bad thing because the abortion rate could possibly go up, but then I realized there would be no abortions at all. You could just drop your egg off at an egg orphanage and someone could take the baby if you didn’t want it. No awkwardness at all. Women don’t get abortions because they feel good about killing the fetus so it would work out perfectly. I would love to have a baby with none of the pain and discomfort of pregnancy and child birth. I can’t imagine I’m alone in that wish. Though I guess there probably is something to be said for pregnancy–bonding or something like that. Who knows.
Maybe I should write a science fiction book with this concept, except it’s pretty stupid really and has probably been written about before and I have no plot. Instead of thinking of books I could write, perhaps I should finish one of the books I have on the back burner. I’m such a quitter.
Lookie there. Kindergarten Cop is on the ol’ TV. I should watch it and see how many of the places I recognize. I used to live two doors down from the school it was shot at.
I think that’s all that’s on my mind today. My stomach is so busy using my blood that my brain is deprived and I can’t think straight.

But then you’d have even more people having children. I know some women shy away because of the pain. But if you could lay an egg and have a kid, then it would be easier to get rid of it. What would be nice is if you could lay an egg if and only if you really WANT TO. No more “oops”. :)
