Over the Hill

My colleague is very outspoken and always says exactly what she wants to say in a very direct and loud way. This is my favorite kind of people because everything is always out in the open with them.

“So how old exactly are you?” the colleague asks.

“Thirty-seven.”

“You are really getting over the hill,” the colleague remarks completely seriously. “Don’t worry, though, you still have time to squeeze in a couple kids after this one.”

“What? What did I say?” the colleague asks after I collapse in laughter.

  1. Do you want only one child? I guess, it’s too personal question, but in general if somebody really wants several children, waiting till 47 to get the next one is indeed not the best plan. What is funny?

    In Israel many secular families have 3 kids. FSU immigrants on average seem to have less. In US, it’s usual to have two, right?

    1. At this point, I just want to get this one out safely. 🙂 And then we’ve got to see how we like the whole thing. You never know how you are going to like it until you try. 🙂
