My boobs don’t lie. I got up at like 6:40am and peed on a stick. Counting for 5 seconds is a hard task that early. I was counting in my head and then thinking “Did I skip the number 4?” I placed the test on the counter and kept peeing for like the next 2 [...]

My parents came by this weekend. When they arrived my mother went to the side door and knocked loudly despite the sign on the door saying “Door broken. Please use front door” I yelled at her to go to the front of the house. That’s when I noticed my dad looking at the bumper of [...]
