Goodbye, Nomadic Pollyanna

been thinking, dangerous passtime that. i think its time i had me some babies. its not like am in a panic or i can hear the clock ticking away or anything like that. its just that ever since i can remember ive had this dream of me and a beautiful little gal, in a mansion with a pool, the whole nine yards yaani. dont ask me where her pops was coz in the dream he either doesnt feature at all or when he does me and him dont even talk; am always standing aside watching him with her or he's watching me and her. hmmm... seems i mighta married him, aint no way i'd have a baby out of wedlock (see mom i didnt turn out so bad afterall, there's a shocker!) anyway seems we got married then divorced or maybe we are still married but putting up appearances? for such a long time i've wanted to do the picket fences thing; marry some dude who was crazy about me and vice versa.(then i learned that such relationships get messy) then it was any nice guy who cares about me (no guarantees there either). now am just tired of meeting all the different kinds of jerks this country has to offer. i almost sigh audibly whenever a guy asks for my number nowadays. its bloody exhausting. same shit, different jerk, over and over again.so this is where i am finally. from the perfectionist who wanted nothing but the best, the perfect family to this realist who just wants a baby, if it works out with the dad, Alhamdulillah, if it doesnt no major loss...well maybe to the little gal.poor thing. five years ago, i would have thought cest impossible. not me, never. yeah, guess the rose tinted glasses are finally off. just coz you've been on the straight and narrow all your life, it doesnt mean you dont get to be thrown some tricky curve balls.

WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?
* KINDERGARTEN TEACHER : To get to the other side.
* PLATO : For the greater good.
* ARISTOTLE : It is the nature of chickens to cross roads.
* KARL MARX : It was a historical inevitability.
* SADDAM HUSSEIN : This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we werejustified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it.
* RONALD REAGAN : I forget.
* CAPTAIN JAMES T. KIRK : To boldly go where no chicken has gonebefore.
* MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR : ... I envision a world where all chickens willbe free to cross roads without having their motives being called intoquestion.
* MACHIAVELLI : The point is that the chicken crossed the road. Whocares why? The end of crossing the road justifies whatever motive therewas.
* JERRY SEINFELD : Why does anyone cross a road? I mean, why doesn'tanyone ever think to ask, What the heck was this chicken doingwalking around all over the place, anyway?"* FREUD : The fact that you are at all concerned that the chickencrossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity.
* GEORGE W. BUSH (2) : We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the roador not. The chicken is either with us or it is against us. There is nomiddle ground here.
* OLIVER STONE : The question is not, "Why did the chicken cross theroad?" Rather, it is, "Who was crossing the road at the same time,whom we overlooked in our haste to observe the chicken crossing?"
* DARWIN : Chickens, over great periods of time, have been naturallyselected in such a way that they are now genetically disposed tocross roads.
* EINSTEIN : Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road movedbeneath the chicken depends upon your frame of reference.
* BUDDHA : Asking this question denies your own chicken nature.
* ERNEST HEMINGWAY : To die. In the rain.
* RAY MACAULEY : Because the chicken was gay! Isn't it obvious?Can't you people see the plain truth in front of your face? Thechicken was going to the "other side." That's what "they" call it, "the otherside."Yes, my friends, that chicken is gay. And, if you eat that chicken,you will become gay too. I say we boycott all chickens until we sort outthis abomination that the liberal media whitewashes with seeminglyharmless phrases like "the other side." That chicken should not befree to cross the road. It's as plain and simple as that.
* NELSON MANDELA : Never again, will the chicken be questioned forcrossing the road. This is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.
* THABO MBEKI : We need to establish if really there is a connectionbetween the chicken and the road.
* ROBERT MUGABE : For all of these years the road has been owned by thewhite farmers, the poor underprivileged chicken has waited too longfor that road to be given to him and now he is crossing it in force withhis fellow war veteran chickens. We intend taking over this road andgiving it to the roadless chickens so that they can cross it without fear ofretribution from Britain who promised money to institute road reform.We will not stop until all roadless chickens have roads to cross andthe freedom to cross them.
* ISAAC NEWTON : Any chicken in the universe shall always cross a roadperpendicularly to the side of the road, and in an infinitely longstraight line at uniform speed, unless the chicken stops due to anunbalanced reactive force in the opposite direction of the chicken'smotion
* MOHAMMED ALDOURI (Iraq Ambassador): The chicken did not cross the road. This is a complete fabrication. Wedon't even have a chicken.
* RAILA ODINGA: Had the chicken signed an MOU not to cross the road?
*MWAI EMILIO KIBAKI: Kuku ilivuka pale ikienda pale pale!igeenda wapi penngine kubaff nyinyi mafi ya kuku
