The Great Escape
Picture this: one minute, I’m chilling in a warm, squishy paradise, getting snacks on demand (umbilical cord delivery service, 5 stars). The next thing I know, there’s bright lights, cold air, and strangers poking at me. RUDE. I was unhappy with my lot, naturally, but apparently, that’s exactly what was supposed to happen. Mum looked exhausted but happy, and Dad was grinning like he’d just won the lottery. Guess I’m kind of a big deal.
Ah! The day I escaped I spent several days in the hospital. I wasn't unwell, the nurses just wanted to keep looking at me. I cried for no reason just to see what people would do.
So, my first day on Earth has been chaotic, even overwhelming. I've eaten for the first time, slept, and even pooped. I think I'm going to enjoy this "being alive" thing.
