I ran over a snake in the road. I ugly cried for 2 hours thinking about his snake family waiting for him to come home and him never showing up. Those poor snake babies. My husband was just like, “What?” which made the snot bubbles intensify. The kicker: I hate snakes. And they don’t even live in families!

I knew there was something wrong with me. I assumed it was because the labor was so difficult. If I waited long enough, all of my bad feelings would suddenly go away.
