For obvious reasons, i have come to the conclusion that missiles are anti-social.
They will never stop on the street to "catch up" with you.
You won't find them at back to school night, lingering by the refreshment table looking for someone to chat with.
And you know very well that if you happen to be checking your mailbox at the same time, missiles will not wave and say hello.
They won't even give you "the nod".
You will invite them to your barbecues in an attempt to bring them into the circle of friends that you call your neighbors...they will not RSVP.
But what you need to understand is this.
As much as you will never understand why missiles do not want to be your friend, know that you do not want them as a friend.
If they stop you on the street,perhaps with carriage in tow, know it will only be to comment on how ugly your child is.
If they bump into you at the food store, know they will only address you passively by commenting on the close relation of your waist size and shopping cart contents.
If they happen to be in front of you in line at the post office, know they will make every attempt to prolong their transaction by asking about the limited edition stamps.
Know that you will have many friends in your life.
Know that they will show interest in your existence.
Know that that you can't make friends with everyone.
Know that you don't want to make friends with everyone.
Know that missiles will suck you dry.
Accept that missiles are anti-social.
