When Chris and I were dating early on, we had a scare (yes, I know, premarital sex, moving on) and I was so nervous I was pregnant. My period wasn’t late at that point, but I think I freaked myself out because of missing a birth control pill or two. I remember taking like 78 pregnancy tests, all negative, but it still scared me. What if we were pregnant? Would he stay with me? Would we move in together? Would we get married? Sometimes, when I step into my time-machine, I like to go back to that month and point and laugh maniacally at those idiots. Oh the irony! Yes, he stayed with me. Yes, we lived together. Yes, we got married. No pregnancies though.
