um...what was the question again?

You know how you never come up with the appropriate response until the question is too far in the past?
Most of the men I'll meet from here on out will be divorced with children and the conversation will, no doubt, go something like this:

Me: "So, how many kids do you have?"
Him: "Two" (or three or whatever) And you?"
Me: "I don't have any."
Him: "Oh? Do you want to have kids?"
Me: "Can we have dinner first?"

If he doesn't laugh, it means, a) he left his sense of humor in the car or, b) he's freaked out at even the THOUGHT of having more kids or c) in his mind, he's jumped ahead to the MAKING kids part.
I'll let you know when/if I get to use this.
