I Call Dibs

So I'm thinking if Uzbekistan doesn't work out, I'm going to look elsewhere. It seems that the adoption pool for most other countries is rather crowded and the wait is over a year.

But did ya'll see that a NASA telescope picked up an image of a female form on Mars? (officials are trying to spin it and say it's just a 'rock formation' but whatevs.) I can't imagine that she'll have the support system and means to raise children. I mean, hell, if I were the only female on Mars, I'd be enjoying my freedom, sowing my oats, and flaunting my 'stuff' to all the men on the planet. No time for kiddos for me if I were that female Martian.

So dudes... this is official. I'm calling it. I gots dibs on Mars adoption.

You people go look elsewhere for international/intergalactical adoption options.

You can have the mars men. I have one of my own at home. But he's more like from Uranus.
Love that mars girl. They have tons of artifact photos from mars. This is not the only one. A rock.. Maybe a small statue? She's rockin it out on mars.

Hey! Thanks for the comment on my blog. I haven't met anyone adopting from Uzbekistan. How cool! I'm excited to watch how yours progresses :)

I just tagged you, if your back from Mars, go see on my blog:-)

That ain't no rock! But it could be a statue of the Martian female leader.

Ok, you get dibs on the first intergalactic adoption. You might want to start your p/work now. Also, I'm curious - how would you explain 'race' (or is that 'species'?) to your Martian kid? You know how we have to talk that topic to death.

Amy can have the men, there are enough aliens males here on Earth.

How do they know it is a female? Too funny. Why would Uzbek not work out? Did I miss something?

Now hold on there missy. Not so fast, this is virgin territory. I will talk to my social worker, who has amazing connections and she will make up that homestudy. I mean, make that homestudy...

Do you think they're gonna need ya to make one trip, or two?

OMG...we're practically at that, aren't we? When did we, the single independent women of the world become one of the least desireable groups to adopt from nearly any country that doesn't have a gazillion people in line? I know many singles who are WAY more stable than some of the couples I know....Mars? Sign me up...at the rate China is moving I'll have a vacation home on Mars anyway before my Child comes home...

That is really pragmatic and open- minded of you. It's good to have a backup plan.

Would that still be international or intergalatic? Still I will give you have dibs :)

But what if she's not cute enough? What about the language barrier? She looks naked - what if she is not suited to wear clothing? How are you going to help her connect with her Mars culture? I bet you know squat about Mars cuisine?
Uzie, don't do anything impulsive. Talk to a lawyer..... my partner just happens to be a family lawyer.

How will you handle the weird questions about where she is from - you know, "is she really yours?", etc. My hubs was recently told that our Chinese daughter looks just like him. What if you are told that?
