Insulting the Circus Freak

OK. It's official. I'm a circus freak. I wasn't prepared for this and it wasn't part of the plan, but it's happened. People are asking insulting/inappropriate/obnoxious questions of me everywhere I go. They point, stare, gawk, and gossip when I walk by. They share intimate details of my life with strangers and then set up situations for us to meet so the strangers can gawk too. I am now avoiding social situations so I don't have to bear it anymore. They are upset my replies to their questions and my postings on my blog. I don't know what to do anymore.
I am an exremely sensitive, sarcastic, and cynical person by nature (the perfect mix of my parents). Because of this, pretty much anything somebody says to me upsets me and then my replies insult them. I don't know why people think it's ok to ask questions like "Why don't you look pregnant yet?" or say "You can stop posting belly pix since you don't even look pregnant in them." I'm supposed to let this roll off my back. Sorry people...No...can...do...
My blog is my time to vent. Yes, I'll post fun news about the babies, but right now there's not a lot of new news. What is new is my disdane for this new life in the fishbowl that I'll be living for the next 18+ years.
All I ask is the next time you ask a question or make a comment, think first. If you don't like the frankness in the blog, don't read it.
I don't like being negative here, this is supposed to be a happy, baby, cuddly, sunshine, and blankies place. I also don't like crying in my car, on my couch, or in my classroom. I feel like it's robbing the babies of all the water I've been drinking for them. I don't need the unnecessary stress in my life...for my health...for their health. Please, please, please, try not to insult the circus freak.

I can't believe that people would be so hateful to you... If they don't want to enjoy your journey, perhaps they should stop reading about it. I think you look lovely...
