Yeah, but even I've been accused of having too pointy of elbows in this thread. It happens.
As long as we are doing pregnant stories. Many moons ago I was good friends with a couple and she was late months pregnant. Hubby friend was traveling a lot and she wanted to see the movie Chariots of Fire so I drove across town to take her. While waiting in line for tickets she a had spontaneous mommy-to-be-meltdown. Everyone is looking at me with dagger eyes that said “What the hell did this ***-hole do or say to his pregnant wife to make her cry like thatâ€. I am thinking “Folks, I am just the family friend and this is a hormonal overload, I haven’t been abusing her, everything will be okayâ€. And it was okay just a few moments later but I was still getting the dagger eyes from all of the Maplewood Mall busybodies.
The Apology episode from Seinfeld said it best:
- Elaine: "Whoa! Walking around naked? Ahh... that is not a good look for a
man."
George: "Why not? It's a good look for a woman."
Elaine: "Well, the female body is a... work of art. The male body is
utilitarian, it's for gettin' around, like a jeep."
Jerry: "So you don't think it's attractive?"
Elaine: "It's hideous. The hair, the... the lumpiness. It's simian."
Generally those who breed them will refer to guinea pigs as "Cavies" which would also include capybaras and agouti.
Another funny from FB
PS: "no bewbs"
Yeah, more useless information I learned at work.
yeah and by "late", I was thinking like 10-11pm. 2am is pretty late. I just can't find an excuse to not have been checking the phone! 2.5 weeks before a due date is "any day now" or did he not realize that after 2.9 kids?!
The men here are pretty delicate.:smile:
Not gonna defend my doosher neighbor, but his official line today is he wasn't expecting her to go into labor because it was two and half weeks before the due date. When he came home shortly after bars closed at 2:00, he saw my angry note and hightailed it to the hospital. Got there ten minutes after his son was born.Not sure what his excuse was for not checking his phone. This is their third kid and the labor went fast, I woke her sister up with a call after midnight and she met her at the hospital and coached her through labor, not that you need much the third go around but I sure didn't want her going through it alone. When I told their little girls this morning, they wanted to name their brother after our dog. Better choice than after their dad.
Both of them will be sleeping in the same house for a while!
I'm sort of a designated problem solver here at work. I've run into a scenario where every option leads to a worse outcome. I'm feeling mortal and not liking it one bit.
I have called the wife a couple of times because the little girls want to go see the baby. She is making excuses for him.
Apparently his cell battery was dead and he didn't know it? Seems like he would be checking that thing at least every hour anyway.I think he should get his tail over here and take his daughters to meet their brother so I don't have to dig a car seat out of the basement that hasn't been used for about 12 years. I think he is afraid to see me in a not public place. Maybe I will go back to their garage and see if the wife's car is locked or if I can get her car seat.
The five year old claims they don't use a booster seat or anything but a seat belt on her.
Good one.
I finished an evening midterm and then drove about 150 miles to be there when my oldest was born. I was only going about 5 over the speed limit at first because I was told I had plenty of time. By the end of it I was going 30-35 over because I was afraid I was going to miss it.
I have lot of randomness I could post, but I'll start here. Watching TV with the little ones. I'm not paying enough attention to see who these characters are, but they bear quite a resemblance to the SNL characters. So far the cartoon characters have not broken into song.
