The only childbirth stories I could contribute is the story of my birth. That's the one my mother tells frequently, that starts with "I had YOU by natural childbirth. They didn't have time to give me anything."
Mal: You know, you ain't quite right. River: It's the popular theory.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Why should you store vodka in the freezer?
It tastes better very cold, and the alcohol content is so high that it doesn't freeze.

It gets thicker, which is really nifty.
t edit The vodka gets thicker. The freezer gets fuller, but not technically thicker.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Susan, if there is a history of allergies in your family, cautious is good.
No allergy history, really. I'm just instinctively cautious on the common allergens, and a little lazy too--I get into a rut with what I feed her and how and then realize, oops, she's growing up, so I can't keep feeding her the way I did two months ago.
Plei, we're very happy with our pede, though somehow I doubt you'd want to come all the way to Northgate every time Princess Tickybox has a checkup.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
ya know...i never thought there'd be a time when the sound of ice cream or cake icing didn't sound good. having it in mixed conversation about birthing babies and bowel movements has cured me of that particular misconception.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Thanks for the vodka info. I learn something new from buffistas every day.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Um, Plei? I totally get Babs/Dinah now.
Hee. I notice you also get the Ted love.
And is it wrong to totally love Lady Shiva? Because I so do.
She's the CUTEST KITTEN IN THE WORLD!!!1!
Oh... wait.
You mean the character. Nope. Not wrong.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It's discussions like this that make me want to rethink the whole having kids thing altogether. That and I really don't want to move again.

We're planning on sticking with the UWMC, on account of the Close-to-Paul's-Work factor.

I DO!!! And I love how Tim is a total Blue Beetle fanboy. But Ted just drops off the face of the planet after the whole cardiac thing -- what up with that?
