She also said that moms-in-labor have exercise bouncy balls to bounce on, and that she wishes that the balls had handles, like the hippetty-hop kids' toys of yore, so that all the big pregnant in-labor moms could have hippetty-hop races up and down the halls.

I failed to have the bouncy ball! I kept forgetting to ask for it! Honestly, I don't think it would have helped much, though.

Handles would rule on the things. Though they'd make it hard to drape yourself OVER the ball.

Waiting for the Zmayhem baby brings home to me how I will never escape my craving for spoilers. I can resist them (and do, with shows like VM and The Office), but it's not in my nature.

We already know the baby will come more or less today. And we know she'll be a girl (unless that's a foiler). And unless there's some bigass retcon reveal slated for sweeps, we know who her parents are (and who her sibling is). We even know how some of JZ's pains feel.

So, the average person might ask, "What's left to spoil?"

When I (and maybe that ought to read "we" because I know there are people here who will what I mean so well that they may feel the same way)...when I say, "spoilers," I actually mean, "SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I wanna know if JZ is having an epi, because she had to have the pitocin, and I want to know if she's okay with any modifications to her birthing plan. I wanna know if she's having any touch averse moments, and if so, how Hec's dealing with them. I wanna know if she got anything to eat before she went to the hospital, and if they're letting her have ice chips. I want to know the color of her johnny. I want to know if her parents are coming to the hospital before the birth, or if they'll wait at home.

I wanna know the time of birth. Down to the second. I wanna know if Hec cut the cord, and if he and/or JZ cried. I wanna know the baby's birth weight to the half ounce, her height to the half inch, and her names-as-appear-on-birth-cert. And who's filling out the cert, for that matter. And I want to know how Emmett is, and his reaction upon meeting the baby for the first time.

Give me the shooting script, because I want to know. Now!

Strike that. I want to know before.

Where's Leoff with the wildfeed?
