Deena:
If I had a way to get an internet connection in the hospital, I'd be posting during labor... I don't think they'd stop me. Laboring women are scary.
In Firefly:
Tim Minear: p.m. -- a 40 minute version was never much with the sense-making. We might have just put bags over the critics heads and spun them in circles while it ran.
PM Marcontell: That's actually a reality show I might watch...
Allibelle: Oh, hello, was this a parade? Nice to meet you. My name's Rain.
I realize I'm a busy girl tonight-- but I've been away and y'alls funny
Trudy Booth: The thought of contractions freaks. me. out.
Deena: Why, Trudy?
It's, at this early stage, much like PMS cramping, but rhythmic. At present they're mostly focused on the front, which is part of why I think they'll go away. Real contractions, for me, usually start at my lower back and ripple forward.
Heather Alayne: Ok. It may be time for bed. For a good half a minute I was wondering why words like, don't, can't, I'd, and haven't, were freaking Trudy out.
Deena: Funny Heather. Maybe it's the scotch?
Heather Alayne: I've only had a glass and a half. Sorry Trudy, I have only had a glass and a half.
Apparently, labor stories can be funny, when Buffistas tell them:
Cindy: Deena can probably back me up here, by the time the baby is ready to come, you really don't care if Koko the gorilla delivers it.
Deena: When Nick was born and I finally figured out the whole pushing thing, they still had separate labor/delivery rooms, so I finally figure it out and start pushing in the labor room. The doctor tells me to quit while they move me to delivery. I tell him, "I CAN'T!" and he says, "Okay, never mind." and then he runs BACKWARDS, in front of the gurney, between my legs, hands out like he's about to receive a football pass, from the labor room to the delivery room.
Nick was born about 5 minutes later. I was expecting a girl. We argued for at least 5 minutes about the baby's sex until the nurse pointed out that if he showed me I'd stop arguing about it.
Heather Alayne:
I often think it would be nice to have billytea around up at the bar. When someone's going on and on about some stupid shit you don't care about, he would go, "Here's the interesting thing about stupid shit..."
Nilly:
Labor stories look scarier in written English than they seem to be in spoken Hebrew. At least to me.
ZoieFinch, in Angel (not spoilery):
We are very efficient with our summers here in Scotland, we can usually fit the whole thing into a single afternoon in July.
Billytea: Apparently there's been a survey done which found that women who were college educated were more likely to enjoy oral sex (both giving and receiving) than were high school dropouts. I can't help but feel there's a great pro-education marketing campaign in there somewhere.
Phill: Here at Yale, we don't prepare you for a blow JOB, but rather an entire blow career.
