Cut a hole in the back and write: "Place Drugs Here" with an arrow pointing to your spine.
It occurs that with all of the sprogging we seem to be doing around here, maybe we should have a birthing/parenting thread.
Not that I proposing it, mind you.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
A doctor once informed me that women lose blood every month and, since I'm a vegetarian, I'm not eating blood to replace it, and so I won't be able to have kids. (I was 15 or so at the time, and a bit too startled to counter with, "Um, India?") This was the same doctor who told me that my pain was entirely psychosomatic before he examined me.

Crazy doctors. I could add stories, but I'll just sit back and read for now.

How asinine.

I have occasionally thought this. I definitely censor my parent-related issues here, mainly because I worry about boring people. I wonder if the non-parents get tired of the topic. But maybe it's just like cats or baseball.
eta: I know sometimes doctors are necessary but there are so many reasons to avoid them.

For me it's like this. I'll admit to skip/skimming sometimes, but I want to know what's happening with my bitches, and I know I want to hear the "it was white and square and it looked like a tooth so I swallowed it" stories.

This.
I know the thread has really changed over time, partly because of the parenting stuff and personal stuff, but it feels like it's grown with us. I like it.

The good thing about online conversations, I think, is that you can skip/skim without anyone else noticing. I suppose we all self-censor some.

Welcome to the world, Dylan!!!
I have so many crazy doctor stories. The one that has been running through my head lately is when the doctor told me if I didn't stay 90 lbs, I wouldn't be able to walk when I got older. Of course, he may have been right.
My stepfather's retirement party was very nice except for the part where I went back to Mom's sick with a terrible stomach ache and had to stay here all night. All of my old teachers, except for my favorites were there. Plus, I went to high school with the other retirees daughter and we were able to catch up on old times and have lots of fun whispering about all the teachers.
