Sparky! I gasped so loud that my coworker asked what was up! Congratulations!
I wanna hurt you, but I can't resist the sinister attraction of your cold and muscular body!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I believe I actually used the word gobsmacked.

Yay Sparky baby!!!! (Ooh and not that baby will probably actually be born on due date but 5/24 is my brother's b'day.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
It really is astonishing. It will be interesting to see what the defense will be, but insanity or substance abuse seem to be the only options.
Sort of makes you long for a good old-fashioned sex scandal.
OMG SPARKY, THAT IS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Sparky!

Yes you did. Considering I was rather surprised myself, I can't blame anyone for that kind of reaction.

The baby and I have to discuss, because 5/25 is my nephew's birthday. And since my U. gives me NO MATERNITY LEAVE, and I am the family breadwinner, I have to at least consider planning Babyfras' arrival.

Because books.
No maternity leave? Seriously?!

They must have FMLA, though, right? I mean, there's no religious exemption for that or anything.

FMLA just means they can't fire you, though. It's unpaid.

Oh, Sparky! I just skipped sadly-too-many-posts in Natter, just in time to congratulate you on your wonderful news!
Is it OK to ask how you're feeling? Or are you tired of being medically asked about it and don't wanna talk about it any more?
Also, hello, everybody! Today is the first day in, oh, near two months in which I didn't have to teach any class, at all. I'm trying to design Simpsons patterns for a kipa I was asked to make for a friend's wedding.
