Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
if not, let me know and I'll jump on the post office.
Suddenly, I had a vision of bonny a la Godzilla tromping about her town and dropping a world of hurt on her USPS.
and your success is another reminder to stay on top of it. And good on ya for sharing the wealth.
You can do it! Zenkitty too! Heck, y'all were the ones who got ME to do it. Just happens that work has a med center attached to it, so they have a bloodmobile, and send out notes all the time. For those in SoCal, apparently they do it 3 days a week. I can find info if you want.
Oo! Speaking of. It's 16:00. I can take off these annoying bandages! (ouch)
the season finale of Top Shot
I like that show. About the only reality show I watch of late. I was hoping the kid would have won. Actually, first was the kid, then the gal, then JJ. The dude who won annoyed me early on. I tried to get my BIL to try out for Top Shot 2 (retired Marine sniper). Alas, it looks like he is real close to finally getting a job (it's been almost 3 years!) and will involve time over seas, and not available to do the show. :: sigh ::

This has actually happened...on more than one occasion.
Top Shot
Yeah, I severely limit my reality show exposure, preferring to leave the drama to other people's mamas. TS is enjoyable because it is totally skill based. You make the shot, or you don't.
I was actually worried that JJ would win. That would have been a bit too 'dream team' for my liking. It was interesting to see what tripped him up, and gratifying to hear him taking responsibility for it...unlike that Blake guy who was so annoying with blaming knives for not being guns and blaming guns for not being like other guns. Grow up Mister!
I can see why Iain would bug, but talent will out. He was the most consistently successful. I honestly think the woman would have given him a run for it, if she had been able to stay.

Yes! I can't believe how long he lasted. And Denny! Nice guy, but his specialty gun, kept messing up on. I can't believe how many times he didn't get nominated for elimination. Brad annoyed me a bit too.
I'd be curious just how far Tara would have gone. I think the challenge that wiped out Kelly and Adam might have eliminated her. Not sure. I hope, if she wants, they would let her into Top Shot 2.
I wonder if a woman who describes childbirth as beautiful while she's holding her child would necessarily have described it as beautiful while she was screaming and hurting and bleeding and shitting and people were staring at her vajayjay.
FWIW, my experience of childbirth involved no shitting, screaming or bleeding (until it turned into an emergency C, which involved the usual amount of blood for abdominal surgery). I'm not gonna say labor isn't painful, but I feel like the way it's been described in this thread makes it sound like something out of a Saw movie.
I may have growled. And there was a small amount of puking up a Snickers bar I'd foolishly eaten right before transition. But no screaming or shitting, and just the usual amount of blood.
Labor and delivery just wasn't that bad, all told.

This was Wallybee's experience too, more or less (I can't say it was completely devoid of poo, but that was Ryan's contribution to the process, not the 'Bee's). One thing that kind of surprised me, and it was my sister's comment too, is how dull it was for much of the time.
I always thought screaming during childbirth would be counterproductive. I didn't want a headache on top of it.
I have three kids and each L&D was very different. None of them are anything I would have wanted to filmed to show every Christmas, for reasons that don't really have anything to do with more than modesty, but they certainly weren't horror shows.
And with something like childbirth, there's so much emotional content attached, it's hard to separate that from a really objective "Wow, this hurts" perspective. Bringing a whole new human being into the world doesn't seem like something you should be able to do without a bit of sweat, honestly.

I am NOT laughing at anyone's childbirth experience, but this description made me cackle loudly enough to make the sleeping dalmatian wake up, give me the stinkeye, and then go back to sleep.
ION, within the past 2 hours or so, all of my joints have started aching. That's just weird. Is there a pill for that? Or a recommended alcoholic beverage?
Maybe just the microwave not!rice-filled sock and bed.
Oh, I should add that all I know about childbirth I learned from TV and movies, so I assume delivery is 90 seconds of scream, scream, push, and ta-da! Strawberry yogurt-covered 3-month-old baby!
...it's not really like that, is it? Because I don't think any woman should be manufacturing yogurt of any flavor.
