heh.... Watched spinal tap again last night...
the drummer that drowned on vomit... someone else's... and they could never prove who's it was...
[hack]
OK.
That's just nasty. :-P
Evening EGE: I hope the car had an automatic transmission. :-)
It's good practice for those among us who aspire to motherhood ;~D
I'm told that there's a lot about motherhood that is unsanitary :~D
Where's CSI when you need them?
I'm not sure if *any* of it is sanitary. Anyway, you can't scare me with motherhood horror stories, I remember my little brothers as babies.
Childbirth, on the other hand, sounds like it's just got to be some sort of elaborate joke. Surely you show up at the hospital the first time and they say "You didn't really believe that's how babies get out, did you?" and you all have a nice laugh...
I agree with you :~D
Of course, that's also what I said when I learned about where babies came from in the first place... seemed like a really strange design to me... but heck, I was 11, what did I know?
Yeah - I'm not buyin' that one either... I mean... I've never seen a stork big enough to carry that much weight.
It can be a pleasant experience thanks to epidural intervention.
Becky's birth was a miserable time for everyone, but Aly's was quick, easy and virtually painless.
Hehehe, epidurals sound like wonderful things to me. Did you have Becky "natural childbirth"?
This is how the contractor guy described me to the prospective client:
We would like to recommend Rose in RoseBear for your open position. Rose comes from more of a technical background. She has worked extensively with both MS Access and Excel, and has been self-employed as a Database Architect for more than five years. She is capable of writing macros in SQL and VBA, and extracting data from Access to Excel. Her experience with SAS has given her statistical analysis experience as well. Rose's educational background includes a BS in Computing and Informational Sciences. She is available to interview and start immediately.
<bemused> Don't I sound slick?
Whoa! Look at all those TLAs and buzzwords!
I'd certainly hire you. Good luck!
[sigh]
Well, sorry gang, but I gotta lay down for a bit. Nite nite! :-)
Sorry, Jen :)
More difficult to learn, but still possible. Included supplemental hand-braking.
Yeah. Well, I tried. Fell into the trap of wanting to "tough it out" like mothers before me had done.
Forget it, sis.
It was twelve looong hours of back labor and towards the halfway point, the doctor insisted I have some Demerol injected so I could pass out between contractions. Otherwise, you're too tired to push when the time comes.
By the time Becky came into the world, I just wanted to curl up and go to sleep and didn't want anything to do with her until later that night.
I regret it too, knowing how it could have been.
Some folks are able to just pop 'em out like toast though, so you never know.
Feel better soon, Ramius. :-(
Most excellent, Rose!
