As is well documented, I have grown a "baby beard." It needs trimming right now. I have been waiting patiently for this baby to get the hell out of my wife so I can simply shave the whole thing off rather than trying to make it look pretty again. Should I hold out another day or two, or admit defeat right now?
And then...Just wanted to clarify that I'm not shaving until the baby comes. The decision is whether I should trim it now, or hope the baby comes within the next few days and I don't look too much like a bum between now and then.
I'm getting that really excited feeling. The one like I got before the wedding. You know, the one where I talk a little bit faster and smile a little bit more and act a little bit more social. The one that made me almost hug James at work when he appeared at my office door. It's the feeling of unbelievable joy that pushes my emotions into overdriven confusion. I think I like it.
After kissing my amazingly gorgeous, one-day-past-due-date pregnant wife and filling my water bottle with some orange juice, I stepped into the hall, locked the door, and made my way to the far staircase. As I approached the second floor landing, the stairwell door opened and an attractive young woman holding a more-than-half-empty jug of Vodka joined me in the stairwell, at 7 AM. The final clue is that her car was not parked in a regular parking space, but parked right in front of the building. And there wasn't anyone waiting for her, she was the driver. Your guess is as good as mine.
And then...As my wife pointed out to me, I should have offered up my orange juice for a round of screwdrivers.
When I had jury duty, they swore us in. I was curious to know when exactly we are able to lie again. Does the swearing wear off after a while?
I thought I'd try to be innovative. I thought it would be interesting to give commenters the top billing on this weblog. You know, a place where you could post a truth and it would be up there for all to see. Now it just looks like an advertising banner. No more.
