Birth of a Natal I: 2 People Enter, 3 People Leave

This is it. This shit is real. We are having a child. The Redhead and I cruised over to the celebrity hospital early this morning and liked it so much, we decided to stay.

Now she’s on her epidural, and I’m on some sort of chair in the corner. We could have a long wait ahead of us. It’s a good thing the Bulls are on in a few hours. On the iPad so no fancy pictures, but I will be sure to keep the blogosphere up to date on all dilation, contracton and umbilical cord cutting. If everything continues according to the current plan, we’ll be having a Christmas Baby!

Stay tuned. I’ll be in the hospital bar.

June Gloom

Yesterday I realized I hadn’t had a drop of alco-hool in 7 days, so last night I proceeded to get hammered.

Today, I have a delicious hangover and little responsibility. I plan to move as little as possible and waste even less light. The wonderful gloom from the sky is perfect for lazing on the couch, enjoying the quiet that most certainly will not exist again, possibly ever.

If I had some Tylenol, it would be a different story. If I were able to stand up for longer than a passing moment without the dizzies… I would whistle a different tune. But no. The sun has taken the day off, and so shall I.

Time to order delivery.
