Would you Poke a Growling Lion with a Stick?

I know it's been a long time, a really, really, looong time since my last post.  But you'll have to forgive me,the business with my new job, new house, and being pregnant have been quite distracting.  So, I just read this from The Guy's Guide to Surviving Pregnancy, Childbirth.... and felt the need to share it- with everyone.
'And if the waiting and swelling aren't enough fun for you, there is also the fact that your very grumpy bride will no longer be able to sleep, as the baby has grown so big that it is nearly impossible for her to get any rest at all.  So she's swollen, tired, gassy, in constant back pain, cranky, bruised on the inside from the baby making her into a human punching bag, constipated, suffering from hemorrhoids, still gassy, getting false contractions, frightened about the impending labor pains, frantically packing and unpacking her hospital suitcase because she keeps forgetting to put shit in there, still freakin' gassy, and just a joy to be around in general.  So whatever you do, stay out of the way.  Do absolutely nothing to piss this woman off.  Would you poke a growling lion with a stick?  Of course not.  Just do what you've been doing all along.  Smile, nod, and say "OK" to whatever she says'
Enough said folks.  Happy holidays and hopefully I'll post again, something more cheerful perhaps?

  1. That's funny... I remember those days. Once your little bundle of joy gets here, you'll both forget all about it.
