Wait, wut? So quick baby update and a big thank you to some very nice people for sending gifts to the house. Its been a truly wonderful experience to understand how many people are wishing the little guy well. I’m super pleased that he’ll have a whole group of crazy aunts, uncles, and inflatable sheep to make sure he doesn’t turn into a giant pain in the ass.
Blankie Engineered by NASA
Thanks Roamyrocketchick for the wonderful blanket! Everyone loves a good blanket because its warm and fluffy and made with love.
Here’s a quick easy test to figure out how great blankies are:
Did Hitler sleep with a blankie?
Answer: No.
Le Color Matching Prowess
Thanks T in FW for the awesome artwork to hang in the babeh’s room! I don’t really know how you got the exact color right, but it sort of looks as if you came with me to Sherwin Williams and we had a long discussion about what color would compliment Repose Grey. Nicely done in terms of sentiment and design. GND was blown away (maybe cried a little) and absolutely loves it.
Diapers n’ Shit!
Who doesn’t love a good diapering, eh xBrad? Thank you to the various rah’tards in my life that sent diapers, butt paste, wipes, more wipes, lots of fucking wipes, and more diapers. I expect that we’ll be needing that stuff as the big day approaches.
Last thing: The baby will be named after my dad and is scheduled to be delivered on his grandpa’s birthday. Funny how things just kind of work out.

Your friends probably *are* better than my friends. Most of my friends are worthless. If you want to call them “friends.”
Chi, you’re my friend.
Despite your best efforts, you’re child will be an asshole at some point.
Your
Yeah, but we’re just trying to limit the assholery to normal levels.
Child privilege!
As someone who couldn’t have children, I feel triggered.
Just kidding – I’m from the “get over it” school of thought.
And I’ve fixed my login.
They make baby food MRE’s now

But you won’t need them for at least a little while

I’ll have to see if we have any 1yo girl clothes to send you for when he starts identifying as a girl.

I actually have a book that I found really helpful that I was gifted and you might get something out of.
Wait, who’s Miley?
I would ‘a friend of mine,’ but then you’d just say “who the Hell is Chi?”

Looking good, MJ! Honestly, the color match is just serendipity, but I’m glad that it coordinates so well! So what day is your grandpa’s birthday?
Aww, MJ got a new bankie for his bed…
I need a toothbrush, but that means getting dressed and driving around until I find a pharmacy…
I totally would have sent some stuff, MJ, but I don’t know where the hell you live.
I love you freaks. Paste eating window licking MFers
Don’t let it be known that you didn’t send anything, and you’ll get credit for something that didn’t have a return address. At least it’s a chance.

Where the fuck are all my diapers?

I’ve moved twice since your comment.
What are you going to do with all that stuff once Car in steals your bebbie?
I’ve moved twice since your comment.
Why not thrice?
Me stealing the baby is part of his plan. He just needs to pick it up when it’s around 13. Those years are apparently not my forte.
Colex, most hotels have toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, razors, depilatories, bunion pads, rosin, duct tape, phillips-head deck screws, rat poison, combs, etc. at the front desk.
I’m 3 for 5 right now on the teenage years. Ethan’s ok, and erin may right her sails. We all need to pray for Hannah. She’s taken the work hard/play hard mantra to extremes.
I know, but I didn’t see a toofbrush earlier when I was walking by.
New Jersey?
What exit?
You probably have to ask for the toothbrushes. They don’t keep them out because you can file them into a shiv.
New Jersey?
What exit?
I’m actually on Staten Island.

Charming area.
Alex, do you have business in NYC?
You need to drive there. It’s an amazing experience.
Say hi to The RZA, the GZA, Inspecktah Deck, Raekwon the Chef
You-God, Ghost Face Killer and the Method Man for me.
I’m here on business, doing a housing market analysis for the DoD. I’ll probably drive into Brooklyn tomorrow evening.
Thrice would be uncivilized.
You’ll have fun.
That whole area is absolutely crazy.
Check out Manhattan if you can.
Try to imagine navigating that shit before GPS.
Checks in at H2. Goes back to tracking sharks and turtles on Shark app
I’m already getting birthday wishes with the today sucks afterthought. Sharing with CoAlEx. Try to enjoy your birthday, for what it’s worth
Mare,
Hope you are okay. Looks like lotsa rain & offshore flow…
New Jersey?
What exit?
Mr. RFH is from exit 16W.
MJ, glad you like the gifts. Hope GND has an easy delivery of a healthy baby.
Your mom is familiar with offshore flow.
I like to imagine that there are two characters named Offshore Flo and Coastal Eddie who are responsible for the weather around here.
Coastal Eddie has good weed.
Offshore Flo is a mean drunk.
Coastal Eddie isn’t allowed within 100 yards of a high school anymore.
Were the dual birthdays today or tomorrow?
Regardless, Happy Birthdays.
This is how a Hostage goes to a concert:

Coastal Eddie will sell you a toothbrush for a dollar.
You wouldn’t know it to look at her today, but Offshore Flo was in Penthouse back in 1973.
Did you never call? I waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The trees will bend, the cities wash away
The city on the river there is a girl without a derp
Can’t wait for the blog to transition (cough) from baby rooms to muscular women
Tested 3 MRE heaters that were 5+ years old. Two worked, one didn’t.
Hope our Florida folks are okay. Irma is moving into my neighborhood today, school has already been cancelled.
wakey wakey.
Not boyfriend may be getting the axe today.
I’ll be not surprised.
MMM in about 15 minutes, did my morning chores first today.
*waits
Waits with Carin…

What did notaboyfriend do?
Welp, we dodged that bullet, A few trees down but we never lost power, no windows were broken and no water damage at our house. Hope my daughter’s home faired as well.
MJ, so, so happy for the two of you (three of you)!!
