"You know, people think the '60s were wild, free-wheeling. Groovy, even. You want to know what best sums up 1967? Picture a middle-aged salesman in a motel room in Topeka on a vibrating bed, ashtray on his stomach, watching Johnny Carson. The room smells of Old Spice, Winstons, Hamms and regret. There's your swingin' '60s, pal." - James Lileks

It burns when I pee. But that's not really your problem, so nevermind.

Baby is out! May I introduce: Charles Matthew Hearn.

I'll have more details tomorrow, including a lengthy description of the process, which started out Nicely, moved into Painful, spent a lot of time in Surreal, and finished in Exhausted but Happy, for all parties. Right now it's 3 in the damned morning and I just got finished uploading all the pictures on Charles' site, so I'm going the hell to bed.

And before you ask: Yes, it feels really weird to be a father, in the awesomest way possible.
