Wanna see something really gross? This is REALLY GROSS.

It’s amazing that I managed to survive to my current advanced age with all of my limbs intact. In fact, the number of injuries I’ve suffered over the years has been relatively minimal, although when I’ve hurt myself, it’s been via doing something really stupid. This trend continued this weekend, when Brian came over to […]

Every couple of years, I feel the need to assert my manliness. Not via bullfighting or boxing or modern dance or impregnating my wife, but by going against my non-hirsute nature, disobeying all laws of science, and growing facial hair in some form. In the past, it has always ended in horrible tragedy, but this […]

It is flat-out retardulous that there isn’t a Target near my house. The nearest one is in what is basically the least accessible part of New Castle County for me. Getting to that North Wilmington location involves only 10 or so minutes on an interstate, but then upwards of 15 on stoplight-ridden thoroughfares to get […]

I don’t know how Sarah did it. Childbirth, I mean. For that matter, I don’t know how I did it, what with my propensity to pass out, but then I didn’t have to DO anything. Sarah did all the work, and I just stood there and held her hand, and it was still the hardest […]

Okay, I don’t have enough time for a major league update (I’m still working on my little play-by-play of Tuesday’s action), but I did have enough time to upload a bunch more pictures of Charles: click here, y’all.

Uploading is painful from the hospital because I’m on 56K dialup; getting 4MB of photos online […]

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 […]

Baby’s still in there, and really, really, REALLY does not want to come out:

We had one more ultrasound, and then our doctor tried to lose his watch inside my wife, and has informed us that we will be getting induced on Tuesday, if the baby hasn’t try to wiggle out sooner. […]

The kid continues to be irritating, what with its steadfast refusal to enter the cold, angry world, breathe deep the sour medicinal air, and submit itself to the incompetent care that only I can provide it. So I took the opportunity to buy some consumer electronics.

The Radio Shack near us, in University Plaza, […]

Okay, this baby is just f&%#ing with us now.

Last night we went out to dinner, and when we got home, Sarah started having what she described as “something.” So we waited to see if it would turn into actual contractions, but eventually it stopped, whatever it was. So we went to sleep.
