Sweet dreams, Darling...

Things not to say to your pregnant wife when she says, "I hope I don't have anymore nightmares tonight."

1. "Did you know that there's ethnic cleansing going on in Iraq now?"

OK there's just one, but it deserves its own list.

I have a cold and my morning sickness seems to be back, so I've been sitting on the couch all day reading about baby stuff on the web. Here are a couple of cool sites I found.

You need java enabled for this one. You type in a name and see its popularity from 1880 to the present in a cool interactive graph.

For this one, you enter time start and time end of contractions and it calculates the duration and interval of the contractions. Pretty cool!

Actually, I was just thinking about how lucky we were, lying safe and warm together in our bed, not having to worry about being ethnically cleansed.

I will concede that my timing and delivery need work.

... okay, I'm an idiot. :-)

No way - you're the best. How many men would drag a futon on their back for 10 blocks just so their wife could sleep more easily?

yes Greta, he IS a star. But is it true that he was just practising ... to carry you on the futon, on the hospital run?? What a guy! Now drop and give me 20 Jim.
