This.  Being a dad is awesome, you'll have so much fun.  Congrats Rob!

 

# 3 is on the way for me!

 

Come on man, we were doing well keeping pace, now you gotta go setting the bar for a 3rd one?? We've honestly been stuck having that conversation. I have my hands full a lot of days with these 2, and I'm just not real keen on doing that whole infant thing all over again.

She's got no leverage, all she does is pop it out, I have to raise it. Besides, the timing would have to be perfect or she'd have a vacation with no drinking.

We've been discussing it for a while,  part of the reason why we moved because we wanted the extra room in case we had a 3rd.  My wife had always been open to a 3rd, but it was definitely me leading the charge on having a 3rd.  With two daughters already it would be nice to have a boy this time, but I also like the idea of having 3 girls, yes I'm crazy!

You are crazy. The idea of 3 girls terrifies me. :)

We are finding out the gender of this one (went the surprise route for the first two) so I'll know a head of time if I'm having a 3rd girl.  The teenage years will certainly be an adventure, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there.

Yeah, the 5 year old thinks she's a teenager somedays. I don't know how I'm going to handle multiple teenagers.

And Tom Green just ordered a bunch of Jameson shots next to me. Wow.tyhuvere.jpg

I defy anyone to have a more random life than I do.

Edit: He confirmed on twitter and is following me?? Rock on.

Sassiness will be the least of your worries for the next 5 years.

All this kid talk reminds me of a nice Simpson's line from Lindsey Naegle, "I dream of an America with nudity and F-words on network TV, where the whole world doesn't stop because a school bus did. Children are the future…today belongs to me!"  :)

Got home from being out of town for a wedding on Sunday morning, and my refrigerator had broken.  This sounds like a rant, but it's not because:

 

1)  It happened the week after my big party instead of the week of or before the big party when I had about 100 lbs of food in the fridge or freezer.  Lost a little bit of food, mostly some frozen stuff and condiments, but the fridge was more or less empty over the weekend so not a big loss food wise at all (cheese drawer was probably the biggest hit).

 

2)  I think I've found the culprit (relay and overload switch blew out) and if that's the only thing that's broken, it's just a $40 part and I think a fairly easy replacement that I should be able to do myself and avoid paying a technician.  Compressor is still good, if it had gone, I'd be junkyard time for the fridge.

 

UPDATE: Fixed!  $35 part, only took about 10 minutes to put in.

Mack seems like a really positive and chill dude. I try my best in the game threads to push him to his limit.

My wife and DJ's Mother just became friends on Facebook.

 

This amuses me for some reason.

 

Such a small world sometimes.

 

I should mention they work together, makes more sense.
