To any and all who care...

My wife and I have conceived our fourth child. We just learned of this fact today. The only forseeable problem at this point is whether I'll be able to make it to GenCon--the due date is July 24th.

My wife is doing well, has only had very mild symptoms. Our daughters (Victoria, Rene'e and Ruth) are excited and asking many, many questions.

We are all very happy and excited.

Evan

So this is why you are/were dragging your feet with the RPG!!! My advice - more creation, less procreation!

Well... Not exactly, no.

And, for the record, 97% of the RPG is sitting in Lady Anaka's possession for editing.

I have turned my attention to the artwork.

We are still trying to make our planned schedule sending the book to the printer in late January or early February.

Our planned release date is May 2003.

Do you think it's unreasonable to tell my wife that "hey, babe, you've had 3 already, you have this thing figured out pretty well, I'll be at GenCon--call me with the pertinent information when you know it...."?

Yes, I think so, too. Totally unreasonable.

<heavy sigh>

Symptoms? How can you have mild symptoms of pregnancy?

"Oh I see, you're pregnant. It's only mild, go sleep it off."

No, it is totally reasonable! A fourth child? In this economy? I stopped having sex to write a novel!

Morning sickness.
Sore breasts.
Fatigue.
Irritability.
Loss of appetite.
Etc.

Those are referred to as "symptoms", I believe...

Darth Sophia wrote:A fourth child? In this economy? I stopped having sex to write a novel!

I have not found chlidren to be that costly of an investment. But, then, we do cloth diapers, grow much of our own food, live rather humbly and have a single income household. Except for their extracurricular activies (like swimming classes, skating classes, dancing classes, etc.), I've not noticed them as a financial burden at all.

Of course, we don't have cable television or any major expenditures other than our house and my hobbies...

Evan

P.S. Thank you all for your words of congratulations and kindness. I have forwarded them on to my wife whose response was, "You woke me up for that?!" <grin>

Congrats, Evan.

Hey, I have sore breasts. Could I be pregnant?

EvanMoore · Post by **EvanMoore** » Tue Nov 26, 2002 7:09 pm

Brineshrimp wrote:Hey, I have sore breasts. Could I be pregnant?

Depends.

How many times were you fucked by a man in the last few weeks?

Have you missed a period?

Oh, yeah, do you have a vagina/uterus/fallopian tubes/egg sack?

Might want to invest in a pregnancy test just to be sure.

Evan

***HINT: If you stand up to pee on the stick, chances are, you're A) not pregnant or B) one sloppy woman....

You should probably stop rubbing them so hard.

DrunkenMaster · Post by **DrunkenMaster** » Tue Nov 26, 2002 8:35 pm

Congratulations Evan, here's hoping your wife has a boy to help you balance out that estrogen.

In other news. My youngest sister(still older than me by 7 years) just gave birth to her first child on Saturday. A boy, 6 pounds plus change. Now I'm an uncle six times over and number seven from my oldest sister is on the way sometime in January.

Allow me to answer your questions one at a time.

How many times were you fucked by a man in the last few weeks?

I was told there would be no math on this test.

Have you missed a period?

These periods you speak of intrigue me. Hey, wait a minute!!! I thought Thorn was the grammar nazi. Don't you start harping on my punctuation, whore.

Oh, yeah, do you have a vagina/uterus/fallopian tubes/egg sack?

Well, duh. Of course I do. I keep them in a nice air tight jar for safe licking.

Might want to invest in a pregnancy test just to be sure.

Uh, okay. Will there be math on said test?

Evan

Hmm, Evan. I don't think it quite has the right ring to it, but I'll consider it as a possible baby name. Thanks, though.

***HINT: If you stand up to pee on the stick, chances are, you're A) not pregnant or B) one sloppy woman....

You mean you get to pee on something?!? Pregnant or not, I'm so there.

*runs around excitedly at the thought of marking sticks as territory*

Never believe a man when rubbing breasts is the beginning of the equation...

...they can only be trusted to say whatever will continue the action once it has begun...

Eh. More children? Four?

Well, all things considered, I suppose I trust you more with child-rearing than I do most people. You have aboust as much blessing as you're going to get from someone who thinks breeding should be heavily regulated. Just don't take up smoking crack or anything, allright?

Ah, man! You never let me have any fun! Gee whiz, dad. <kicks ground>

Thanks, Kunan.

As we approach the birth, maybe I should have a contest for what to name the newest member of the household.... Hmmm...

May I suggest either Phylos or Sophia?

There is only one name for a child....

Jestyr · Post by **Jestyr** » Fri Nov 29, 2002 11:59 am

Starts with "B", ends with "OLTGRINDER"?

Twisted Sister · Post by **Twisted Sister** » Fri Nov 29, 2002 2:09 pm

Ooo! Jes! Ooo! I know this one! Um.. lemme think...umumumum, it's on the tip of my tongue. Gah! Boltgurder?...Blowrinder..Shit, it's gone.

Brineshrimp · Post by **Brineshrimp** » Fri Nov 29, 2002 2:38 pm

My suggestions:

Vagina-Washer

Filopian-Maggot ("Filopia" if it's a girl)

Yoda-Shit ('Cuz who's da shit?)

Dung (it's pronounce "Yung" in Vietnamese, but who needs to know that?) Pile

Just a thought.

WillyGilligan · Post by **WillyGilligan** » Sat Nov 30, 2002 8:46 pm

Salutations and congratulations, breeder man. Damnit, there's babies everywhere and I'm starting to catch what my wife has. Haven't even potty trained the last one and I'm thinking another crumb-snatcher would be awfully cute.

Mental note: After Christmas, get a puppy.
