I have to go to a baby shower today.

I'd rather have my eyes gouged out. I hate a frou-frou shower. WIth its baby quiches and tiny finger sandwiches. And having to wear a skirt? *fart noise* Dammit.

Why can't they have bachelorette parties for babies too. Those I'm good at.

Don't you know? After you have a baby, you never have sex again. You become a sexless baby machine.

::snort::

When I have a baby shower, I want a dance floor, and REAL food and little tyedye, ACDC and Jimmy Eat World onsies.

You have to wear a skirt to them? Whoa. Are your friends/relatives fashion police about it? Mostly I wore skirts/dresses because none of my shorts were dressy enough to be around 'proper' society. And I'm there to celebrate the parasitic being that will one day become the Spawn of said friend/relative... not be harassed by nosey parkers.

I think that a baby shower is supposed to be about new life and duty, etc. Whereas bachelorette parties are about having one last good time before becoming part of something bigger than yourself.

And, fudge it. I'm not making sense even to myself anymore. Must need more caffeine.

When I had a baby shower we all wore jeans. And ate yummy cake. :-) I'm pretty sure that cake is the best reason to have a baby shower. Well, and gifts. Babies need a crapload of stuff for some reason.

. . sorta like a 'Here's to your last days as a fetus, enjoy it while you can!' party? Hrmm. I could see it. It'd have to be a pool party, I think, with the whole 'floating' theme. Maybe a hot-tub party. Huh. That does sound like more fun than a baby shower.

Because everyone would get hammered and no one would be able to change the baby...

though it would be fun, woulnd't it.

Hmmm... If I ever have another baby you're cordially invited to my baby-shower staggette! ;)

PS. Lovely icon! ;)

If the Guests start drinking tea out of ridiculously small cups with their pinkies at full extension, you must leave immediately. Be polite, but run. Such behavior indicates that behind the couch is an alien pod with your name on it. You'll get stepfordwife'd the moment you turn your back.

Well, as mothers-to-be are supposed to avoid alcohol, they wouldn't enjoy it as much. And baby decorations just aren't as funny as penis ones.
