he he he
From a woman who's at prime child bearing age, has no interest in having children herself, but suffers through photo after photo of people's baby bumps and baby photos on facebook......I'm going to have to thanks you Christina. The baby thing gets old after a while (sorry to all those ladies with babies, but I think this is the thread for the anti-baby women after all).
Now, to see about posting that video on facebook.....

Anxiously awaiting the preggers clausti like an insufferable grandparent. I then further intend to torment "clamhead jr." with stores from back-in-the-day before his/her parents met, with a highly overblown emphasis on the minor role I may have played in that eventuality.

LOL, she reminded me of clausti, vaguely. I can't put my finger on what makes it so, b/c there isn't any real likeness. Maybe it's b/c I first heard the song in clausti's interpretation, and she was trying to mimic the girl when she was doing it.
And yeah, it is oh-so-true, isn't it?

that's hilarious, because I have a total crush on the keyboard chick. Her name is Kate. She is awesome.

I thought the keyboard girl was reminiscent of Shirley Feeney from LaVerne and Shirley.
And I have to say that I don't think I have ever know a woman who acted smugly about her pregnancy. Women who shared about feelings of euphoria at times, yes. Others who admitted feeling as if their body had taken over and could give a damn less how they felt. Others who told about having the sensation of an alien being growing within them, and the upset at viewing their child in such a way. Excitement, exhaustion, emotional surges, extreme sensitivity to smells and sights that never were an issue before....
But smugness? Not really.

perhaps your method of expressing yourself on this topic reminds me, and could inform you, of why people think you are a killjoy.

no, because you take a concept that lots of people here seem to identify with and then post a rambling bit of ?counterexample? i feel like that's too strong a word.... belligerently. like you're throwing down a gauntlet and begging someone to argue with you in a thread that was just about a silly video.

Really? Hmmmm......
You didn't catch that I was being facetious?
edit: with the Shirley comment, not the gauntlet throw down. That was intentional.

she makes somewhat fewer rubber faces when she's playing mandolin instead of keyboard. concentrating harder, maybe? but she freaking rocks the mandolin.

as someone who has been known to mug the occasional rubber face, I can't really comment, but,
she' plays the mandolin too? damn! keyboards, ukelele, mandolin...what can't she do? ;-)

it may never occur. i am pretty terrified of the entire pregnant, giving birth thing. let's see, gain 1/4 of my body weight, then pass a baby 7% of my normal body mass through what are *not* birthin' hips?

when people asked me if I wanted a boy or girl, they expected me to say "oh it doesn't matter as long as it's healthy" so when I said "I want a boy" no one knew quite what to say. Cuz like duh... we all want a healthy baby. I told the name and I knew my baby Daddy (aka my Husband).
kinda funny. Not all pregnant women are smug. Just sayin'.

so i am sitting around with a knee injury and i happen upon the "ladies room"....kinda bummed to have to wade through all the "look at me...i am preggers and still climbing waaaaaah~" to get to women (not women and their unborn aliens who will further warm our globe) who climb posts....when i find this, which kinda says it all.
not sure if smug is the word i would use, maybe just "boring".

Considering all the preggo threads have subjects clearly marked, only whiner here seems to be you. "Look at me....I am injured and have to read about pregnant climbers waaaaaaah"

This thread was on my mind when I got trapped in a room full of moms at a party. I escaped but one followed me and of course, all she could talk about were ... guess. Ugh. But, I was a good sport.
