no way, baby Hey kids! I'm getting my tubes tied in less than a week! How awesome is that? I'm having a cookout on the 9th. Wanna come?

I registered my tubal at Target's baby registry. Little Tubal Ligation is due 10/5 and wants stuff. Oh, I amuse myself.

I have to work all night overnight tonight for a release and helped someone move today. I'm already lit. Hooray.

Congrats, pieoverdone! As a fellow not-having-kids person, let me shake your hand. I'll be at the cookout in spirit, at least.

I never regretting having it done. If they haven't already told you this, with a laporoscopic procedure, they pump your belly with gas so they can see around more clearly, so don't panic (as I did) when you come to looking like you're six months pregnant. Wear something loose-fitting and be prepared to fart like never before.

Are you gonna post pitchers of your little Tubal later, pieoverdone? Nothin's cuter than a sleepy/squally Tubal, dontcha know.

I hope it's reversible. The odds are you'll change your mind when you get a bit older.

LOL J/K
