My 21 year old Daughter called me last week to announce that she and her husband are expecting their first child. Immediately made the mistake of calling my mom to cry on her shoulder about my midlife crisis.

Duh.

And then... (no and then) Upon announcing the news to my beautiful young 28 year old girlfriend (its not all its cracked up to be fellas)... she waited about two hours to tell me that SHE is pregnant too.


Oy!

So Im sitting here at the piscatorial pursuits round-table, seeking the advice of my elders. Too much for this 42 year old teenager to handle.
Shower me with your wisdom before I answer the call of the 30 year old bottle o' scotch screaming my name from the unlocked cabinet.
