Apparently, he’s expected to host some big get-together while I’m stuck in the hospital, because that’s just how things are done, right?

My husband and I just shared this one look.😁
He tried to explain to them that the idea was completely insane to us—that him drinking and hosting a party while I'm lying in a hospital bed is just wrong. He told them he’ll be home looking after our daughter and getting everything ready for when we finally head back from the hospital, so we can all celebrate together once I've actually recovered.

And those looks they gave him...🤣 It was like, "That's not how you do things." As if he isn't entitled to celebrate the birth of his son however he damn well pleases! Like, heaven forbid a man doesn't get wasted the second a baby is born just to show he's happy.🙏

We explained it again.
No, it’s not how it works.

We explained it yet again.
"Well, I guess you won't be joining us for a drink then!" they snapped.

🤣
Honestly, I'm just waiting for them to show up at our doorstep uninvited.🤣 My only regret is that I won't be there to witness the drama.🤣

Good grief... 🤦

Is this really happening?
Was it this much of a mess when you guys had your first kid?

How tough is the material?

...if it's just proofreading with some notes, I'll take the gig for $5.00 without doing any transcription.

No offense, but for basic proofreading, $5.00 is way too much...

Do it. Seriously. My guy took me to a movie once and we had a blast. Just good vibes and laughs...
Better to pick a solid flick than some lame, sugary rom-com. At least you'll know you actually have taste. 😛

Honestly, "Volver" is such a vibe. It’s funny and heavy at the same time. I never really gave Penelope Cruz a second thought until this movie, but man, she was incredible. Everything about it—the themes, the characters, the plot, even the supporting cast... just hit different.
