Kathy, on baby showers:
Kathy: Can’t we just show up with our shitcan genie and get drunk? lol
I don’t know about you, but we are of the firm belief that baby showers should be open bar.

Fabulous since 1973. Blogging since 2003. Drinking since noon.
amen?
NOW IT WORKS! HA!
DOUBLE-WORD.
We are trying for our first and I already told my man “no classic baby showers. They’re fucking boring as hell.”
I want a guy/girl party, treat it like a b-day party on a Sat. night and just have some fun. Or maybe a day bbq party depending on the month. Save the classic borefest for the moms.
Open bars and no stupid games. I’ve had 3 baby showers and my one and only mandate was that there be no stupid shower games. Plus hubbies and men were invited. My baby showers rocked!
I have a kid and I still hate baby showers. Its the one event that you need to be medicated at… especially if they expect you to ooh and ahh at onsies and play “guess that smell”.
How does one do that sober?? *flask*
The mom to be might feel left out of the fun, but I’m sure the others would enjoy it.
Heh. And the security word for a drinking post is “floor”
As in one tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor.
I think you do this on purpose.
The last torture I endured was for my best friend. Her mother-in-law had games like “who has the poopy diaper?” She cut up little cloths and folded them like diapers and inside one of them was a Raisinette. I was mortified. I should have switched it out for a cat turd. That will show them.
The other game was ‘break the water’ where this little baby was encased in ice and you had to melt it with your hands. First one to melt wins. I found it really morbid to see this little baby encased in ice. I kept singing “Ice, Ice, Baby”. They were not amused.
I don’t have a baby yet but I can’t hardly wait this moment. I’ll certainly have a baby shower.
