What is the worst feeling ever?

You mean when the male party is lying uncounscious on the floor because the macho man passed out at the beginning of the real "legwork"? :P

Hehe, I know not everyone passes out like that it's just a very humorous generalization.

I have the suspicion that the stereotype of the father that passes out at the sight of his labouring wife is due to much exaggeration. :rolleyes:

I was actually thinking of the more mundane reasons:

- husband in the military or other field of work that takes them far away :(
- husband deceased :(
- father a deadbeat who disappeared when he realized there were consequences to that fun evening :wacko:

To DeeBye:

Son #2 decided to arrive at the cottage, rather than the city. (I had made arrangements with a local doctor for that 'just in case' scenario.) Once an initial confusion over the reason for my middle-of-the-night arrival at the local hospital was cleared up (for some reason, they assume that someone puking into the garbage bin outside the locked door of the hospital must be coming in from the beach for a detox :whistling: ) the doctor showed up, a tad sleepy-eyed. He then startled both my husband and I by announcing "A watched pot never boils" and strolled out to get the caffeine he needed before returning. The line worked for him, but I can see how Mrs. DeeBye might not have been impressed. ;)
