    So how should I presume?

    This sentence contradicts itself - no actually it doesn't.

    Oooo! What did you steal? And did you escape by using your awesome ancient mod-ninja powers?
    If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.

    Me too... from the moment I went into labor until 3 days after I gave birth I only slept for 3 or four hours.

    one thing: except for the hospital staff, I was all alone when my son was born.

    I can't stop watching a movie once I've started - even if it's terrible.

    What? You mean no camera crew, presenter or audience of any kind?



    Joking aside, it must be hard, Katy. Was it an emergency delivery?

    Oh, that's unlucky; however, I know ladies whose husbands had just stepped out to get some ice or make a phone call for 10 minutes when the baby decided to show up! At least yours had a "legitimate" excuse.

    haha, that's true! He did show up 3 or four days afterward, but I was kind of batty when he got there... thankfully one of my friends showed up on the second day or so

    It's always cold and dark on my birthdays

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.
