For the first time ever, I actually felt slightly guilty about buying a cup of Starbucks coffee, which I rarely do anyway. It must be that my wife and I are having a kid in the not-too-distant-future. Money, money, money. Last night was our first pre-natal instruction class.
I was amazed at how much I learned. There were so many classes in college and graduate school where, in two hours, I basically took in the fact that the walls were off-white. I’m not attempting to point my fierce naivite. But did you know that you don’t have to get to the hospital as soon as a woman feels contractions. I didn’t. In fact, one should wait until the contractions occur every five minutes for a full hour. And each contraction always lasts about one minute exactly; they occur from the top of the womb for the most part. I’m thankful.
Happy Thanksgiving.
