Some of us will still be able to sleep in...

Having failed to take advantage of yesterday being "International Talk Like A Pirate Day", I was feeling rather guilty and a bit inadequate as a human this morning. There, now that that is out of the way, I can return to normally scheduled babbling. Well, as it turns out another change of season is upon us which means in go the t-shirts and shorts and out come the sweaters and jeans, unless you are part of the trend of being preggers as it would appear that quite a few of you are in fact, then it's Joey's eating pants which he nicked from Phoebe for you.

"Summer sun...something's begun...uhhh-oh ohh, those summer nights..."

But really, if ever there was a time to be pregnant this is the ideal season to be. I was turned on to this notion a few months back and it makes complete and perfect sense. So, to you wonderful women out there that are currently underway with new construction, look at how you get to spend the approaching winter months with a sense of relief and comfort. And then look ahead to next summer with a great sense of relief, you're not going to have to deal with hot summer days lugging around my dad's stomach.

But seriously, having spoke to all of my friends that are currently heavily under the influence of baby, hearing the excitement and genuine happiness in their voices, well, READING it in their words, if you want to be technical...made me feel good. Knowing that some of the best people I have had the great fortune of knowing and calling friends are going to be responsible for adding to the collection of personalities in this world of ours brings me a great sense of relief and hopefulness.

The world may not be in the best of hands as of late, but soon enough it's going to be wobbling around on some of the best little legs I can think of and that makes a person feel just that much better overall...even if we have to move the table out of the way from time to time.
