though i was ambivalent about having kids, now that i have one i'm so glad he's alive! we call him gus, and sorry everybody else, he is clearly the cutest baby in the history of everness. of all the things i've made, he was the easiest and most fun. making him was the easy part, getting him out of my body not so much. i'm proud to say i managed it without the use of drugs; nothing was ever more painful or more worth the pain. his smiles make my heart hurt.
