For a brief moment, I was pretty certain yoyo was the same other girl that had that thread last week that went silent that we thought might be Justin *again*
but alas, you're a real live lady. Very funny, hope you stick around...not very many can tolerate our musk for more than a day or two.

Like my new truck, Yumcha? It's straight from Deutschland- my father in law sent it over for my birthday 
I found it interesting that the number of parts isn't included anywhere on the box. I thought that was standard.

and for Chad...
I love her, and for other people with kids sharing pics and stories, sure I'll join in.
but 1) I respect that people without kids (for various reasons, choices or health) may not want my fucking kid shoved down their throat constantly. It wasn't that long ago that I was the guy standing there like why don't you shut that fucking disgusting thing up and no I don't want to hold it (I already admitted I still feel that way for other's kids)
2) I'm very aware and afraid of losing what makes me me...I feel like the kid should be another facet of my life, not define me...my friends used to say that I'd stop working on cars etc...I always thought, well, easy for them to say but then again, they probably weren't coming home from work and messing with camber or motor mounts even before they decided to skeet in their wives. So when presented with a logistical challenge, I don't try and find reasons to procrastinate or not to get something done, I take it as a challenge and try TO get it done despite the adversity. The other day, car jacked up...wheel off, balljoints separated...fuck me, I need 36MM socket...advance auto is 10 minutes away on foot...fuck it Z, we rolling ninja, wake up from your nap (I considered leaving her sleeping and going 'real quick' on bike but thought what if something happens...I think that's child abuse...). Want to take pics of the car...fuck it, she can chill in her chair...want to work on the car, sit her in the little rocker thing...she watches, she cries, she sleeps...fuck it, Daddy got shit to do kid, this is the way the world works...you don't always get what you want right this second. Today, cut the grass...she was still asleep in her car seat (in her room, not in the garage with the car running)...came back in every 15 minutes...still sleepin...mow...edge...come back in...trim and blow (
)...came back in, she's screaming her fucking head off...ALRIGHT KID, you're awake! LOL...showered and gave her milk. Mind you, Betty is much more intolerant of letting her get mad or cry...I don't mind it.
So, bottom line...I wasn't sure I wanted a kid...now that I have one I love her slightly more than my cars and more than my wife. She does complete me, but she doesn't define me. I'm still me. I don't expect anyone else to find her cute or like her or have to hold her or wipe her ass. It's my responsibility and my problem. We'll start venturing out soon to restaurants to get her used to it...a movie or a dinner with a baby should NOT affect the people out trying to have a good time. My baby isn't their problem...and they shouldn't have to hear her bitch or deal with any unruly. Same with my dogs...I don't let them bark...it annoys me that other people might be annoyed by something I choose to have.
and
all your and Johnny's compliments earlier were super sweet.

I'm slow clapping right now, J. Everyone in the office is looking at me.
I like how you understand and say:
"We'll start venturing out soon to restaurants to get her used to it...a movie or a dinner with a baby should NOT affect the people out trying to have a good time. My baby isn't their problem...and they shouldn't have to hear her bitch or deal with any unruly."
I understand when a child makes a bit of noise, but some parents are out of this world- just let the child scream and don't do anything about it.
You're the kind of parent I'd want to be if I ever got there. I'm sure I'd love having a child (remember the "I HATE DOGS!!"
), but I'm quite content not having one. It's a big enough struggle trying to be a grown up myself

I appreciate the post, man...that's very kind of you to say. Let's hope I can stick to my guns and this kid doesn't get too out of hand.
I appreciate ur restraint lol
