If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Well the title says its all, its not really sunk in yet but yes im going to be a dad in about 8 months time.
Its all a bit sureal right now to tell the truth, I keep saying 'im going to be a dad' but it hasnt hit home in my head.
We have chosen not to tell many people yet, and Suzanne has a huge family, of which myself and all my closest friends are friends of, so we dont want to spread it around to quickly right yet.
Still, I love Suzanne, and I know she will be the best mother in the world, and im looking forward to telling my child that Galvatron is the best TF ever...
"im going to be a dad"... nope, still hasnt sunk in yet!

Congrats, buddy.
Might be an idea to be stood apart from people when the doc says "Congratulations, it's a -" around Hallowe'en. Wouldn't want to risk crushing anyone when it finally sinks in and you topple over.
Nah, you'll be great.

#1 on that list, by the way, is when the gal loses her wedding ring, you can score some good dad points by offering to search the baby's poo for it. The reason that is bad advice is that nothing may entirely be worth that.
[EDIT] Does that sentence make sense?

Don't worry too much about the jitters, btw. It's really true... at least in my experience... that dads have to make a bit of a visual connection with the kid to feel like a real dad. I felt guilty for not getting as excited about the whole shebang as Chrissy, but it was all waste.

It seems almost everyone I know is spawning. I'm just going to buy a big box of baby jumpers with "I'm a _____" printed on them, and let people fill in the blank themselves.
...
Anyway. Congratumalations?
