-agree rich.
-Also, get your partying in asap. The window for go time starts in just a couple weeks and you can't be taking an uber to the delivery room. Booze and naps, stock the f*ck up while you can.
-Good news for you though. You're stuck at home with nothing to do but worry about the little gal and have a few drinks. I always took the late shift for the first 6 months. So I'd get him to sleep about 9 then pour a nice brown water and read a book until midnight feeding. Little dude out cold next to me. Bad news is I didn't get any qualify sleep after that until 6 months in.
-Rich won't be one of those losers that has a kid and gives up on everyone in his life. That's turbo whack. We know a few of them. I'll tell a story on that in a minute. Not everyone is like that.
Story: Finally get my boys from college together at Lew's wedding and if course we're foolishly planning annual trips together so we don't go years without catching up. One of the biggest partiers goes, "honestly I don't do anything without my kids." Smh. OK pal, then let's get the families together or stop being a weirdo and go hit some golf balls with the guys you spent your formative years with.
You can be a hell of a family man and still maintain contact with your buds. Rant over. Rack me.
