14 Weeks 5 Days Old

  I overheard someone yesterday say that the pain of being kicked in the crotch is like giving birth multiple times.  I couldn’t tell if he was serious or just trying to get everyone around him riled up.  Myself included. 

  I’m fortunate enough to say that I have never really been kicked in the crotch and I certainly won’t be giving birth so I guess I have nothing to compare it to.  Except for the fact that I watched my wife for the 30 or so hours it took her to bring Von Bebe into the world.  I watched my wife, immobile with pain through each contraction.  I felt her tightening grip with every push until 7:31am on January 9^th. 

   I’ve also seen a fair number of guys take it in the crotch.  In fact, you can too.  Just go to youtube and type “kicked in the crotch”.  Nevermind, here it is.

   It does appear to be quite painful.  But in almost every case, it appears as though the guy can get up after a couple of minutes and go about his business.  Except for the fact that there is an embarrassing video of him getting kicked in the crotch for all the world to see on Youtube. 

   Now that I have a child, I am sure that at some point I may get a chance to experience this pain.  I’ll put that off as long as humanly possible.

   Meanwhile, to all you guys complaining that getting kicked in the crotch is equal to or worse than the pain of giving birth, try getting kicked in the crotch every 2 minutes for 6 straight hours.  And if you still think getting kicked in the crotch is more painful than childbirth, you are a total ass.

Enough of that rant, here’s a video of Von Bebe talking up a storm.  And her parents acting like total dorks.
