So I've just learned I am about to join the august ranks of the Parenthood.

I'm going to be a father.

Holy #^@(*.

Thought you guys might like to know. In case I drop off the face of the net again. I've got a Youngling on the way.

congratulations Daddy!!!
I have three great kids (who all love SW: even the 2 year old!)

If you can be there for the birth then do it! I was with my wife for all three and it changes you! I love being a daddy (though sometimes a little less than others :wink: ).

Thanks, all youse guys. (/bronx)

Seriously, though, I'm really excited and just a little scared stupid. And Tenric? It would take an act of God to keep me away from the birth.

My fianceé and I have determined that we're having a Geek. There's no two ways about it. Between my SW, both of our computer fixations, her music, and my food geekeries, there's no way s/he'll be able to help it.

Aw, you're in for some fun! I'm a daddy of an 18 month old girl. She already loves lightsabers. I think you'll have fun. Providing for them is the smallest part of the equation, though some people might have you believe otherwise. It's a great responsibility. And that's the biggie. They'll duplicate whatever you model in your life - both good and bad. Keep us updated. 8)

Oh, HELL. I guess she's going to learn to wiggle her ears and speak in tongues when angered. Good thing I don't drink or smoke. Or date boys. Ever.

LOL. Just had that vision of me sitting at home polishing my lightsaber collection when she brings the bf home.

"You see these toys? Well, there's another one. I keep it in my nightstand. And it works. If you ever want to see it, just break my little girl's heart."

That's awesome, congrats! I had a little girl that's almost 4 months old. She likes to look at all my toys when she's in my room, and she seems to like watching me swing my lightsabers around. I'm planning on getting one of Ultra's youngling sabers for her eventually.

It's fun, it's hard sometimes (but she's pretty much an Angel, she's only difficult on the nights she doesn't want to go to sleep), and the responsibility of raising her properly terrifies me. But it's too late now. :D

Grats yourself, Ryan. Maybe we'll try making her a teething saber.

Congrats! That's awesome!
I work with teenagers and I can tell you that our culture needs decent fathers in a bad way! I know you'll do great!
Whatever else in life gets shelved -
GET THIS RIGHT DAD!

Pfft, heck with that classical stuff, my baby listens to Depeche Mode and the Cure (when she's with me) and she's a genius already.

What happened to the old days where people got married, then had kids? :? Are you planning to get married befor the baby arrives? I guess I'm just old fashioned. Or maybe just old. :P

I guess I just don't understand the excitement of having babies, because I never got to do that myself, so my maternal instincts have never been switched on. I just never met the right guy that I wanted to have any with. And now I'm too old to even want to think about having kids. I missed out. :(

My mom has to "borrow" the kids across the street, and has sort of become an honorary grandma to them, since I never gave her any grand kids. :oops:

Well, Congrats Someone has to carry on the species, since it won't be me.

Congrats man. make them listen to john williams music instead of that mozart stuff, you know to stimulate the brain and whatnot.My parents actually did exactly that to me. Star Wars and the Superman theme. It obviously had a bit of an effect on me.

When my mom finally figured out that SHE was the source of my fixation on geek stuff, she (sarcastically) started pouting.

congrats, D.A. (or would that be D.D. now?) no wonder you haven't been droppin' by the chatroom lately, you've been too busy scoring, huh-huh. can't blame ya for that one.

yes, show the kiddo EPIV at age 3. that's the first time i saw it in the movie theater, and i clearly remember that Star Destroyer chasing the blockade runner. it'll change the kid's life....it sure did mine. why else would i be here?

us geeks are like the Borg, we must assimilate all, including our own offspring into the wonderful world of geekdom.

and i wouldn't worry about any potential suitors until she's at least 11 or so. that's when it's time to do a Bernie Mac on the fellaz with the non-toy on the nightstand.

congrats again, amigo. i miss talkin' trash with ya in the chatroom.

p.s. you did get a mention in the TCSS Theme Song as "D.A.", can't remember if you posted a "thanks, Mi Gin" reply on that thread or not. i don't think ya did, slacker!!! :P

Thanks again, fellas. And Mi Gin, if I didn't post in the themesong thread, I am deeply honored to be mentioned in your song. I just hope that within fifteen years we can perfect closed-loop arc plasma technology.
