"On the Boob"

I had a funny conversation this morning with my property manager in Detroit.  He was calling to update me on the status of our rent for the month and had heard that we're expecting and congratulated me.

He then went on to entertain me about all the ways I'd be torturing Jason when the kiddo arrives.  He was talking about breast-feeding and how the kid will pretty much be latched "onto the boob" all the time.

He went on to explain that Jason should be prepared for such maddening requests as:

"Honey...I know my water is only one foot away, but can you please get it for me?"

Eric assures me I WILL be asking...because the baby will be "on the boob" and asleep, and I won't want to wake him/her up.

Another maddening request, explains Eric, will be when Jason sits down on the couch next to me and the moment he sits down, I'll suddenly remember something I needed.

I was seriously cracking up.  Eric has a toddler at home with a baby on the way (due at the end of the month).  I told him he should write a book...it would be hysterical.

Thank you, Eric Novack for giving Jason and I something to laugh about today!  I'm glad to know you - and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
