It's been eons

As usual folks, I have neglected livejournal for a disgustingly long amount of time and am now trying to make amends in a sudden fit of regret, nostalgia and computer literacy.
As some of you may know, and many may not, I have just returned to Santa Cruz, California from travelling the fabulous likes of New Zealand and Hawaii. Jeff and I were off adventuring for a good forty days and we had an absolute blast. More on that later (maybe).
On a more important note: As many of you already know (via the grapevine of juicy gossip), and perhaps some of you do not (via my dispicable lack of communique), Jeff and I are having a baby! I am truly sorry that virtually no one heard this news from myself, as I was waiting for some amazingly perfect opportune time to tell people. Apparently the news travelled faster than I had anticipated, and Jesus H. Christ I should have anticipated cuz come one, it is indeed the juiciest of gossip! Don't feel bad or left out if you are actually just now learning this exciting news because it was not I who decided who knew or not.
So yes, tis true. At some unknown time in March I am going to officially become a Mother. Crazy, no? We decided to not seek out the sex of our child and so it shall be a surprise. I am currently taking bets =).
Alright friends, that said and done, i must go shopping for some kind of hideous flowy moo-moo-like attire that will accomodate my expanding person.

Congratulations, from across the mountains in San Jose. I had heard said juicy gossip earlier but had not the opportunity to convey my congrads.

Re: Congrads

Thanks Jeff. And who knows...my Jeff and I haven't been able to come up with any decent boy names so it might end up as a junior...but you can tell everyone we named him after you.

I had heard the juicy gossip but was holding out for first-person confirmation.

I want pictures of you expanding, because I can't quite imagine it.

(My bets are on a toaster. Because you can never have too many toasters.)

Just so long as it doesn't bite on its way out!

A toaster seems appropriate...plus, there's an umbilicial cord and everything.

So true.

You'd probably have one of those toasters that toasts a pattern or a message onto the bread.

Funky patterns until it turns one, then it'll toast out it's first word and we'll frame that piece, or bronze it.

WHaaa? I never heard. I love you, and congratulations, and you're amazing, and I hope I see you sometime.

And yes, Robyn expanding should most certainly be photo-documented.

Sean.

Thank you Sean...I'm sure we'll all be down to SD at some point once the babe's old enough and there will definitely need to be a reunion of sorts.
