Two funnies on parenthood

  • Apparently there was a period in the 18th century when it was trendy to look pregnant, to the point that women bought fake stomachs to complete their stylish attire. All I can think is this would only seem fun to somebody who hadn't been pregnant...

  • Meanwhile, one full-time stay-at-home dad recounts his need for a makeover, as the increased time at home, combined with a sort of sympathetic response to his kid's super-basic clothing needs, have caused him to regress on all fronts.
    Grooming myself has gotten to be like caring for an old house: as soon as you fix one thing, something else goes to hell.
    Heh heh. The vagaries of parenthood meet the vagaries of aging, perhaps...
