My boss, Johnny, is hosting a co-ed "anti-shower" for me and Jason on October 12. I told him I wanted it to be fun for everyone involved without a lot of gushing or scary games... and from his description of the party in the invitation he sent out today, it sounds like we're on track for a good time!
This baby shower is not your usual, run of the mill baby shower. It isn't really even a shower. It's really more baby shower adjacent. All the flavor of a baby shower without all the empty calories. There will be no stupid games or loud squealing. No guessing the baby's weight or the size of momma's belly. There will be no giant cakes made from diapers or pacifier shaped straws and erasers on the table. There will be no annoying fawning all over the momma to be, saying things like "you're glowing" or "I bet it will be a boy". Instead, we'll either ignore Tania completely or tell her how much labor is going to hurt. We'll eat like pigs and drink from straws shaped like shotguns and say things like "would you like another martini?" or "do you know who the father is?" Complimentary epiderals will be given at the door, so please make sure to dress casually.
I have a feeling this shower may result in some... unusual... baby gifts :-)

Johnny rocks. My boss says some crazy things but never anything like yours. I'm guessing Johnny never cloisters himself with his word processor like ol' Harold.
Can't wait to hear how it goes, can you get someone to record it????
