We attended our first childbirth class this week which was extremely entertaining. Quite an aray of people. The girl on our left was one year out of high school. Her boyfriend, who works for Dollar Rent-a-car, was very excited about how his boss told him that when the girl goes into labor, he can take any car on the lot to drive up to the hospital. He spent 10 minutes sharing his options - a Hemi, a Crossfire, etc. Meanwhile the girl tells us that she has been seeing midwives up in Waimea (which is kind of far from Hilo). I asked her why and she said because she wanted a female doctor. Fair enough, right? But then she goes on and on about how a girlfriend of hers had a baby and a male doctor. She told the doctor she did not want him touching her down there, not even during the delivery and he did! She was outraged. Anyway the couple on the right were full-on making out the whole class - gropinng and wow. Then there was the Hawaiian entourage int he corner, pregnant Piilani, with her sista and her sista's twin 5-week olds and her auntie.
Anyway, I chose flattering pictures of myself. Maybe I should post a huge one too just for kicks...tomorrow.
