Wow, it’s been a while since I did one of these. I guess between moving and starting a new job and what not, the blog got pushed back. But I’m pushing forward with news! It’s (probably) a girl! The lab tech says it’s too early to make any definite decisions, but we’d be safe buying pink things. So now I present to you:

Incorrect answers: A dark parking lot, a field, a back road, your parents house while they are not home, my house when I am not home, any place where you are alone and not easily discoverable. Other answers left up to my discretion. (-5 points a piece, no limit)
Show me your tattoos: (None to show +5 [-15 points if I later find out you are lying]/-5 a piece/ -10 a piece if they are not presentable)
If I find a boy acceptable,[7] we will move on to the final segment of the interview, the steel cage wrestling match. The only way to win is to escape over the top. If a boy can do this, I will give him permission to have one date with my baby girl. If he wants a second date, we will have a submissions match. Date number three will have a ladder match.[8] Anyone who can defeat me three times in a row, I will proudly call son-in-law.[9]
[1] My daughter will not be dating until she is sixteen, so I will have time to make alterations as necessary.)
[2] Like a college English class.
[3] I know, this is technically taboo, but this is my daughter. I will judge.
[4] Hypocrisy, thy name is…shut up, it’s my kid.
[5] Or if the boy has skipped a grade.
[6] This is not a jab at single parents. Logically, if the boy only has one parent at home, and that parent works, there will come a time where he could possibly have my daughter alone at his house. This will not do.
[7] BIG IF!
[8] Though I have yet to figure out how to suspend my daughter twenty feet over a wrestling ring.
[9] He better be around for good, because if he hurts my little girl, I’m breaking out the machete and the hockey mask.
