I've Made a Huge Mistake.

From "The Girlfriends Guide to the First Year of Motherhood", regarding what you should wear in the hospital after giving birth:

"I am an advocate of wearing the fanny-baring gown the hospital gives you until you are ready to go home because any pretty new nightie will soon look like you were slaughtering chickens in it."

After reading a little of that other book she wrote while I was at your house on Saturday, I've come to the conclusion that that lady loves to come up with gross descriptions for things. Surely there is a more tactful way of putting that.

oh, and to keep the Arrested Development quotes going. After reading that and other things in those books:
"Well, I'm all grown up now."
