partner CJ: how do you characterize your time evolving demand for toilet cleaning?
me, seeing no method of sketching a graph at hand: uhh… it's sorta like a log… can I demonstrate with my voice?
CJ: sure
me: aaahhhhHHHHH
CJ: what a terrible way of conveying that information.

CJ is used to getting baby photos from me by saying GIBE every couple of days, and today I decided to be difficult
partner CJ: where's the bubble wrap? the person I hooked up with left her headphones behind and I'm going to ship them to her
me: [points him to the right room]
me later, hearing him about to head out to the post office: can I see the wrapping job
CJ: [shows]
me: do you want to sleep with this person again
CJ: hm. yes
me: then add another layer of bubble wrap
some years ago I used spaced repetition software to memorize all the non tiny island countries. but I never memorized the US states. and I didn't grow up in the US. hence:
me, searching for Manhattan airbnbs on CJ's behalf because I like browsing airbnb: oh, that one's cheap!... never mind, it's on the wrong side of the water
me: when I was young I had no idea New Jersey and New York were so close together. I didn't know until I was actually in NY a few years ago and asked someone next to me what that other city was. I thought New Jersey was like, in a different state
partner CJ: it is
me: really? what state?
CJ: the state of New Jersey
me: ಠ ͜ʖ ͡ಠ
me: so tell me the gossip
CJ, who recently moved to NYC for the gender ratio after years of my haranguing him about how he'll have a better dating life there than in a male-skewed city: I've been going to various social dances 5-6 days per week, and yesterday someone picked me up
me: as in you got laid?
CJ: yes
me: say it.
CJ: you were right. dear.
me, bellowing: GO EAST, YOUNG MAN

// content note: childbirth
failing to schedule an induction because I don't want to give birth and somehow believe that if I don't schedule it, it might not happen
there are two partners it would make the most sense to have in the delivery room (the coparents) but the one I would find most helpful is the non-coparent-partner CJ, who has no bedside manner and would (upon my explicitly soliciting this kind of comment, anyway) say "wow, the visual goings-on in fact seem congruent with you dying" or "yeah this is pretty gross" or "she's covered in womb cheese, do you want some". this would be more soothing to me than big eyed loving concern. the anti-doula
I have a silly verse I sing to the creature in this disgusting baby voice:
Croak, croak, croak, and she's wearing green. Could this be a little frog? She kicks a lot and says croak, croak, croak. This could be a little frog.
I have a number of animals on rotation for this. Her waking-up cries sound like barks on the baby monitor, so I also say, "Bark, bark, bark on the baby monitor. Could this be a little seal? She's very round and goes bark bark bark..."
CJ, who was in town and adores the baby, seated her on a chair at the kitchen and stood back, ready to catch her if she fell off one side.
I'd sung a couple variations of the little frog song in front of him at this point. I chanted, "She sits like a people and has a hairless face. Could this be a little people?"
He lost his shit :)
partner CJ, who got me into partner dance last year, said "he has great body isolation" the first time Mr. Milchick danced on screen. I hadn't noticed but suddenly did. and every subsequent scene where Milchick danced was zero percent about the tension & emotional resonance of anything else going on, and one hundred percent about his moves. to me
