The first few seconds elicited a predictable response. Written for 12/29/07 DFF Challenge.
Whoa, what the hell is going on out there? Hello! Someone's trying to sleep here.
Geez, I swear when I find out who's been causing all that racket, I'm gonna go ballistic.
Let's see, where was I? Oh, yeah, I was napping.
Gosh, I love it in here! It's nice and warm.
A bit cozy, and I can see how some people may be a bit bothered by all this wetness, but, I tell ya, it grows on you.
Heck, this is all I've known all my life.
'All my life.' Ha! Sometimes I crack myself up.
Ugh, there he goes again, trying to talk to me.
Hello! Can't really understand you! It's all 'mmpf, mmpf, mmpf' to me here!
Whoa, it feels like we're moving again. Going pretty fast.
What in heaven's name is going on out there?
Ooof!
Okay, this is really getting annoying. You people need to take it easy out there.
Yikes! Are the walls caving in? Wait, it looks like someone's pressing from the outside.
Crap, that last one touched me!
Whoa, I feel like I'm being...turned?
Heehee! This is kinda fun!
Huh? What's that above me? Kinda bright...
Hey! What the? It feels like my space is getting smaller.
I'm being pushed up toward that bright...hole?
And I'm getting closer to it.
Ack, my head! My head's blocking the hole!
What the? The top of my head feels cold!
What the hell is going on?
Ack, I'm sliding through the hole!
It's so cold! And noisy!
Something's tugging at me!
Help!
Ouch!
Oh, no, you didn't!
Did you just slap me on the butt?
Let me tell you how I feel about that, buddy!


"Waaaa! Waaa!"

"Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Seville!" said the doctor through his face mask. "It's a boy!"
