TM #386 - Do you have children? If not, do you want them one day?

[nerdherdchuck]

[Locked to those who know of his secret life.]

I don't have any children now. I do wonder what it would be like to have them someday though. But, the spy life...I've seen what's done to my family. Both my parents were part of it and both of them were not part of the lives for my sister and I for several years.

Because of the spy life, I honestly thought they abandoned us only to find out, that wasn't quite true. Especially my mom. My mom even had to lie to me to keep her cover in tact when we found her.

So what happens if Sarah and I have kids? Would we be able to be with them? Would missions call us away for months or years on end? I don't know. Plus, there's always the risk that they would be in danger. What would we have to pretend to keep covers and keep them safe?

I guess the short answer is 'I don't know.' It's a decision with a lot to think about, that's for sure.

Ready. *Though he doesn't really sound sure. Not that he actually falls over, he stumbles quite a bit.* I definitely need to work on this a bit.

This part used to mix me up a bit at first too.

*Chuck slowly demonstrates the steps for this section a second time*

*The slower steps help, but still it's taking a bit for him to get used to it. Once he's through it a few times, he's definitely more comfortable with it.*

I think you're getting this part down now.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

I certainly hope so. It will not help if I trip all over everyone else when we do this.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

I'll make sure you have this down before my wedding.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Most certainly. I assume we will do it there. I think I should ask Claire if she knows it.

It's usually one of those songs that shows up on the list along with The Chicken Dance.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Chicken dance?

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

It's a very silly dance that has you waiving your arms like fluttering wings.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

I know...it's....strange.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

To say the least.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

You don't have to do that one if you don't want to.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

I should try, neh?

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Sure, why not? I can teach you that dance too, if you want.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Is it easier?

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Actually, it is.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Perhaps a break from this will help me with the other.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Wanna take a break from the Electric Slide then?

*Hiro nods.* I think my body wants to do something else for a moment.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Okay. Chicken Dance, it is.

The first two steps you basically mimic clucking and wing flapping. Then you shimmy down a bit and then clap, all to the music.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

What music?

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

I'll have to pull up the music so we can listen to it.

*Hiro gestures to the computer he's got Chuck's iPod attached to.* Be my guest.
