Limited OT, please.
Okay.......I'm getting snipped.
My GF's okay with it, but I'm kinda concerned how I break it to my little rich and cranky Grammy that the line will now end with me. I'm 40 and she still thinks any minute I'm going to get married and produce an heir. Hate to tell her but no little future Jon Boy nor Angus will ever appear in this lifetime. My sister has two children ( one boy and one girl ) but because they don't have the family surname, my Grandmother pretty much thinks they don't really count. She thinks we're all blue bloods and therefore "special" and already has big plans for my future MALE offspring. ( baby girls would be pampered but basically ignored, of course ).
Now isn't that special?
Any ideas how I can tell my Grandmother ( after the surgery, of course, as she'll try to put a stop to it if she knows ahead of time ) without endangering my life, my peace, and of course, despite my lame protestations of not wanting it, my eventual huge inheritance? I wouldn't put it past her to have me committed, pay the doctor off, or her feign a stroke or heart attack to stop me, so I prefer to tell her when it's a done deal.
Also, has anybody here had a vasectomy and could maybe give me some assurance that it's not really all that painful or dangerous and that ( big ) Sam The Sham and The Pharoahs will all still work correctly?

I wouldn't tell your grandma...then again I'm a peacemaker that doesn't like to upset anyone so... I wouldn't say anything if I were in your place.
Do you think she's more upset that you aren't married? Wondering where the grandchildren are is just a way to press the issue?

Peas? Peas? Do they have some magical gonad healing property or something? :
As for my Grandmother being more upset that I'm not married, I doubt she cares at all since my actual happiness has never been one of her priorities, just that I'm successful and don't embarrass her. I've been married once before years ago and my Grammy hated my wife and was thrilled when I finally rid myself of her. In fact, she gave my ex-wife a very large settlement herself to get my ( ex) wife to sign the divorce papers, besides the settlement I agreed to.
My GM would want the child to be legitimate, of course, so I guess marriage would have to be part of the process of her having an heir to the family name. My GF and I do plan to get married eventually, just not at the moment and kids aren't in the plans.
