2 words: Spring Break.

The article mentions the Super Bowl is popular as well, which seems like a waste... it is only one night, and with the communal party atmosphere around the game, your non-sporting wife is probably going to be fine with you watching, if not at the party herself.
First weekend of March Madness seems to make much more sense.... 2-4 days of recovery where you'll just want to sit and rest anyway. I'm going to have to remember that down the road.

If you're gonna spend a few days riding shotgun on a bag of frozen peas, then you might as well do it when there's something good on.

Meh, I'm not all that into basketball, so I had mine during the beginning of the NFL pre-season. That way once the regular season started enough time would have gone by to allow gettin' back to gettin' busy.
After all, even once you recover you gotta allow time for the swimmers to clear out lest an 'accident' happen.

This. Actually, this is a wonderful opportunity for negotiations.

For example, you can ask your wife to assist in "clearing out the pipes" (as the doctors would like you to do, thirty times before going for the lab test) whilst wearing that special outfit, and the sparkly red lipstick... After all, you are doing this for her, and for the marriage.

After 4 kids, I signed up for Fark 9 years ago, right after I got snipped. Thus my handle ;-)

Hmm.. I had mine in the morning, and was good to go (except for sex) that evening. As long as I didn't do anything as stupid as sit on them, there weren't any issues.
The sutures were annoying and pokey, but they fell off within a week.

This isn't news -- I'm getting mine done tomorrow, and had it scheduled 4 months out -- nothing like 3 days of sitting on the couch with little-to-no movement while eating snack food and watching basketball.

Scheduled mine for early May, then watched the first episode of the second season of Californication, where the lead character gets the operation.
I know its fiction and overdramatized and all, but still... youch. Also, I lol'd. Nervously.

Info said it would feel like a "bad bee sting." Put two and two together as to where the "bad be sting" is going to be located, and its not difficult to figure out that it is going to hurt like an sob.
Still, one kick in the balls beats the hell out of the thought of having to go through another 9-10 months of pregnancy, 2-4 years of diapers, getting thrown up on, 12 years of school, college, etc, etc...
2 is enough. Love my kids, but that's farking it.

actually, the needles didn't hurt so much as the second pain injection -- the rush of fluid hurt like f*ck (but only briefly)
so yes, get it done. the worst part is laying half-naked on a table in front of strangers.

I watched the actual thing on the old show "The Operation". It was amazing, they made a tiny little slit, went in, snip snip, and out again. Maybe a few stitches, tops. If I'd been waiting to have one I'd have felt great about it.
Ironically... I think I may have the opposite problem :P Wish they could snip snip for that.

That actually is reassuring, so thanks (no sarcasm for a change.)
I'll gladly let a roomfull of doctors see my junk if it means I can be firing blanks within a couple of months. Hell, the doc at the first appointment had to do "the prostate test", and my thinking was still, if a finger up my arse means no more rugrats, then please, invite some friends, do what you gotta do. I've been through much, much worse.

yeah, it's really not that bad. and no prostate test, either.
kaiser permanente only required me to go to some little "class" that consisted of an old video from the 70s or 80s and some Q&A with a doctor.
i was "functional" within 3 days, and farking within a week.

Mine didn't even require that.
"You're 27. You and your wife are both sure you don't want kids?"
"Yes."
"Really sure? You can't reverse this with any reliability."
"Yes."
"Okay, sign here."
Got a hematoma the size of a golf ball on one side, finally went away with chelation therapy. Ruled clear after a month, not had a problem since.
As for prostate trouble as someone mentioned, have a cite for that? The anatomy says you're wrong- everything the prostate makes still is ejaculated, there are no data suggesting prostate trouble.

Mine is next Friday. I've already talked myself out of it a thousand times. I jokingly asked the Dr if he'd give me a general. He said it goes much faster if he has his whole staff in the room with us. It's then I realized I don't feel like laughing about it.

Thanks, Farkers, I'm looking forward to getting fixed. Not only is it no more kids, but a weekend of pure, unadulterated sympathy from the old lady.
I didn't see anything about "no beer allowed" for the next couple days. Time to stock up.

Drinking can thin the blood. Talk to your doctor before drinking too much. You know, be careful. You don't want to bleed down there more than needed.
