Pregnancy . . . it's a wonderful thing. A time to excitedly prepare for the baby's arrival, a time to pick the perfect name, a time to glow. Oh, and it's a time to throw up in your trash can next to your desk at work.
I don't want to puke anymore. I don't want to feel my stomach churning every day. I don't want to eat something every 2-3 hours to try to prevent puking. I want to lose weight, not gain a ridiculous number of pounds per month. I simply want to feel normal again.
Pregnancy is not for me in any way, shape or form. Having a child that genetically, physically and mentally resembles my husband and me is overrated.
After all, orphan babies all over the world await adoption. What the hell was I thinking?
a home away from home for the forlorn, destitute, curiously intelligent hopeful cynics of the world. no lazies allowed. no procrastinators either.

Hiatus
How many months does it take to get me to blog again?
Apparently the answer is four.
What can I say, crap got in the way. Life got busy. I have had a few interesting experiences in the last four months - some even worthy of documentation. Yet, I didn't take the time to put fingers to keyboard and get that info. out. Pity. I guess. Maybe not. Maybe the world is better off not knowing.
For those interested, I will give a short list. The imporant stuff, if you will.
Highlights July 26 - November 17

Highlights July 26 - November 17
- School started.
- Confirmed pregnancy.
- Celebrated 10th wedding anniversary.
- Husband had surgery (A-OK).
- Saw Weezer and Foo Fighters (excellent, worth every penny and more).
- Won title of faculty homecoming queen at school (so proud).
- Threw up a lot - pretty much every morning (seems to be subsiding).
- Ate a lot to prevent nausea (ongoing).
- Gained weight (ongoing).
- Celebrated daughter's 3rd birthday.
- Trick or treated with Harmony Bear (still trying to eat the crapload of candy).
- Got deathly ill with devil virus (not the medical name). Lost 3 days of life.
- Had a garage sale (made $145).
- Purchased iPod because it was totally necessary. 60 GB should be enough. Yes, it plays video. Want to watch?
I think that sums it up pretty well. Currently I am trying to decide if my habit of putting commentary in parentheses after each statement is cute or annoying. Not an easy decision. I will need to spend further time in contemplation. As I continue that, I think I will switch on the ol' iPod for inspiration.
