sethrakBeen a while since I posted. This will probably be a haphazard rambling of scattered thoughts, not one of my epic-length posts.
Thursday we watched our recording of this week's new South Park episode. The one where Matt and Trey kill off Chef in response to Issac Hayes' decision to quit the show because they dared mock Scientology.
All I can say is, wow. Just, wow.
Remind me to never ever piss off Stone and Parker. Ever.
Baby Doscher is still playing merry havoc with my digestive tract. Thanks kid. ::sticks her tongue out at the contents of her uterus:: In addition to making it hard for me to eat, you just had to go and be different, didn't you? This isn't nausea, it's hardcore indigestion, along with intestinal pains reminiscent of diarrhea and constipation - at the same damn time. Nausea at least would get me understanding and sympathy from people; it's normal for women in their first trimester to be nauseous. But this? Blank looks and an utter lack of useful advice, from your daddy to my mother (how she conveys a blank look over the phone is a mystery, but she's perfected it) on down to those of my co-workers who've been previously pregnant.
No wonder I'm not showing yet. ::sigh:: I just hope baby Doscher's effect on my nutrition isn't stunting his growth.
Dav went to base this morning for a study group; he's taking evening classes twice a week. While he was gone, I indulged in a marathon of The Learning Channel and HGTV's home decorating and organizational programming. :D Inspired by this, right now I'm cruising the web looking for things for the house.
I stumbled across Bed Bath & Beyond's modest slection of matching appliance covers. ::slight eyebrow raise:: What, are these meant for the consumer demographic that also thinks uniting a plastic doll head and a couple square feet of brightly colored crochetwork are the perfect way to conceal extra toilet paper in the guest bathroom?
Seriously. Appliance covers? Edna Mode would have heart palpitations over the lack of style these things exude.
Need to find some decent hampers somewhere. The current wicker hamper has seen better days. Unfortunately, the only hampers K-Mart currently sells are a woven rope hamper that's too small for our purposes, and these cheap looking collapsible mesh things that our cats would shred in seconds. BB&Y also seems to only have the mesh things in stock.
E-amiled my favorite little brother, currently stationed in England, about our good news. As I thought, Mom hadn't told him. He's all excited about becoming an uncle. :D He seems to be doing well. He's plotting getting a passport so he and his buddies can take a few days of leave to ride the train and terrorize the local frauleins and mademoiselles. ^_^;
That's it for now I guess.
Edit: The Container Store's website has attractive, sturdy-looking hampers - in the 99$ range. O_o I don't think so, cupcake.
Can't we produce something sturdy *and* affordable America? Please? The rich aren't the only ones who need something well-made. :p
Spastic pregnant woman edit: Dusted off my bookmark to the University of Maryland Medical Center's website. Their Shockwave tool is a lovely thing. I estimate I'm at week 13, so I feel a little bit better. I probably won't be showing for another four weeks. Still a bit worried about the little one possibly being malnourished, though. ::sigh:: Eating meat, and eating anything in the evening, seems to cause the worst symptoms. Unfortunately, my work schedule prevents me from eating lots of small meals all day to make up for this. Snacking on peanuts has so far been a good way to sneak protein in.
I really can't wait til April 24th. Maybe the nutritionist can offer some good advice.
