anyone in? I mean, besides Lump, Sarah, and Jill of course.

I can probably, maybe if fate doesn’t kick us in the face anymore between now & then, plan on something after Harper’s birthday in October. After the 4th, before the 31st. I’ll probably have the mister with me, especially since I’ll be bringing Harper and he’s afraid ya’ll will kill us and wear us like last seasons Gucci. 

thoughts?

I’m so jealous. I NEED to tackle hug you and I WANNA tackle hug lump. Boo.

so, for the last week straight, dizzy is my new enemy. i think it’s been just as bad as the morning sickness (which lasted what felt like an eternity, but i know i got off relatively easy). i am okay when i get up, i have some yogurt or a granola bar, and then i take a bus- which is usually okay. once i get to about halfway through my train ride, i’m really dizzy- like, sweating profusely on the verge of throwing up but don’t, dizzy. anyone else experience this? i have read about it online and it’s not uncommon and it says it’s not something to get nervous over unless you start passing out. i’m seeing my doctor on wednesday but my better half wants me to call in today and talk to someone. it is definitely at it’s worse this morning. blech. it wouldn’t be so bad if i could stay in bed, but this lady is setting a personal record and hasn’t called in sick since i got the little blue line- gotta save those days up for mat leave, of course. but, i was definitely on the verge of turning around and going home this morning…anyone else experience this during their knocked-up-ed-ness?

You know you’re a new yorker when you watch your train pull away from the top of the stairs, see that you have to wait five minutes for the next train, and get hulk mad.

So, I wear a uniform at work. Yay, she says unenthusiastically. Anyway, they hand me new uniforms last Friday and I just laughed. How long are these suckers gonna fit?? Well, over the weekend, the belly has made itself known, and yesterday, I almost died from the pressure of my zipped work pants. Today- thank god for the genius who invented bellabands. Ahhhhhhh, sweet relief!
