Today I FINALLY got to hang out with the glorious miss Wendy and her fabulous kiddo. It was splendiferous and marvelous and lots of other ouses that seem to spring into my vocabulary after spending time with her–kind of the way I lapse into LolCat speak after a visit with my fabulous sister in law [...]
It seems to be a trending topic this week in the blogosphere but…I think I have PMS.
All of the symptoms are there: the overly tired, the overly spacey, the easily annoyed at nothing, the wanting to curl up and not move for a few days. All of the symptoms I used to have are back.
I [...]
Today I learned that I can fit into my skinniest jeans again. Normally this is the cause for rejoicing but today it just made me sad. I’d be in my 15th week right now–just starting to do the “wide release” good news. I know this because even though I haven’t been really keeping track of [...]
What a week, what a week.
I worked all week and now we have friends up from southern Oregon visiting (they went to Ikea for the day, I decided to stay home and do some work. Aren’t I super responsible?) so I haven’t had a lot of time for fun or posting or blog reading. I [...]
Today Will and I went grocery shopping for the first time since…November? The end of October? I can’t remember.
Okay–we’ve gone to the grocery store plenty of times since then, but only for a basket full of quick stop items. We’d get some quick frozen foods or order pizza or go get stuff at a drive [...]
While I have spent all day lying on the couch watching television and movies (yay On Demand) I’d be lying if I said that I wasn’t kind of wanting to go find a coffee shop to sit in and typeity type away at something.
Maybe Tuesday or Wednesday I’ll take this little netbook and do that. [...]
It’s Saturday afternoon and I’m not sure what to do with myself. Our apartment is cleaned. The laundry doesn’t need to be done until Monday. I have a batch of cookies in the oven baking as a treat for Will when he gets home from work. The rest of my weekend, so far, is totally [...]
This is the second time in a week that I have spent most of the day in downtown Portland.
The first time was on Wednesday. The basic plan was that, while he was in class, I would have a long and leisurely afternoon at the library. I had some books on hold that I wanted to [...]
Every year I completely forget about de-lurking day but I figured that this year I’d give it a shot. And then I realized that the post on the top of my page is not exactly fun to read (though I’m glad I posted it) so I thought I would write something shorter and easier to [...]
For the longest time, I didn’t think I wanted kids.
When I was growing up all of that traditional stuff—settling down, getting married, procreation—none of it was really my thing. Then I met Will. And then one day, my biological clock went off with a giant clashing clanging gong and I knew. I knew I wanted [...]
