Fun Fact Friday

October 9th, 2009

* Now that I’m finally feeling better, Gerald has come down with the Upper Respiratory Infection from Hell. I’m pretty sure it’s much worse being the non-sick spouse than the sick one. And Gerald’s not even a Giant Baby like most men are when they’re sick. He does, however, get SUPER pissy.

* I’m pretty sure my boobs have been possessed by some sort of giant, blue-veined demon. Last night I rolled over onto my stomach and holy hell! The Pain!

* I’m looking for a new job. A full-time office job. We’ve decided to just bite the bullet and wipe out as much debt/accrue as much savings as possible before Baby Numero Dos gets here. I’ve applied for eleventy-seven jobs in the last two weeks and so far I’ve heard back from approximately 0% of them. I’m starting to get a little paranoid and a lot depressed.

* I was planning on taking Maddie out to do something fun today (either the zoo or the State Fair) but it’s pouring. So, I’m stuck here with a stir-crazy kid and a pissy sick husband. SCORE!

* To combat my aversion to getting bigger as a my pregnancy progresses, I’ve started browsing maternity clothes online. It’s totally helping, too. I love that I can wear “normal” sized maternity clothes this time around and I’m having fun planning outfits for my imaginary new job.

    Good luck job hunting. It is just an awful time for this all over. A. has had two interviews out of about 30 applications. Bleh.

    Job hunting is the WORST. My husband just got a call back from a job he applied for in April. Uh, fortunately for us he’s already been employed elsewhere. Good luck with your search.

    Here’s hoping you don’t have to work around the food forever and I am glad that you found something to be excited about with the growing belly. Maternity clothes are so much cuter than they were when I was having kids over 11 years ago.

    P.S. I Hope Gerald is feeling better soon
