* I ran out of fancy flavored coffee creamer this week and had to resort to using Gerald’s sugar free hazelnut creamer. This has lead me to the realization that I’m only drinking coffee as a vehicle for the creamer. And caffeine. But mostly creamer. This sugar free business? LAME. * I’ve started doing a [...]

* Sam has finally gotten his days and nights straight. He’s sleeping three to four hours at night, which is AWESOME compared to the hour and a half I was getting. * I’m only just mailing Father’s Day cards today. I’m guessing they won’t be there on time. * I’ve developed a terrible habit: Eating [...]

* I made it to 34 weeks! Hallelujah! I have an appointment with my OB on Monday and I fully expect to be released from bed rest. I’m already allowed to stop taking the anti-contraction meds on Sunday. I guess this means we’ll officially on baby watch. I’ve already told my dad to be waiting [...]

* I got fired today via a FedEx delivery. I’m not terribly surprised at the termination, just the way it was handled. I gave my company my doctor’s note saying that I was on bed rest, but that could work from home. They said I could do that or use my short-term disability. I chose [...]

I took Swistle’s advice and got some Olay products for Teh Wrinkles. I got the Regenerist Regenerating Cream Cleanser, and the Target “compare to Olay” versions of the night cream and the day serum. It’s been a little over a week and I’m already noticing a huge difference in my skin. It seems to drink [...]

*May not actually be fun. * My first job interview today went really well. The interviewer loved me and told me so. They’re going to do the standard background check (GULP!) and then call me to schedule the second interview. The hours are perfect, the job is ideally suited to my skills and the dress [...]

* 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 [...]

* Did I tell you that we canceled our DirecTV and TiVo subscriptions? We were paying over $120 a month and hardly ever watched TV. We canceled it last month and now I’m watching more TV than ever. We’re using Hulu and Netflix Instant Watch. It’s costing us less than 1/4 of what we used [...]

* I absolutely loathe wintergreen. Just the smell makes me sick. You’d be surprised how many toothpastes are wintergreen instead of mint. To be absolutely sure that I don’t accidentally purchase vomit-inducing wintergreen, I buy crazy toothpastes. The most recent is children’s strawberry with extra fluoride. It tastes like ass, but at least it doesn’t [...]
