“(woo hoo)
I’M ON PINS AND ON NEEDLES!
(woo hoo)”
– Thank you, Blur, and 1998, for reminding me that Project Runnway premieres tonight (even though I still miss it being on Bravo)!
I’m not even exagerating:
My boobs broke/snapped/obliterated the underwires of TWO bras this week.
And we’re talking $80 - $100 bras.
That were already size 36-G-ish.
Yeah.
Yuck.
Yet another glorious pregnancy thing that nobody warned me about -
Along with constipation.
on IVF
I just wanted to point out, in response the the articles on abortion after IVF in the New York Times and also in The Daily Beast, the following:
The suggestion from Dr. Josephine Johnston that “these mothers owe it to their team to give the decision to have a baby serious thought beforehand.” because “Women who go through fertility treatment have brought into the process...
on a Monday night
After dinner, after cleaning up, after settling in, me with my laptop, and P with a project on his laptop,
On my way to let Marley out,
My husband reached out to me and said, “You’re so cute.”
I knew he was referring to my new “bump,” to our babies.
We danced a little, in the living room, to no music,
And he reminded me of the beginning of this year, and how,...
on patience
One of the advisors I work with/for has a tendency to ask the same question over and over, trying to get me to give him the answer he wants instead of the actual answer. I’m guessing his prior assistants have not caught onto his attempts to confuse them into agreement.
In the beginning, I pleasantly answered and reanswered, and considered it a workout for my patience.

on herrr
Even though my haircut is super grown out,
And resembles “The Rachel” more than a little bit, more than I’m proud of,
And even though I’ll fess up to the fact that it’s unwashed today (regardless of Oscar Blandi and his yummy-smelling magic hair power trying to convince me that it’s been “dry shampooed”),
My herrr is looking GOOD today. Mama is...

on vacationing whilst ballooning
Tomorrow will be my first day back to work after 10 days in northern Wisconsin with my family.
Since I’ve been accumulating a vacation wardrobe over the last couple of months but (obviously) waited to pack until the night before we left, I hadn’t considered my swimsuit situation, which was a necessary evil when traveling with my skinny little sister and my brother’s...
