Wanna know the best thing about being pregnant?

BIGGER BOOBS!!!

And a birthday shopping spree to Victoria’s Secret – sweet!

UPDATED TO ADD:
If you’re offended because you live in Ireland and your daughter or your grandmother has one of these names and you think it’s a lovely name and don’t understand how anyone could be so ignorant as to put it on a bad names list, then you are not the target audience of this blog and this post was not intended for you (and what are you even DOING here, anyway???).  The context of these posts are that these are really bad names to give a kid growing up in the US because of the obvious fact that he/she is going to spend his/her entire life listening to people mangle his/her name.  So please stop sending me hateful emails and comments and go be all offended somewhere else where you actually belong.  Thank you.

I haven’t been hungry in 3 days. I suppose it stems from the fact that things are kind of shifting around down there and maybe Mr. Tummy just doesn’t have as much room to expand, but quite frankly – especially for someone who looks forward to food as one of the highlights of the day – it just sucks.

Ordinarily this would not really be a problem except that this weekend was my birthday, which means all weekend people are shoving delicious food and desserts toward me in large quantities. And I have guilt and resentment toward my stomach for not being able to…stomach it.

Saturday was lunch at Red Robin and dinner at the aunt & uncle’s, where the course de jour was lots of ribs and large portions of other yummy edibles. And mint-chocolate-chip ice cream cake.

Sunday was dinner at The Melting Pot. Enough said. So I spent most of the weekend miserably uncomfortable and unable to do anything about it except eat more because, aside from the guilt, if I don’t eat regularly my blood sugar goes down and then I get queasy (which I believe is what happend this morning and consequently why I was 2 hours late to work).

Getting some extra rest this morning has helped me with the fatigue issue, which also played a part this weekend. I think I probably take about 1.5-2 hours of naps per day now, which is unusual even for me. All in all, I’m really looking forward to getting past this first trimester thing.

Call up our office and ask how many of our products are floating around in Texas. When I tell you there’s really no way to get an accurate figure on that, tell me you weren’t born yesterday.

First of all, I could care less when you were born. Second, I have neither the inclination nor imagination to make up answers to distributor questions just to see how naive you are. To assume that I’m deliberately trying to mislead you is insulting and inappropriate.

Then, respond to my silence by telling me you’re a “smart ass” as though it’s some kind of ailment that excuses rude behavior and THE COMPLETE LACK OF DISCERNMENT BETWEEN “WITTY” AND “OFFENSIVE.” That’s not a smart-ass. That’s just an ass.

And it’s not an apology when you’re proud of it.

I dreamed last night that my husband’s family gave me a horse for my birthday. And I couldn’t ride it because I didn’t have a saddle.

Duh.
