So, not only did the guy from FSU’s department of Environmental Health and Saftey – THE place to go if you are an employee with an uncomfortable working condition – not reply to my emails, but the reported “steam outage” that was supposed to be fixed by today has not been. SO, it is still 60 degrees in my office and I am boiling with the rage of a thousand angry Godzillas, ready to trample a city, or at least their offices in Carothers Hall. You here Mr. K? I’m comin’ for ya. You won’t know when; ‘ Better watch your back, even in the shower, eatin’ at picnics…’  Your ass is mine.

Ok, end of Monday morning after night of bad sleep rage. The weekend was relatively non-eventful. We went around to baby stores on Saturday but we really didn’t find anything all that great. Finding the perfect crib is starting to be the unaccomplishable task. The problem: all the styles we like don’t come in white. White cribs tend to be cheaper- looking. Well, they will go with our decor and I know they have to exist somewhere. I fear that we will end up purchasing from the internet, as much as we wanted to be able to touch the model beforehand.

On Sunday, Ash started to feel sick. There’s nothing like a whiny husband on the verge of illness to make a pregnant woman in the early stages of nesting get a ton of stuff done. I cleaned and grocery shopped and made other trips for Dayquil and fruit. When I finally collapsed, I slept like the dead – for two hours. Then I awoke with my entire right side numb and cramping. Get up, pee, switch sides. Wake up one hour later, entire left side numb and legs cramping. Left side is supposed to alleviate this problem. Wake up and shift sides again, only to fall asleep propped on my back/side and wake up two hours later, cramping in my thighs. When the alarm went off, I felt like I’d been run down by a steam-roller – tired, headachey, looming pains from the leg cramps, and an overall sense of shittiness. Welcome to week 21 of pregnancy!

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go outside and defrost my little icicle fingers.
