The sun is trying to kill me


My sister turns 23 today. If she had a blog, this is where I would <insert blog url here> and have you all wish her a good one. But she doesn’t because she’s a pretty private person. In fact, she won’t even answer my phone call but it IS only 10:40; she could still be sleeping.

I just took a walk because sitting at my desk has become uncomfortable. I’m not sure if it’s worse than the hellish beat down of the solar rays outside but it’s comparable… in terms of discomfort.  Blah. I must say that this pregnancy has been fairly benign until this friggen’ week. Welcome to week 35! You’ll now enjoy the side effects of sleeping on your arm until it falls asleep and falls off due to excessive numbness. Your back will hurt because your belly is dropping lower and lower, forcing its weight in an unnatural way. Because baby is so low, he’s squishing your bladder into oblivion and that is why you have to use the bathroom Every Five Minutes. And that’s not an exaggeration. You will also get all kinds of weird abdominal pains that are most liley just the muscles stretching to their very most limits, never again returning to the once tight (relatively, anyway) stomach you used to know. Do not ever hope to wear a two piece bathing suit. The belly fat and sudden stretch marks have branded you “mom in a one piece” forever. Don’t you look forward to the next 5 weeks? With joy!

I bet you could even hear my eyes rolling.

So yeah, I’m supposed to be working on my site for the online class. I really really should not put it off, just in case I were to go into labor earlier than expected. And yet, I cannot bring myself to work on it. I need some… inspiration. I know it can come from anywhere and my eyes are peeled. But alas, I just sit here and play Scrabble online.

*sigh*

Happy Tuesday, everyone.
