    The other night I came out of the bathroom and had the following conversation with my husband. “You know, one of the few times I feel comfortable anymore is when I’m sitting on the toilet.” “Oh, really?” “Sometimes I just continue to sit there and do nothing.” “You might not want to do that for…

    This post was updated on Thursday, August 14, 2008 I rejoined Maxim last month. I did a monthly unlimited because their hours and proximity can’t be beat. I figured people change, can’t businesses as well? I was so happy to find that things have changed DRASTICALLY for the better. Everything works! The staff is amazingly…

    Murray eats a lot of food. He prefers Merrick because it’s wet and gooey and comes in flavors with names like California Roll, Grammys’ Pot Pie and Thanksgiving Day Dinner. He eats really fast. He eats so fast, when he’s finished eating his face is usually covered in wet cat food. Murray eats dry food…

    I went ahead and had Tobyjoe take some belly shots. Here is my fantastically massive belly at 30 weeks. Here is my belly at 23 weeks. And finally here it is at 15 weeks, 4 days. (Back then, even the days mattered. Now I seriously can’t even remember what week I am let alone how…

    On Tuesday the FDA approved a birth control pill that will suppress monthly bleeding indefinitely. I don’t understand why this is a medical breakthrough. What is wrong with having one’s period? I can’t imagine why women would want to take a pill like Lybrel. Someone please explain this to me. I said to Tobyjoe last…

    To all those people who own houses: How did you do it? How were you able to buy your first one? (If you wish to remain anonymous, I am OK with that. Use a fake name if you leave a comment.) The house you see above is for sale in our neighborhood. It was listed…

    Murray has ringworm, which was the catalyst that started The Great Cleanse of 2007. (I know some of you may be wondering if this whole ringworm thing is OK for me since I’m pregnant. I have spoken to my doctor about it. Ringworm is harmless for me and the unborn baby.) After Toby dunked the…

    I had my 30-week checkup yesterday. Everything seems to be going just fine. We went over my bloodwork and all of that is right on track. Even my weight gain is fine. Chemically, I am doing well. I’m crossing my fingers that the next 8 to 10 weeks bring me much of the same where…

    If there’s one thing I can say about myself it’s this: I am fiercely loyal. I have my weaknesses, for sure. I’m terrible at saying goodbye. I am terrible when it comes to emergencies. I don’t like to attend parties, large social outings, or public events. And I can be pretty lazy as well. If…

    I’ve been having a rough time lately. Mentally. Physically, things are wearing down a bit as well, but I can handle that sort of thing. I have been feeling a bit frustrated by the sheer lack of control I have over everything taking place around me. And it’s an exhausting state to be in while…
