since feeling is first

In January 2009 I posted this picture with the following commentary:
I am a freefaller. One of the reasons I am terrified of pregnancy. How exactly does a 6 months pregnant freefaller sleep, pray tell?
I can now answer my own question. I am only 4 1/2 months pregnant and last night it became official - sleeping on my stomach is no longer possible. Big fat sad face.

I love sleeping on my stomach too, but it’s supposed to be pretty terrible for your back. Chiropractors (from what I understand) suggest that you sleep on your back with a small pillow under your head and a pillow elevating your knees, and if you can’t do that, lay on your side with a pillow between your knees. Who knows, maybe pregnancy will give you good back habits!

notes Having a techno geek for a husband...

… was the most awesome decision I have ever made.

text Currently installing Windows 7 on my laptop!

I’m excited. If any of you out there are college students, Windows is offering a deal where you can download Windows 7 for $30. All you need is a valid .edu email. That’s what I did and it’s working.

notes What I Should Be Doing vs. What I Am Doing

I should be reading Another Roadside Attraction by Tom Robbins for my English class.

What I am doing is reading Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger because it seems like a good read for the mood I’m in.

I should be drinking water because I’m pretty sure I’m dehydrated.

What I am doing is drinking hot cocoa with whipped cream on top because it’s delicious and it makes my heart happy.

I should be folding laundry because it’s taking up all of the room on our bed.

What I am doing is tumbling.

text Time for the gym? Not really

I haven’t been to the gym for like… three days? And I won’t be able to go tomorrow. Or the next day. Or the next day. That’s six days without going, and that fucking blows. I’ve been really good about going but my schedule is crazy. I work ten hours tomorrow, eight the next day (without enough time before work to go, and I can’t go after work because I wouldn’t be able to sleep), seven the next day but I also have to go to school, so I can’t. Saturday is the first day I’ll be able to go.

I’m thinking I might try to bust out some cardio on Thursday just to do SOMETHING but I don’t have enough time for my usual hour session… unless I miss out on sleep, and that will make me a bitch for the rest of the day which nobody wants to see.

notes First night at the Bistro

I think I did all right. I’m definitely not used to being a server and I hate that essentially my only approach right now is the I-Don’t-Know-What-I’m-Doing-But-I’m-Kind-of-Cute-Right? I’m hoping it doesn’t take me long to get confident with what I’m doing because man, I hate being unsure.
