Thinking out loud and whatnot
So I know it's been what... LJ says 6 weeks since I updated this thing?
Eh, anyhow, tomorrow (technically today, since it's after midnight now) is the Big Day. That's right, folks, due date number 1 (according to my period). The day Captain Jules is supposed to set sail from the Womb Harbor and come headed out to the New World outside.
Okay, birth/sailor metaphors aside (weird)... I WANT THIS KID OUT OF ME. And I'm almost worried that my amount of wanting said child out of me is inversely proportionate to how ready he is to come out... Sean was due January 26, didn't come out until FEBRUARY 9. I'm hoping we do not have a repeat performance by his younger brother, but somehow I get the feeling that's going to be the case.
**Le sigh** Anyhow, wish me luck.
And yes, I know about sex, nipple stimulation, primrose oil, WALKING UNTIL MY FEET FALL OFF, and of course, good ol' castor oil.
I'm saving that one for sheer desparation. And hopefully the midwife prodding me in order to check dilation is helping speed along that dilation process.
Bet you wanted to know that, huh?
Anyhow, things have settled in, for the most part, here at Nana's house. Everyone is abuzz about the baby, and I miss having a paycheck. I miss having a house of my own, but at the same time, it's nice not being the sole means of dinner and house cleaning every day. I get tired!
Went out to Alana's yesterday for some room painting/decorating, house cleaning, burger flipping, Arkham-Horror-ing good times. Very enjoyable.
It's also Kitty's birthday... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LADY! I got two of the three you told me about, and if I don't see you later today, you'll definitely get them Wed when I come over to do classwork (if I'm not having a baby that day).
Augh, well, I'm tired. I'm going to go the heck to bed. See you kids later.
