Mar. 26th, 2007 09:16 pmM came in this morning to suggest that I go in to work a few hours late because I'd been tossing and turning all night long. I dragged myself out of bed anyway and headed to work. I looked in the mirror and complained about how I looked like crap, but the boyo assured me that I looked perfectly fine, perhaps a little tired. And then I met my former boss/current boss-on-paper (it's complicated) as I was walking inside, and he looks over and laughs at me. "You look miserable!" he said. Oh, well. It was sweet of M to try lying to me. We're going to change our bed around a bit tonight and hope that I can get a little more sleep. For one thing, we're bringing the fan upstairs, since I am too hot, and taking some covers off the bed. That makes me sad because I love curling up under the covers. It probably makes M happy because he has just tolerated my heavy bedding needs previously.
I received the rest of my diapers today and I have my prefolds in the washer. They need washed/dried a bunch of times before they're absorbent (a quality I very much want in a diaper!) so I guess that will be a week-long project. I intended to boil them (to decrease the number of washings) but I lost my patience. I somehow managed to put every single fun diaper in the shipment that I received last, so I was pretty excited to open up the bag. You know how cute they are? They are so cute that I hold them up and M goes "AWWW!" You know it's extreme cuteness when a man squeals in delight at a diaper.
My ankles have been swollen for a week or two now, and I can't stop looking at them in morbid fascination. I have never, ever had fat legs. I actually have shapely calves that do not exactly fit the rest of my body. I would say that it is too bad M is not a leg man except that the asset he is most interested in is supplied in even more abundance. I don't know if I can blame this on pregnancy but I had a loosening of the tongue this weekend and made several very inappropriate comments to my mom and my cousin regarding quite racy topics. That wouldn't have been too surprising had M not been sitting right there blushing like a little girl. Must work on restraint on these matters.
I'd like to talk about non-pregnancy items, too, but it's pretty hard to think of much else than the fact that I am incubating a small person at this stage, since she seems to enjoy reminding me at every opportunity. Maybe someday soon I will think of something unrelated to gestation. Or not. In any case, one of my parents is on the phone now talking to M (I'm guessing Dad) and I will need to answer the phone here in a minute, and then I'm off to bed, so I have to wrap this up faster than I planned. Toodles.
