Cupcakes
I think I have made the decision that I am going to buy a piping bag set, new muffin tins and I am going to start making every kind of cupcake that shows up on Tumblr. I think I will immediately become the most popular person in my circle of friends. And I may gain 80lbs in this pregnancy.
OMG
If I am so lucky to have all the ingredients at home for this chewy brownie bundt cake at www.howsweeteats.com then it will be in my belly after dinner.
Oh poo, I just realized I don’t have a bundt cake pan :( I better ask the neighbors!
Oh NC weather
I was super excited to have a beautiful Sunday where I could wear my rainbows and show off my freshly done pedicure, but I am really sad that today I’m all covered up with my space heater aiming at my feet this morning. Spring time, please come and stay for a bit!
Bowling
I probably have not gone bowling sober since my hs senior year extravaganza…. Until now…I usually don’t get into the zone until the second pitcher of beer…this should be interesting.
Full to the Brim
To start this out, one of the only symptoms of my pregnancy that I actually like is that I some how have the ability to follow good portion control. Whether I am just not feeling what I am eating or even if I really like it, I don’t feel the need to eat it all at one sitting and feel terrible. Well, I’m saddened to say that I have stuffed my face at two different lunches this week.

Oh and by the way, for some reason my Tumblr spell check is not working today, so sorry for my inability to spell. I live by spell check.
Excited and Nervous at the same time
So after much debate with myself I made the decision this past Sunday that I wanted to do the First Trimester genetic screening. For those of you who are not familiar with this and plan on having children, it is an utrasound and blood test that is done between weeks 12-14 to test for Down Syndrome and other chromosonal disorders that could cause issues and even death for your baby. A lot of...
Thursday Night TV = One Happy Girl
When the pleasures of alcohol are taken away from you, one must find a vice to replace the joy it gave you, for me it’s TV (even better DVRed TV).
So my Thursday night line up tonight will be;
-Vampire Diaries (hells yes!) -The Big Bang Theory (I always miss this, but love it!) -The Office -Jersey Shore -Real Housewives of BH Reunion
I hope the Husband doesn’t want to talk to me...
WatchThis is so rediculous. These parents should be tranqulized and put in a seminar about how they shouldn’t try to live their dreams through their kids. What is our world coming to?
State of the union
So John boehner was pretty entertaining…you can really tell how much love he has for Obama.
Also can we talk about the fact that most of the people in that room are elderly men which I’m surprised one of them didn’t break a hip when standing and sitting so many times. Ok Obama, you want change, let’s get some term limits up in there.
I am Boycotting Winter
This means I am refusing to purchase anymore long pants, boots, sweaters or heavy jackets. I’m so over it that I can’t stand to spend another cent on clothes to help support it. Only 54 days left till the first day of spring and you can bet I will be counting down the days eagerly. I’m just hoping good old NC comes through with some early spring weather in February.
Bored out of my brain
I am so bored and I don’t feel like doing shit. I can’t sit still, but have no desire to get up and file. 4:30 please hurry the eff up!
Lunch
Since I settled for the only thing decent looking in our office kitchen, which was a 250 calorie Healthy Choice pasta thing, I am supplementing my much needed calories with a fundraiser chocolate bar. yummmmm
Superdeduperdey
Yes I know that is not a word, but I needed to show that I was as excited as a 5 year old on Christmas morning. Why you ask, because I have 2 back to back beach weekends planned for May! I may be the size of small whale by then, but I’m going to be one happy ass beached whale!
Effing Hold
It’s really fucking hard to get any work done when you are put on hold for fucking 20 minutes. I need to make another phone call and leave my desk to finish what I’m doing while on hold. Fuck today!
Can you tell I’m enjoying the word fuck today?
New favorite book
Water for Elephants has now bumped The Help out of it’s number 1 stop on my most favorite books list. I’m obsessed and can’t wait to see the movie.
MLK Day
So I had the option to work today, which I know most would have opted to not, but since I hadn’t left my house for most of the weekend I figured that I needed a reason to get up and do something. I’ve pretty much decided I’m going to peace out of here real soon, but I can’t think of anything productive to do. I have no need to shop, no errands to run, no where I even feel...
OMG
I feel like the most worthless lazy person in the world. Everyone keeps saying that i need to take advantage of the need to rest, but this is not me on the weekends. The end of this trimester can’t come quick enough. Nine days and counting (crossing my fingers the second will pump me full of energy!)
p.s. I do love that I am almost halfway through Water for Elephants, awesome book!
Dear Mr. I have an entitlement complex,
First, let me tell you that the world does not revolve around you. It may be a suprise, but it’s the truth, deal with it. Second, when you get all red in the face and start yelling and making demands, you sound and look like a 5 year who didn’t get the candy bar he wanted, take a second and picture that.
I don’t care that you own your own company, that makes you no better...
I have an announcement....
I’ve been holding off making this announcement due shear fright that if I talk about it, something bad will happen. But I think we are far enough along and everything looks good enough to go ahead and tell all that Mr. Stork will be paying husband and I a visit come late July / early August. I have two more weeks until I am safely in the second trimester so positive thoughts and prayers...
SNOW DAY SNOW DAY SNOW DAY!
Me too!
icorianne asked: Great! I will put you down! What kind of books do you like? Do you have any idea what book you would suggest for your pick? :)
Pops Update
So Pops had his second CT scan on Wednesday and he met with his doctor today for the results. He sent me the report, but I don’t understand most of the words on it. But I have sent it to my friend the PA to help decipher the medical jargon. The gist of it is, nothing has gotten larger, but not much has gotten smaller. So, Ok news. He has to switch his chemo to some other drug and will...
Fact #85
theoppositesideofthesea:
I am right-handed, but I play pool left handed.
ME TOO! I also cut my meat the opposite way too. My husband doesn’t understand either.
Pops
Well my pops (this would be my dad) is having his post Chemo CT scan today. Any prayers out there in Tumblr world are greatly appreciated. He goes Friday to get the results and see how well the 6 rounds of Chemo did. Fingers and Toes crossed!
It's really hard....
to get any work done when i’m google chatting all day. I guess I need to give up work.
yummmmm cupcakes
That was meant to sound like homer simpson drulling over donuts, but I’m sure it was all in my head. Anywho, that is how i feel about the idea of diving into a super delicious cupcake like the ones below, but I won’t descriminate, I just really want a damn cupcake. If only I could leave work right now and go get one… Since I can’t, I will sit here and dream about said...
Sunday please make up for Saturday
So after spending the last 20 out of 24 hours in bed, I am finally feeling semi normal…just in time to go back to sleep…thanks body. I have no idea what was wrong, but I bet it’s that I’ve felt way to good over the last two months and I’m body wanted to give me a good wake up call for what I will be in for in 2011.
I’m very sad that I missed spending the day...
