Goodbye Grandpa

Today you went to Heaven and I couldn't be happier for you. I know you have been desperately waiting to be reunited with Grandma for years. Thank you for taking me in as your own. I will forever wear Grandma's ring with honor.

Uh...What Just Happened?

This whole "Back to School" thing is really cramping my style. My body is in a perpetual state of shock and I'm sick of hitting the sack at 11:30pm or later, only to wake up all bright eyed, bushy tailed, and rather ticked at 3am. For some odd reason, I feel the need to write down these random thoughts that plague my mind at 3am. In pitch darkness, I write profound things like, "fish" and "straw" on a notepad. Now, the "fish" part is understandable because I really will forget to take the fish out of the freezer unless I write it down. However, the "straw" part is just silly as I am convinced...did I mention at 3am?...that I need a straw for my morning smoothie to decrease the risk of blueberry and strawberry seeds embarassingly lodging themselves between my teeth. Really? Who does that? Alas, time marches on, my imprisonment school officially begins Monday, and things will begin to "settle" down. Until then, I will continue to tend to my wounds and battle scars each night (read: paper cuts) and just hope for the best.

Oh, and to the lady that found this site by searching "must get pregnant or go insane", I say...amen.

Ugh...

My head is spinning and it aches. I feel dizzy. My neck aches. My belly feels like it might blow at any given moment.

We can either chalk this up to nasty Clomid and the two (yes, I said two!) big follicles I currently have. Or, we can say it is a nasty case of the I Don't Want To Go Back To Work Tomorrows.

Either way, I feel like a dog.

The Bathroom Tells Me So

I don't normally find luck in a bathroom, but yesterday was a little different. I reach for the toilet paper and there, sitting upon the holder, was a nice little piece of paper. A fortune to be exact. And this is what it said...

You will have a beautiful family.
