Gold medal in whatever!

I can tell I’m rounding the corner into the second trimester because I’m having fewer Nausea Days and far more Eat My Weight In Carbohydrates days. It’s great to be back in fresh fruits and a reasonable amount of vegetables, though. And I will never complain that my sense of smell is receding to normal, […]

Healthy first trimester recipes

Dinner:

Frozen broccoli lasagna, microwaved for three minutes and then stirred. And then dropped upside down on the floor. Add giant racking sobs. Sit on floor next to ill-fated dinner for two minutes,  then deposit sulkily in trash
Open ridiculous package of bagel dogs bought on impulse during Week Eight. Microwave for 54 seconds; then eat on […]

Excuses, updates, whatever

I think about writing, I really do, but when I sit down to do it (after my husband comes home, so I can use his laptop) (because mine is still broken) it just turns into two paragraphs about what I’m seeing in front of me at that very second.

So hey, here’s a Muppet video! Apropos of nothing, but it makes me laugh — my brothers and sisters are coming […]

Nine weeks, one day

Still pregnant! And boy, am I tired — of taking my pants off for perfect strangers!
Ha ha. Ha. Look, I know it’s par for the course for American prenatal care. “Drop your drawers, fill out a form, drop your drawers, pay the copay, drop your drawers, think of England”— but come on.
*shake hands* ”Hi. I’m Dr […]

Snow, Superbowl, sleeping arrangements

Lookit that! One week into Nablopomo: February, and I borked a day. Ah, well, my apologies. I was so busy cowering under 20”-plus inches of snowfall I plumb forgot to post.
But I’m posting now. I just pulled a pan of brownies out of the oven and uploaded a few snow shots to Flickr; Mackie is […]
