About Me

I guess it's time to update my profile a bit. It's been a while and so much has changed. For one, I have much more time on my hands these days. School is finally over, yay! Now, I'm just looking forward to the birth of my son. This is by far the most exciting adventure of my life. It still blows my mind that we've created a life.

I'm trying to find the words to describe myself, but this whole experience seems to change much of who I am on a daily basis. I'm not quite so neurotic anymore and I've learned how to calm down and just go with the flow. I treasure my friends and family and truly appreciate finally having the time to spend with them.

Baby Items

So I've been shopping around for things we'll need for the baby and I came across some questionable items. Some are funny, some I just don't get, and some are just plain strange. First item: baby wip...

Please Explain the Term Rebate?

Ok, so maybe I've been hiding under a rock the past few weeks because I just now looked into the details of this so-called "Stimulus Package" that's been all over the news. I'm so glad I was sitting d...

Belly Rubbing

Why do some people feel compelled to rub someone else's belly just because it's a pregnant belly? I don't mind so much when it's someone I know well, but I've had people I've barely spoken to just hel...

Relentless Kicking

I think I'm carrying a little kickboxer. This kid does not stop kicking, ever! Ok, I know I should be thrilled to feel him moving all the time. I was ecstatic when I first started to feel flutterings ...

Coke Rant

Why do they sell Coke in 2 liter bottles when it goes flat before the whole bottle is gone? I've noticed that no matter how quickly we drink a bottle of Coke, it always goes flat just when it's down t...

Birthday Blues

My 29th birthday is just days away and all this free time I have lately is getting to me. Sometimes I think I keep myself insanely busy so that I won't have time to evaluate my life. This is my last b...

Tinkering

What is it with men and tinkering? Whether it's with cars, computers, appliances, or electronics, they always love to tinker. Ok, so sometimes the results are useful, but for the most part, I think it...
