About Me

Where to start? I'm 25 years old, happily married, and in the process of 'redefining' myself. I went to MSU for Human Bio, didn't do much with that, worked in retail for a couple years, and then decided that a career in nursing seems like a good idea for my future...so I'm going about getting that accomplished.
Mike and I discovered that we are going to be parents earlier this year, with a due date of Nov. 11th. Our son, Max Michael, was somewhat of a surprise to us, but a welcome one. Now we're just waiting for him to FINALLY get here!
What about me...I love my family and friends and, over the years, have come to realize that friends don't always stay friends and your family isn't as bad as you thought they were growing up. I love shopping, but hate spending money and the mall. High heels are my favorite...for about ten minutes. I'm vain about my hair, but am not particularly interested in making sure it looks good. I've been told by enough people that I come across as 'uppity' to assume that I am...at least until you get to know me. I have a low tolerance for high-maintenance, wishy-washy people. Unfortunately, I also have a highly expressive face...so people usually know when I'm annoyed by them.

My Interests

My Mister.
My son.
Sleeping.
Eating.
Having FUN.
Being the Best.
Working out when the mood strikes me...which is rarely.
Texting. I love texting!
Being ridiculous.
Reading.
Laying out.
The Spartans!
Baby animals...especially giraffes. I'm impressed that they fall that far and don't break their necks...plus, giraffes can lick their own ears!

I'd like to meet:

people who like fun. the little guy inside me...but that's going to be a while.

Music:

all.

Movies:

Cruel Intentions
Star Wars (all of them!)

300 (because nobody made a movie about a wolverine!)

Lady and the Tramp
My Fair Lady
Funny Face
Bad Boys I and II
That one with your mom.
I love movies and will watch just about anything...for the first fifteen minutes. If nothing happens in those fifteen minutes, I'm bored and will walk away.

Television:

Grey's Anatomy
Cartoons
The Food Network (especially Rachel Ray and Alton Brown!)
Jon and Kate plus 8!

Books:

Harry Potter
Pride and Prejudice
Tacky romance novels...they're like brain crack!

Heroes:

People who know what they want.

37 weeks...thank god!

If Max were to arrive right now...he would be full-term and awesome. Maybe a little covered in vernix, but all-in-all healthy. Sadly, while I am dilating and effacing and all those other good words, I...

Woke up this morning and thought to Max that today would be a great day for a birth. Soon after, received text from hubby saying the same thing. Sadly, son has not gotten the memo and is quietly incub...

There are pictures, but I'm way to lazy to put them here. I have the opposite of the nesting instinct. Is that possible? I'm sure it is, since it is happening to me.Sometimes Max likes to cuddle up in...

24 weeks, 16 (give or take) to go!

We're almost done...ish. 16 weeks will be like nothing. At least it better be. Or else I'm handing this kid an early eviction notice. Not really, but I still might try all the home remedies for pregna...
