Morning!
I woke up at 5am for no good reason. lame.
I've got a exam to take this morning, a house to clean, and then my magical weekend begins. My H took off work today so we're going out for a lunch of Mongolian barbecue and then to the big home show expo that's going on. I love seeing all the new ideas for home gadgets, appliances, and such. We've been thinking of adding a fireplace so this will be a perfect opportunity to scope them out and maybe spend some tax return money.
Have a great Friday!

[QUOTE]Morning :) Good luck on your exam! Have fun at the home show. I love that kind of stuff. I have a dr appt today.. the NT scan (where they can update on chances on Downs, trisomy disorders, etc.) I'm actually a little nervous now, but H is coming with thankfully. Apparently they'll guess gender too! Other than that, I got nothin. This weekend is a big hockey weekend. :) WI plays here in MN for college hockey, and it's the last series of the season. As long as we don't get completely creamed, we should have an automatic bid to the playoffs. FINALLY.

Home shows are like porn to me. i love them so much that I disgust myself. Plus I'm all about the freebies. Yardstick, fly swatter, pens, random cleaning supplies..
Fingers crossed for a perfect scan! Although I have known a few people recently who had a less than favorable scan but still ended up with perfect little babies. So try not to worry too much. Of course you'll worry though. It's a mom thing ;)

[QUOTE]I love freebies. That's probably why I love exhibit things like that. Especially for the free pens. yup.

<div>My MIL just went to some conference thing and in addition to pens, got a free portable changer for iphone/ipod/ipad. It just connects to your device in the charger port and doesn't have any cords or anything. It's awesome and I want it!</div>
I dont have much going on today other than work, and I really dont know how exciting that will be. I missed yesterday cause I had a headache and I honestly dont think I missed much. Im really just looking to my dinner of soft boiled eggs and vegging out reading. That bastard im married to is cheating and reading three fucking books at once so I have to step it up.
H and I had a major stupid moment last night. I was swinging his headlamp as we were walking inside, and the thing broke apart. The top part and batteries went flying. So we got out the flashlight, found the batteries and top part, then spent a half hour looking for the back. Finally we gave up and set the stuff next to the band, only to discover that the back part was still attached to the band. Duh. We wasted all that time looking for something that was never even lost.
Moral of the story - never swing a headlamp. They break.
I slept like garbage last night. I always do for the first week that H is deployed; every little noise sounds like someone is breaking into the house to rape and/or kill me. I should really start wearing pajamas to bed now.
Not much going on today, just work and then I need to go grocery shopping. This weekend will be filled with cleaning, cleaning, and more cleaning (I'm actually excited about this), and hopefully getting in some quality gym time.

Steph, good luck at your NT! It's amazing, becuse they actually look like babies at that point. I had a stubborn LO and we had to go back twice, but I'm not complaining about extra u/s!
My Dr's apt yesterday went well. Derek finally got to meet the man who'll have a very good knowledge of my lady bits, and he likes him, so that's good.
Tonight, maybe buying appliances? There's a customer appreciation event at The Brick and it's hard to pass up 25% off!
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Everything the light touches is my kingdom.
Looks like it will be a quiet Friday in the office. I may have just jinxed things, but I'm not going to think about that.
Good luck on your NT scan, Steph! I opted out of the additional testing, but I hear it's a super cool ultrasound since they do start to look like babies then.

[QUOTE]holy crap. You have a squash! How have you been feeling?
Posted by Steph+J[/QUOTE]
I know, right? WTF squash!
I've been feeling good. I'm turning into a furnace, but that's easy enough to deal with. Swelling is starting to get annoying though.

It's donut Friday. And I'm picking my sister up at the airport from NYC tonight! She just got offered an awesome job as a fashion designer and I'm so happy for her.
I just caught on to the FB/Twitter drama. Are people going to be stupid enough to "like" things in a message board convo? Most people here wouldn't want the FB world to know about their posts so hopefully noone uses the function. Gross.

I know! It's ironic after all the donut posting yesterday. We get donuts brought in every Friday. :) Although I must admit I quit eating donuts for a very long time because I didn't like them either. But free breakfast is free breakfast and nowI look forward to it every week!

</div><div>Dj, lots of tea with honey, throat spray and lozenges. Hopefully you feel better soon!</div>
I'm going to work on my resume and job hunt while FI takes his car to the shop. Apparently, last night, the check engine light came on and it decided to "shake" while he was driving it, which can't be a good thing.
