5 Days
Thats right...we are counting down the days/hours until my due date. And now I can officially say that yes...I DO have all of my baby stuff now. Maybe I'm irresponsible, or maybe we can just blame it on my "yellow"* personality but I didn't start buying things until about a month to 3 weeks before my due date. I would highly recommend this if you can handle it. It is amazing how many things you can get at 3 baby showers.
I even went and got my hair did and a pedicure so I can look real nice for my OB and the millions of pics that will soon be taken. You're welcome universe.
I am very acutely aware of how uncomfortable I make people when I go out in public now. And its always men. Men HATE seeing very pregnant women out in public. I don't know if our society has not been able to evolve past our southern "Gone with the Wind" phase or if its just a man thing. Cam and I went to see one our last movies before the babe comes(X Men First Class--It was awesome and I love the actor who plays the young Magneto--also, best cameo ever from Hugh Jackman.) The theatre we went to is at our mall and finding ourselves with time to kill we wandered around a little bit. I got a whole lot of "whoa, WHOA!" "holy cow" and even a few "sh!t"'s in there while meandering.
So guys, let me apologize. I'm sorry that I'm carrying a child. I'm sorry that two intelligent people got together, and are now passing on some pretty good genes to the next generation. I'm sorry that my little smarty pants fetus will probably end up paying for your social security aka drinking money when you're so old that you can't even wipe your own rear. Even in after all those years you'll still be ignorant, and I'll still be an elitist. Oh well.
Anywho, I've decided to take off the "reactions" section from my blog. I just straight up don't understand who selects the "weird" and "shut your mouth" reactions. I thought only my friends read this blog? I don't know, maybe I am weird because I don't blog stalk people that I hate. So if you're blog stalking me to prove to yourself that you're better off than me...assure yourself that you are not. Haha. But seriously, get a life.
And that especially goes to the people who marked shut your mouth on my Representative Weiner comments. I don't think that rep. Weiner got on my blog and was like "F you Katie!" I'm assuming it was just an idiot who doesn't watch the news. Come on people, the media is calling it "Weinergate." I mean...Weinergate! That's hilarious! Ok, whatever.
Yeah...I sound angry. I think my rants have less to do with anger and more to do with being 39 weeks pregnant.
Hey, here's a teaser to keep you reading and make you less scared of me! Maybe if you're lucky I'll post a pic of my comically swollen feet! They look like the mean aunt's on Harry Potter who gets blown up like a balloon and floats away.
Still reading? Good for you.
*Yellow personality is an allusion to the personality colors test that most people take in High School and/or college. Some tests use orange or gold instead of yellow. But we like to keep it old school.
Katie you seriously crack me up. Thank you for speaking your mind and providing me with some comic relief during my work day. I hope all goes well with the delivery, I am so excited for you!

Please watch these videos before reading on.
Ok watched them? Good there was a secret alternative reason I wanted you to watch them. It was to get you softened up for my confession.
First I need to apologize. I must admit, I am the loser who is pushing the Weird and Shut your mouth buttons on the Blog...I know I know it is totally stupid. But no one was pushing them and I thought they were lonely. Then when I pushed the first one I got this unexpected rush of juvenile pleasure. I've been pushing them ever since. Every time it would be accompanied by a fiendish laughter. I know you probably hate me now. I figure that with time you will surely forgive. Remember Matthew 6:14-15 (i like the NIV version)
If you ban me from you blog, I totally understand. But, I must say that it would take me one step further away from actually having a "life" as you suggest I should get. Since reading your blog is one of my daily joys.
Cheers,
Steve
