crazylady's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 04.12.02 Everyday I get dumber and dumber. Yesterday my mother and I went shopping adn I picked up a pair of slip-on clogs and I kept commenting on how comfortable they were. Well right around the time ER came on I noticed that the insides of the shoes seemed to have different tops on them...Well I took them off and figured out that I had been wearing the damn things all day with the cardboard inserts to keep the tops stiff and uncrushed...you know...the things that most people check for and throw away before actually wearing their new shoes? Yeah...they say you can lose up to 20% of your brain power while you're pregnant...I just didn't expect it to happen all at once. In other news...I've got an award winning stress headache. We're (well mostly me but the Sister and mother have recently started helping) getting things together for the baby shower...ugh...Daddy-to-be says he doesn't want our families to meet...the MIL wants to invite all her sisters that she no longer speaks to (doesn't that just make ME look greedy? Really ladies, this is for my child not so someone can win a bragging contest)...my mother wants to have our family out to her house so that leaves me with three showers...my family, his family, and lastly (but not leastly...lol) my friends. The Sister just proclaimed she'll have it here and invite everyone and if they don't show up "Fuck them". I'm considering moving the child to a mountain top somewhere and raising her as a mountain person. And another thing while I'm ranting away...Sunday we went to the first birthdy party for our friends daughter...I don't know why you would have a first birthday party (meaning inviting people other than family members) for a child that pretty much has no clue what's going on besides new toys. I plan (and bear in mind these are all plans and speculations...in a few months my kid will probably be drinking Kool-Aid in her bottle and being babysat by Clifford, Calliou and whatever else PBS has to offer up in the afternoon while I spend all my time drinking coffee and surfing the internet)...anyhow...I plan to keep the first birthday very low-key with probably just Daddy-to-be (what the hell am I going to call him after the baby is born...calling him Daddy is just kinda creepy) the baby and I and a very messy cake. Throw the cake in front of the kid, let her go to town and then hose her off and watch her run around in circle for several hours while in the throes of a major sugar buzz...isn't that the American way? Sometime this weekend we need to drag ourselves to Babies-R-Us and register since they don't have their whole inventory online. I'm planning on being both overwhelmed and frustrated... I've been playing Neopets again lately. I don't know why. I don't even know what I'm doing really. Something to pass the time I suppose. Daddy-to-be bought a digital camera the other day so eventually I'll be able to post updated pictures of the apartment...I know...it's terribly exciting. We decided awhile ago we wanted one for the baby since I've heard horror stories about film not developing and whatnot...plus digital cameras are just cool.
