week 17 going on 18

this week went by without a weekly update. not much to report, except feeling the same as always. pants getting tighter so i went and spent my birthday card at target - topped out on the pants size! found out that i picked the wrong size dress - accidentally bought the smaller size. tried it on earlier this week and couldn't figure out why it felt so tight! so it might not get me through my pregnancy after all, but with summer coming up, maybe i can find a cute sleeveless dress or something.

catching up on tiredness from vacation. been napping a bit more than usual. hungry for sliced turkey and cranberry sauce. will try to cook a ham and sweet potato casserole for easter dinner.

i'm amazed that there are people who STILL don't know i'm preggers. talked to one family wednesday night and they had no clue. i find it funny becos they are friends with a family the boy goes to school with, and i'm pretty certain they know i'm pregnant (i've talked about it at school so unless they are deaf they should know about it!) also got my first catty comment about eating wednesday night. was hungry for these awesome oatmeal coconut cookies, so i helped myself to a couple, and a lady i'm in choir with commented that "it was okay, i was eating for two." actually, no it's not okay. technically i shouldn't have cookies. technically i shouldn't be eating more than a couple hundred extra calories - just enough to cover the extra energy my body's expending for baking the babies. but the cookies were yummy, i don't jones cookies that much, so i figured i could have a treat. the lady's a bit of a backhanded commenter (when she first heard i was pregnant, she said "i wondered what took you so long!" ABSOLUTELY THE WORSE THING TO SAY TO SOMEONE TTC, AND ESPECIALLY TO SOMEONE WHO'S HAD A LOSS!) fucking cow.

speaking of weird pregnancy symptoms. i find myself lately making uncensored comments, a la asperger's syndrome type of inappropriate comments (no disrespect to anyone with asperger's). like, with the cookie comment, God held my tongue from saying "fucking cow" to the lady (good thing since this happened in church). or monday night, when i told my knitting teacher i wouldn't be to group next week becos she wouldn't be there and "since my knitting mojo has been lacking lately, i'm just not in the place to teach someone new how to knit." i could tell by her response that i surprised her, and immediately i felt bad that i said that. it's like my tact button is temporarily disabled. i'm a snark, but unless i'm really mad, i don't snark to anyone's face (which is prolly worse anyway). i don't know if it's becos i'm more tired or just lacking patience or what, but my tact o meter has been way off the charts. i hope it goes away after the babies are born.

it's holy week and easter is coming. it reminds me of what's really important in this world.

i have things to vent about, but i'll save them for another post.
