for my mudda

I have been threatened to lose readership if I don't post something by 11:47am. My mother, the one threatening to leave, even went so far as to provide me with a list of interesting things I can share with you all. So, in no particular order:

-and i quote, you know you're pregnant when "you can eat cold pizza right out of the box after consuming congealed mac and cheese" (gee, thanks ma)
-Matt is a superstar...working hard at REI and then coming home to do his chores (ie: the dishes) and to take care of me (ie: letting me hold the remote)
-we have been eating off a kitchen table that i refinished and then lost the screws for--so it's balancing on it's base. It's quite impressive to watch us carefully balance our meal on the table so as not to tip it over. maybe my goal for '09 should be to get my lazy behind to Home Depot and buy some screws...
-this one is painful to admit: i have made a bit of a 'parting of the seat cushions' on our couch from where i plant my lazy behind (the one that hasn't been to Home Depot) every afternoon. It's seriously turning into the black hole...once you sit there, you just kind of sink in. it's a problem. one i hope resolves itself with either the breaking of my tv or childbirth (don't judge me).
-my family picked my up on monday for a surprise--we went to fashion place mall, drew each others names, were given 10 dollars, and then split up to find a present for that person. it was pretty fun. amidst the nasty panties, the cool stickers, the shoe-box slippers, and the funny nose glasses, the best present just may have been the balking (spelling?) rubber chicken that my little bro got my dad. my dad, apparently easily amused, had so much fun making that little chicken squawk and squeal that we had to beg him to put it away. even when we left, he stuck it out the window to get peoples reactions as we were stopped at red lights. it was actually very entertaining.

and, that's it. i hope you learned something new about me other than i'm a lazy good for nothing sack of baby growing girl. but, even that was explained by my ma who said, "remember God himself was tired after creating the same thing you are creating in your very tummy...a little person that you will be responsible for forever and ever. This is wonderful, not boring." Thanks mom.
