Contemplating a break

warning: This post contains whining and self pity. Read at your own risk.

Today, I couldn't put my socks on by myself. Lifting my feet into my pant legs is becoming an impossible daily chore and if it weren't for the recent change in cold weather, I would probably just walk around trouser-less all the time. However, I don't think that's legal in Utah. I now need to roll from side to side to gain enough momentum to launch myself out of bed in the morning and all I can think about is how I must look like a beetle that has been flipped on its back and can't seem to roll over. I'm big.

In the past week my narcolepsy has returned with avengence. I passed out on the couch right in the middle of election night and missed Obama's speech. Watching The Office is something I look forward to EVERY week. It came on last night at 8:00pm and seriously, by 8:05 I was asleep. It's the weirdest feeling because one minute I'm listening to the theme music for The Office, the next it's 11:30pm and I have to pee and scrape myself off the couch. It's the strangest thing.

Don't get me wrong. I know this is all worth it. I dream about the day I'm going to meet her and wonder what her laugh will sound like some day. And I still get very excited every time she gets hiccups or dances when she hears her song "Bokkie" on the Ipod. Really, I can't wait to come face-to-face with this little person that has been setting up shop inside me these past 7 1/2 months. Ugh...my complaining is so ridiculous when i take the time to put everything into perspective.

I think I'm going to step away from the blogging for a little while. I don't have much to write about these days with the exception that the Mervyns Going-Out-Of-Business Sale is like, the most awesomest sale ever.

I will however, be sure to keep adding pictures now and then of the ever growing baby belly for those of you that are curious. I'm 30 weeks pregnant today with only 6 short weeks until I'm considered 'full term.' And did you know that Christmas is 7 weeks away? c-c-c-c-crazy.
