Post to random to title

I managed to get through 2/3 of the day today really believing that it was Thursday.  To my core I would have SWORN it was Thursday.  The discovery that it was in fact just Wednesday was so awful the only thing that could have pulled me out of my slump would have been the following combination of events: Crab Rangoon delivered to my door with a mock-cosmotini 15 minutes before a brand new episode of Private Practice where I actually get to see Joe Hackett (I remember his Wings character but not his PP one for some reason – I could google this but really why bother) the entire episode and he’s always holding babies and talking about how he wants to be a good father.  Note: none of those things are going to occur.  slump continues.

Another wave of exhaustion has washed over me today…I feel like I did back at week 8 or 9 when I was so tired I simply couldn’t get my eyeballs to stay open and we’re +10 weeks from that point – what’s the deal?  I constantly find myself wanting to call a number where someone tells me “Yes, this is normal” because apparently EVERYTHING odd that happens to your body while pregnant is completely and totally normal and rather then being surprised or even a little put off by this we’re all expected to embrace all of these completely UNNORMAL things that are happening to us because “THEY” say it’s normal.   That’s one big load of Shittake.  I’m sorry – it’s not normal to have to blow my nose every 3 minutes as reliable as Old Faithful.  It’s also not normal that my boobs are so flipping large, and I have to say they don’t feel real…I’ve felt fake breasts and these things attached to me feel F-A-K-E.  Not normal.  It’s also not normal to really NEED pickles the way that I need pickles and it isn’t just one type of pickle it’s a whole variety of pickles – if for example I have New Pickles at lunch today I come home and really need Bread & Butter slices w/Ridges – don’t give me these knock off without ridges Bread & Butter pickles, I’ll throw you down!  Then later a really good Kosher Dill is right up my alley.  I used to like mustard on sandwiches – now I like Russian Dressing, why?  Because their’s sweet relish in that dressing my friends and Relish is in the Pickle family…a cousin if you will.  Not normal.  Don’t even get me started about the freakish way my nails are growing…I’m not complaining about the finger nails so much but the toe nails – COME ON a weekly toe nail trim should be enough.  NOT normal.

Don’t worry I was able to get off that soap box without falling flat on my face.   Are you one of those people that can wake up, get in the shower, brush your hair and have it look great?  Without product or a blow dryer or extensive brush work or hot rollers?  Yes?  Stop reading. I ‘m totally going to complain about you.  I showered this morning…I usually shower daily but I do my hair maybe every other day or third day because it just is such a PITA – I said screw it today – I brushed it and put it in a pony tail and called it done.  I always find that days where I have the screw it mentality towards my hair the screw it tends to rub off to every thing else too.  Is it so much to ask to have hair like on the Pantene commercial?  Is it?  I mean, sure, they likely had a whole team of people there working on her and it’s probably not even HER hair but is it so much to want the Pantene commercial hair without all the work?  I had a friend in college who had hair like that and I have to say some days it’s very difficult to like her because of it….perfectly wonderful person in every other way though.

See, just as I told you in the title.  Random.
