I&#8217;ve decided I&#8217;d like to write about something that has nothing to do with Doodles or my pregnancy&#8230; but I&#8217;ve been wracking my brain about it all day and I&#8217;m drawing a blank. I won&#8217;t write about work because, well, I think it&#8217;s unprofessional. I can&#8217;t write about my friends because if they want to be written about, they&#8217;ll start their own blogs. I&#8217;ve already stated that I don&#8217;t like writing about politics. No point in writing about books or movies: I keep <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/bookblog2005.html\">a separate blog<\/a> for that.<\/p>\n<p>I could write about the fact that our appliances seems to be in mass rebellion. Our scanner died. The oven needs to be replaced. Adam&#8217;s car conked out in the middle of the highway. We have a few thousand dollars worth of decisions to make here, but hey, really, I barely have the energy to care about this stuff, so why would you care?<\/p>\n<p>Hmm. I didn&#8217;t get into this year&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ingnycmarathon.org\">New York marathon<\/a>. Not that I would have run it this year, but I&#8217;d defer to the following year and run it in 2006. I&#8217;ll still try again next year, but it&#8217;s easier motivate to train when you&#8217;re guaranteed an entry. However, Adam <i>did<\/i> get in, and <a href=\".\/2004\/11\/youll-eat-those-words.html\">he&#8217;s already stated<\/a> that he can run a 4:40 marathon, so we&#8217;ll see what happens. Call it a hunch, but I don&#8217;t think he&#8217;ll be running that 4:40 marathon this year. But there, that&#8217;s now been written, so what else is there to say?<\/p>\n<p>So what does that mean? It means I&#8217;m stuck writing about Doodles and my pregnancy. My neighbors very kindly threw me a shower this past weekend, and suddenly, there is a wealth of pink in this house. It occurs to me, I have no idea where to store Sugar Face&#8217;s stuff. Doodle&#8217;s stuff is everywhere. There&#8217;s no room for anything else! I keep thinking, &#8220;Oh, I still need to clean Doodle&#8217;s old clothes and toys\/wash the new clothes\/read up on labor (since I didn&#8217;t go through it the first time)\/plan what to do with Doodles when it&#8217;s time for me to go to the hospital\/set up the cosleeper\/find a doula\/etc&#8230;Oh, but there&#8217;s plenty of time!&#8221; It occurred to me just the other day, &#8220;Hey, it&#8217;s third trimester time! Time&#8217;s running out!&#8221; While Doodles was a planned C, it was an unplanned planned C when my water broke at 37 weeks and 1 day. Which means if Sugar Face comes on the same time frame, I&#8217;ve got about 8 1\/2 weeks. And unlike my first pregnancy it means I have an hour here and an hour there, which adds up to about 8 1\/2&#8211;maybe 10&#8211;hours between now and d-day or b-day, as I suppose it should more appropriately be called. Of course, I don&#8217;t know why, but my hunch is that Sugar Face is going to be late. Which means I&#8217;ll hurry up and prepare and then have lots of time when I&#8217;ll be sitting around twiddling my thumbs.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, as I&#8217;m sitting here typing, my belly is moving all by itself. Thump, thump, thump. Doin&#8217; a little dance all on it&#8217;s own.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I know. I really didn&#8217;t have anything to write.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s that time of week again: blogging time.
