Well, it's raining like crazy outside. Somehow it seems to alway rain on a Tuesday or Thursday. The days I have classes. Is it just me or has it rained more than usual this year?? I was thinking about the baby today when I was getting in the car to go to class. You know I will probably dread rainy days even more then because it seems to me that it will make hopping in the car take longer and much wetter. Not to mention trying to keep the baby dry. I'm really just procrastinating doing my Arkansas History presentation, which I need to give in 5 hours. I should probably start. It's not major. Which is part of the reason I have put it off so long I guess. Funny enough I'm not nervous at all. *edit* Weight is one of those topics that generally is not good manners to comment on. Most people generally follow this rule. As of late lots of people have started asking me when I am due. I answer the end of June. There eyes tend to get big. I then say 6 months along, thinking that maybe then their eyes will shrink. No such luck. Many times these are people who I have never talked to before, let alone have ever seen before. They then go on to say, "Oh MY!" or "Those must be some cravings you're having". First of all I do realize that it is VERY normal for people to comment on your weight while pg, but I would never make a negative comment to someone about their weight. To think about it I don't believe other than close family I have ever said anything about weight gain. and then it was "Wow, you look really good!" Why do these people think it is not rude to say these things to me, especially if they don't know me? Some of these people then find it necessary to inform me about healthy nutrition in some way. Some of them like to remind me the more weight I put on now the harder it will be to lose it after the baby. Are you kidding me. I don't take these comments to heart. I know that my weight gain is actually on a great track. To be honest I'm not sure how what all I have gained pretty much all ended up in my tummy. I'm a petite person, so a baby will look bigger on me than someone taller. But I just want to know where these people get the nerve. So after people put in their 2 cents I want to put in mine. But I haven't thot of very nice 2 cents phrases so I don't. I feel much better after venting about this. I like to use Xanga to vent. Anyone who reads it probably thinks I tend to be an angry person, which is quite the opposite. I enjoy being a happy person, so when something makes me a little nutty I express it, get it out there, and feel much, much better. You know what they say about that Freshman "15" |
