Last night I was over at my friend G's house. And I threw up.
Of course, I knew right then that I was pregnant. The mood swings, the other times that I have been nauseous, the tiredness. It all made sense in the scariest way possible.
So G and I get in the car to go purchase a pregnancy test.
I select my test and we head up to the front counter. Why is this such an embarassing purchase? I'm married. Why is the check-out girl looking at me that way. I'm married. Why is my face going all red and hot? I'm married.
"I'm married." Yes, I actually said it out loud. To the check-out girl.
She was flustered. Naturally. She said something about how she wasn't looking at me but at the computer.
Yeah, I ran out of the store.
And no, I am not pregnant. I think I just have a bug.
Ha! I totally thought I was pregnant a few months ago. K was going out for other errands and, get this, HE OFFERED TO BUY IT FOR ME. I couldn't take him up on that soon enough.
Yet you bring up a valid point: WE'RE MARRIED. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO SOCIAL STIGMA INVOLVED.
I despair of ever being part of that cool group of people who "don't care what anyone thinks of them."

Reading
Books of Booky Past: these are books that I have recently (or not so recently) read, and recommend.
the plain truth: jodi picoult This book provided a wealth of information about the Amish community. It was wonderful.
the time traveler's wife: audrey niffenegger (sp?) This book is like the movie Serendipity. Wow! the first time around, still pretty great for consequent readings.
Present Booky Books: do I really need to explain what this is?
dragon haven: robin hobb Yeah, it's fantasy. So is Edward Cullen.
Books of the Future: Oooooo!
