Sprite, Me, & 1993

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

“So what’s your name?”
“Daddy M-A-C”
“And what you drink?”
“S-P-R-I-T-E”
“Why?”
“Cuz it’s a lifesaver when you need a thirst quencher, like a kiss with a limey twist, now you know that’s kicking!”
“Word! So drink up, drink up is what you gotta do!”
“Why?”
“Cuz I like the Sprite in you!”
Seriously, after all these years, I STILL know this commercial by [...]

my mood:everyone::ernesto:east coast–you can see it coming before it hits

Wednesday, September 6th, 2006

so last wk or so, we caught the remnants of ernesto. it was only a tropical storm or whatever by the time it got to us in va beach, but man alive! that thing was powerful! i think our power might have flickered several times but that’s it. thank god that there was no damage. [...]

Tuesday, August 29th, 2006

do you ever get a song stuck in your head that just won’t leave? yeah…i have 2 of them. one is the “queer eye” theme–”all things just keep getting better”–& the other is gnarls barkley’s “crazy.”�they’ve�been�stuck�on�repeat�for�at�least�the�past�wk.�:)
anywho, baby stuff is pretty good. my last dr’s appt was kinda *shock* for me. w/o giving too much info, [...]

like a dyson vacuum…

Tuesday, August 22nd, 2006

…i feel like energy is just sucked outta me. lately, i’ll do maybe 2 things on my list of “things to do” and then i’ll get so exhausted and i’ll need to lie down or nap. i like being active & stuff, so it’s hard for me to adjust to it all. due date’s in [...]

32 wks & counting

Wednesday, August 2nd, 2006

i’m officially 32 wks today. i feel really prepared about the baby coming, despite all of the “helpful” advice i’ve received. you wouldn’t believe what ppl tell you and honestly believe that they’re helping you.
crazy crap like, “oh, you’ll never be 100% prepared.” wtc? why would you tell an emotional preggo that. i know that [...]

dr appt update

Thursday, July 13th, 2006

just got back from my dr’s appt. everything, of course, went well. and it only took 2 hrs! oh, for the day that i can be in & out in under 30.
i felt bad for the nurse that was trying to get the baby’s heartbeat. the baby’s constantly moving around and kicking so you can [...]

“no uterus, no opinion”–rachel

Sunday, July 9th, 2006

for the past week or two, i’ve been having some braxton-hicks contractions. one of my preg books had the nerve to say, “totally painless! most women don’t notice it!” riiiiight. braxton-hicks are little ways your body is prepping you for labor. and it sucks. i think it’s been twice now that they’ve woken me [...]
