• Just a bit of random observations and ramblings.  There are many
  things I tell myself I ought to write down and I never do.  Maybe
  someday I’ll actually have a bonified journal (leather bound and
  everything) but for now this neglected blog will have to serve in its
  place.

  We found out last Tues. the kid I carry in me is  a wee little
  lad.   I’m  still in shock.  How can I possibly
  have a person in me?  A person complete with a name.  James
  Ramsey IV…aka Jamie (until he decides he’d rather be called something
  else)

  Julia keeps popping into my trailer saying things like,  “Can you
  take the baby out so I can play with  it? …I promise I’ll put it
  back in your tummy when I’m done” and “Jim won’t teach me how to kiss”
  or “Jim won’t let me dress your baby in girl clothes!…but I saw a guy
  yesterday who was wearing girl clothes.”

  Somebody stop me from getting on the Crossings…it depresses me.

  Somebody stop me from using Google.  It takes worries like
  preeclampsia, placenta previa, and premature labor right out of the
  doctors office and directly at my fingertips.  Google is like fast
  food hysteria when you’re pregnant.

  We’re all celebrating today because Uncle Vern lost his job (something
  he’d been hoping for)  I find that mildly amusing.   He
  was supposed to  retire this year, but because they’re selling the
  ship he works on as an engineer (the Exxon Valdez) he was hoping 
  he’d be laid off before he had to retire, so he could get  a
  severance package and his retirement.

  I need to talk to people more often.
