Mini-Update

Update: STILL PREGNANT (DAY 277) (I feel like I am writing my blog from some weird deserted island for pregnant ladies!)

Stats: 1 to 1-1/2 (close to 2 - see below) cm dilated, 50 (ISH)% effaced (you have to love those technical terms - 50%ish I swear that is what the Midwife said) and soft...

Exam: Ummm OUCH, *(&(%$)(#%)(#%() OUCHHHHHHHH

****
It is cooler outside so for that I am grateful. Things that we did and I am looking forward to: we went to the County Fair last evening and a gathering of friends to visit with on Friday evening complete with BROWNIES (no ice cream - I am now in full denial mode... Pancake, NO MORE ICE CREAM.) YES, I had some the night before last even though I said no more. It was Cookies and Cream and I love Cookies and Cream. Plus it makes me feel better... Tsk tsk tsk, I know!

I am making a pedicure appointment for Saturday because I really want one and dammit if I am going to full term I will have cute toes when I get there.

Hey and it is pay day Friday... Oh wait I am NOT going to be paid because I stopped taking my draw. Wow, that totally rocks.

Hmm, well The X Files movie begins Friday - not that I will be seeing it on opening night but hey how long do movies take to get to DVD these days, like 30 days after release, right!? I am freakin' excited for the X Files movies to start. I do not want to hear about it if you see. I want to be surprised and impressed and fall in love with Scully and Mulder ALL over again! Now that is something to look forward to!

Next update on pregnancy stats: Wednesday July 30th at 9:45a (membranes will be stripped, baby better come or else... like threatening her works!)

Day 277. Hee. Sounds really long when you put it that way!

I'm looking forward to the X-Files movie too. I wasn't even that into the show after a couple of seasons, but I still love the concept.

Hey it sounds like you are making progress! I'm still hoping that you go into labor on Friday night! Too bad I don't know some kind of crazy labor inducing brownie recipe!

Melissa: Mmmmmmmm brownies as an induction method sound just fine to me ;) That and ice cream. WHY CANT ICE CREAM COUNT?!??! ;)

Lori D: It does sound really long when you put it that way. I love quirky shows like X Files, Lost and Twin Peaks.
