Pepperocini & Fish

I could live off of fish & pepperocini.
The fun part is, both absolutely disgusted me a month or so ago.
Now, that's all I want in the world and I'd be happy!!

I made Russell go to this bar across the street, their menu said they put pepperocini in their salad so I had him go ask if he could buy a little container of them. They gave it to us free since I also ordered something.
I found out today you can buy them in jars.. in stores!! Who knew?? Then Terry gave me a recipe for roast w/pepperocini. That's on the menu sometime this week!

Still gaining more weight than I should, so today I am back on myplate tracking my food. So far so good. I can do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grabbin' The Ankles

Really, I am going to just be so honest here.. cause, well I've told everyone in real life too--even a waiter, so it's really not that special-- I just think some people might go "OMG LOLZ WHY WOULD U SAY THAT TO PEOPLE U DON'T KNOW!?!?!!111oneoneone"

Tee-hee.

So I learned the definition of constipation. Due to the pregnancy, I feel as though the constipation is giving me 'trial runs' for real labor. Bathroom breaks bring tears, grunting, holding my ankles and all kinds of fun things you can imagine--but if you're imagining it, picture me as a cartoon character it's more funny. And this is WITH my prenatal vitamins that say they have a mild stool softener in it.. ah huh. I can't imagine life without them!

Besides this, no symptoms of pregnancy. Yes, I am looking for symptoms like I am sick. I want to feel pregnant.. not constipated. It all boils down to, I want a baby bump dang it. Then I'd have someone to talk to when I have to hold my ankles!

Oh and hunger, I have never been so hungry in my life. I could eat 24/7 and not bat an eye. Every single moment feels like I haven't eaten in a week.

Russell got that silly laptop.

Hockey season begins tomorrow, I am very excited to go watch our local team. We are in the owner's booth, so we have premo ice suite seats. Go Huntsville Havoc! :D Maybe this year we won't suck and I'll have a reason to brag about them.

Time to go hold my ankles........

No Smoking!

I know I haven't posted in a while, I'm not really sure why. I guess everytime I go to post, I get distracted.
I quit smoking last Monday. It's hard to explain all the things I think about it. So glad to save the money, not smell like smoke, and I don't miss it like I always thought I would. I also think I might be slightly brainwashed by this book my friend gave me to read. The Easy Way To Stop Smoking by Allen Carr. It's hard to explain, but.. something is weird, this was a little too easy.
I don't crave to smoke, the only time I miss it is when I don't have anything better to do (long car rides, standing outside with other smokers talking). Russell quit too using Chantix.

Russell has been bugging me for a month, wanting to get a new laptop that he can play his games on. The same person who less than 2 months ago demanded a budget so we could find ways to cut costs to afford a baby, since ya know, we don't make enough to survive.. not.

He said if he gets it, he can play the games in bed with me since I apparently live in our bed now. I don't know how that came about, but when I get home from work I go straight in there and curl up for TV till sleepy time. I put a limit of $1,200 on it, since he always seems to think he needs the biggest, best, most expensive,ridiculous toy out there. His current computer was almost $10k and has a fingerprint identifier. Yah. This machine that gets outdated and needs replacing.
Well he keeps texting me and e-mailing me info on computers he finds, none of which ever stay in the limit I gave him. I told him this will be his X-mas present, even though I've never spent this much on him for any holiday.. He finally found something roughly close, after taxes and everything it is $1,600. Fine, I'm just tired of hearing about it. Well, it's discontinued, only 3 left and some-long-story-I-zoned-out. Bottom line is he has to drive 2 hours to get it.. tonight. Fun times, see ya honey! But no, I have to go too some reason. If I ask him to sit in the car for 5 minutes while I run into a store on the way home from work I hear huffing, puffing, groaning, and moaning. But I'm suppose to go 4 hours total while he gets something I don't even want to get.

I got to hear my baby's heartbeat last Monday. 160 BPM, which means.. it's healthy!
I'm gaining weight, I hate it, but I quit smoking. I can only tackle one thing at a time. My band feels wide open, so I had an appointment to get it filled tomorrow.
But then this weekend I went to Tunica with my mom and low and behold it miraculously is too tight!! ARGH! I have had a hard time getting anything down all weekend. Cancelled my fill and waiting to see if it goes away.

Work is good, it's our busy season--so I am staying busy. That may have something to do with lack of posts. I go to post and my phone rings with a fire I need to put out.

I guess that's it, I am getting e-mails from customers so I'll post more another time.
Thanks for all the websites you guys gave me, seriously I am loving them. The "passive-aggressive posts" had links to some other funny pages I've been reading (Cake Wrecks, Best of Craigslist).
If anyone has some more, by all means.. share.
