First of all, I feel pretty much normal today. (Go figure.) Which is why I feel free to dump the insanity of this post upon y’all. Behold! I have a secret! And my secret is: Hall & Oates. I am totally not kidding. OH MY GOD, I was so into Hall & Oates when I […]
Today sucked. Today my body stopped being in crisis mode from blood loss, and decided it was time to acknowledge pregnancy loss. AF is here and with her comes all her attending CRAP. I’m a big purple bruise emotionally. I really need a fucking shower. And… and… and I just feel bad. Oh, and my […]
NOTE: This is a story about bleeding, a LOT of bleeding, and two hospitals. It’s pretty graphic. There’s an OBGYN in it and an exam and everything. YHBW. So yesterday my body finally decided to have that long-awaited miscarriage. I woke up early, bleeding. Had cramps, then had worse cramps, then had pain. I asked […]
Brett came home from work around 10:30 today, and aside from stapling plastic over the two living room windows did nothing but sleep on the couch. I’d given him two little honey-do items (remove the air conditioner from the bedroom window, and move the old mattress into another room) and he did neither, bless him. […]
Yesterday was Hell Day. Hell Day is what we call the day every year when we go last-minute Christmas shopping at the Hell Mall (aka the Coral Ridge Mall, Coralville IA) to spend hours trying to find parking places and rubbing elbows with a million zoned-out Coneheads and getting testy with each other. Snort! Mr. […]
I have one! I have one! OH MY GOD I have one! And it’s blue, and it’s wonderful, and Mr. Brett gave it to me because he’s totally superior in every way, and I love it! It’s my brand new Apple iPod mini, and YES IT IS every bit as tiny and geeky and cute […]

I hate trying to buy ebooks for Microsoft Reader. I only do it when I want a particular book that isn’t offered in any other format – today, for instance, it was Robin Hobb’s Assassin’s Apprentice/Royal Assasin bundle – and even then it’s almost not worth it. After you purchase the book, the site contacts […]
A few more pictures of Parker are now in the gallery. Check out her royal red-headedness in pics from hospital and home!
I figured it was time for another uterine update. (This may be TMI for some of you delicate readers, but there isn’t anything terribly gross if you want to plunge on ahead.) My midwife thinks – and I agree – that what I’m experiencing is a blighted ovum, or anembryonic pregnancy. This means that due […]
