quicksand
so i am finally doing the thing which shelby tagged me with.
"ten weird little known facts about yourself"
1. the moment i got a dog, i finally felt like a grown-up. The cat, getting married, paying taxes, none of those things made me feel so much like a grown-up as rushing home from UC to take the dog to the vet right after we got her b/c I was afraid she had pneumonia.
2. i was not the smartest nor the most likely to succeed (or even close) in my high school class of 120. I was near the top, but not one of my classmates, i bet, would have predicted that I would now have a Ph.D. in science/engineering
3. i keep my certificate of completion of the aforementioned Ph.D. on my refrigerator. I (FINALLY) got my diploma last week, but i so much more like the certificate as the dog just got one to match from puppy class.
4. once i have this baby in sept, i will have spent the previous 365 days finishing my Ph.D., completing enough work for a masters, getting married, getting a dog, and growing and birthing a child.
5. on april 21, i will be a bridesmaid in my best friend from high school's wedding. i ordered the dress in october. of course it is the size of my wedding dress. one of my biggest stresses so far with the baby growing is being able to fit in that dress. considering my stomach flu has erased the few lbs i have gained, i think it is going to be okay. it has room in the belly as it is a very cute a-line dress.
6. i hate the snow. okay, so that is not little known, but i bet you didn't know that it snowed an inch and a half last night. WINTER GO AWAY!!!!
7. i'm a closest baby story watcher. actually this is as new habit (well, i did watch it a some in high school). it comes on at 8 am. if i am still working out then, i watch it. it also comes on at 8:30. so if it is friday and i've been lazy and got up later, i watch both.
8. i always thought that i was all about the epidural. now i'm not so sure. i am pro it, but i think i might try it natural. but then again..why pain?
9. i knew that ben and i were going to be married 6 weeks after i met him.
10. if i could do it all over again (maintaining the puppy, the kitty, and the boy), i would be a forensic scientist.

I think my head would explode if I had a 365-day stretch like yours (#4).

I need a picture of the bald booty, wrapped leg, xray film eared cat.
