Scattered thoughts

[rms10]

The combination of travel and the third trimester of pregnancy has hit me like a ton of bricks. I got home on Tuesday, and it's only today that I'm starting to feel normal again.

My to-do list is a mile long, and I haven't crossed anything off of it. However, we bought a car yesterday, so there's that. And we joined Costco -- man, the eeee! turned 35 and suddenly we're buying 4-door cars and joining warehouse clubs.

Anyway. Work-wise, the trip went very well. I also have some pictures from Italy that, at the rate I'm going, will be online in another three weeks. (I only just finished posting pictures from the June trip to Denmark and London.)

And now I need a nap from my very strenuous morning of, like, eating breakfast and straightening up.

Dayum, how is it that you're in the third already? It seems like just last week you were announcing a future baby scientist.

I know!

What scares me is that I've pretty much been pregnant for all of 2009, AND IT'S JULY. How did that happen?

No, because even with Costco there did not seem to be deals on the 2010 Priuses (Prii?). Alas! We are fairly confident that we got a fair deal (there was no dealer markup on the MSRP, as far as we could tell) on the car and the financing and the trade-in, at least.

Hang in there. The end of the last trimester is really draining, although it's so strange to compare it to the beginning of parenthood. Enjoy the naps. =)

Ha! They're both difficult and tiring in very different ways, I'm sure.

For some reason, until last night I'd only been able to sleep for 6 hours at night, despite being very tired. But last night I slept for 9 hours, and that was after a nearly two-hour nap on the couch. Hurrah!
