In which I slyly slip news into other news

As if I didn't have enough trouble keeping this blog updated, I'm thinking of starting another. I've been wanting to post pictures of my lunches, but I don't think this is quite the place for it, so I'm going to make a separate blog just for that. Lunch is pretty much the highlight of my days lately. I've got work, unpacking, and lunch. Oh, and I'm pregnant. I suppose that is pretty exciting, actually, though at the moment it is just boobs and pimples and ravenous hunger. Which probably explains the intensified obsession with lunch.

We went on a tour of a local birth center last night, to see if I want to wrangle my insurance into letting me go there. All the other ladies on the tour were so much more pregnant than me, which made me feel slightly out of place. Really, I'm just on top of things. We walked by a recovery room in the maternity ward where I could see tiny arms and legs sticking out of a blanket, at which point in time I had one of those moments where you really feel what is actually going on. Whoa. We're going to have one of those in a few months. It still feels a bit academic and surreal.

Haha, I'm glad to know it's public knowledge now. I told my parents immediately after you told me, and then I thought, "omg, what if I wasn't supposed to tell anyone yet?" But then I also couldn't keep my big mouth shut at work... I had to explain that my ridiculous grin has been about becoming and auntie in a few months.

S - I figured you'd tell. :) It's fine. The internet is basically the last place I advertised the news. Didn't want to say anything too early.

Lara - Thanks! I'm quite excited.
