Sciatic nerve -- pain in the arse!

When I was hatching Aron, he too gave my sciatic nerve fits. I had a lot of back pain with Aron, and leg pain, too. I have leg pain and headaches this time. My right leg functions about as well as a tree branch. I feel like I'm just dragging it around looking for a campfire to toss it into.

Speaking of my first baby, he started first grade on Wednesday. You may recall we decided to hold him back a year. I think that was a good decision; he seems to be well-adjusted socially and academically.

Second baby is quite an interesting character these days. I asked him if he's going to be a big boy when the baby gets here, and he says no, he'll be the baby, too. I told him as long as he keeps going potty like a big boy, I'll call him whatever he likes.

It's about commitment.

Have you seen that book about the couple who committed to have sex every day of the year? The only thing I do on a daily basis is brush my teeth and bitch.

But, I would like to try to start posting daily again. I really do love to write. I submitted a document to the court last week that reportedly (source: judge's assistant) made the judge "almost" cry. Damn. Man up, will ya?

Whew, these hormones are brutal. To others.

Last time, I SWEAR.

By the way, and I do apologize for not posting this earlier...

I am 18 weeks pregnant.

Been too busy to scan pictures of the little guy (or girl!), but all the appendages are in the right place, according to the ultrasounds.

We go again on Sept. 8 to find out if it's a boy or girl. I wish I had the self-control to wait to find out, but, dern it, I'm a brat and I want what I want when I want it.

And, sorry it took me so long to tell you all.
