Galloping Cats

Decision May 29, 2008

I wishy-washed and flip-flopped for a few days before deciding that I could have the patience to be cautious just a teeny bit longer and wait for ovulation in the right side, whenever that may be. If the next “trying” cycle is not a success, I figure I can re-evaluate at that time. So I called yesterday and scheduled an appointment for June 9. Then, lying in bed last night, I re-counted and had to call back this morning to reschedule for the 3rd. Oops.

I have to say, it doesn’t hurt to read about just how terribly my newly pregnant blogging friends are feeling right now. I’m sorry. It’s not that I want any of them to feel badly. It’s just that it’s such a relief that I don’t feel like that at this moment. I do realize that if I ever get what I want, I will simply be behind them on the misery curve but for now, I’m appreciating not being on that curve at all.

 

As if I wasn’t feeling old enough May 29, 2008

I had drinks with an old friend from my first job last night, after not seeing each other for at least four years. He looked great– better than ever.

Back in the day, he was a notorious cheapskate. Even after I got him a job (in bad economic times, mind you), he thanked me with a single slice of pizza.

Last night, when the bill came, he dove for it and paid while I sat there in shock.

He’s all grown up!

Weird.
