We are going to look at the baby today at 2:45. Exciting! He has been pretty active lately, but the movements are still on the soft side. I definitely feel them and know it's him, but DW hasn't been able to feel him yet. She is so excited to feel some kicks - is cute. She also keeps saying, "Can they just give us the baby already???" Hahahahaha! It's so sweet seeing her getting into Mommy-mode.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

I'm skipping to post:
5,147 words. 23 sources, not including references to sources I didn't quoted directly. I now understand to where 7 months of my social life went to.
Yes, the last paper as a freshwoman, and the one I was so excited about, is now complete (except for the additional editing I'll probably have tomorrow).
I have tears in my eyes, y'guys.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I know that I’m a bit … jaded … when it comes to my mother’s treatment of me, so can I ask for an opinion on something?
My sister’s best friend (SBF) and SBF’s boyfriend came up to the cabin over the Fourth. She has always been considered a part of the family and is always welcome – open invitation per my parents. So the sleeping arrangements were: Brother and Fiancé in the camper (Fiancé might need her privacy, according to my mother). Sis and Husband on the futon (Husband cut the tip of his finger off and couldn’t sleep in a tent. That one I totally get.) Em and I in a tent. SBF and BF in a tent.
B&E are our (Joe and my) best friends. We are Godparents to each other’s oldest children. They just moved back to Michigan. My family (us, my parents, my sister and her husband) are going up to the cabin over Labor Day. I called and asked my mom if B&E and their kids could come up. I was told, “No – there isn’t any room.” I said, “They could stay in the camper, Jess and Matt on the futon, and Joe, Em, and I in a tent. “No. Your sister needs the camper. She needs to get some rest.” (Jess is having her third thyroid scan in a couple of weeks.) I say Jess didn’t mention that when her and I talked about it on Friday. “It doesn’t matter. That’s how it’s going to be. There’s no room. No.”
Am I being childish in that I want to call fucking shenanigans? Or is this more bullshit favoritism of my sister that my mother is so gloriously famous for? Mind – I have NEVER asked for anyone to come up before during a family holiday. Ever.
I get that it's her cabin and she gets to have final say, but I guess I'm sick to effing death of being the one who always has to hear "no".

You know me so well. But right now, it's shower, dinner (don't ask me when's the last time I ate, I don't know), about 5 hours of sleep (ugh!), and then saying goodbye to the paper that's been on my mind for the past 9 or 10 months.

Our wings are not tired.
Aims, is there room for another tent for B&E family? Is there a tent around for them to use?

That's just really assholish behavior from your designer. Is it anyone I know?Doubt it. He's out of NY. Mind you, NOT a New Yorker, just a transplant. NY'ers are far better folks. Don't get me started on some of the shit he's pulling.

in Facebook I have a friend request from a Moha Idrissi. Is that anyone from in here? No mutual friends. And profile is rather empty.

There is. But, difficult to do with two kids under three who still needs dark and quiet spaces for naps. Hence, the ease of the camper. I think she's using the space issue as an out and just doesn't want them there. Which, it being their cabin, is fine. But Joe and I are going to choose to go spend the weekend at B&E's house.
Edited to correct my heinous mis-use of "there".

But Joe and I are going to choose to go spend the weekend at B&E's house.I was thinking that very thought, but wasn't sure how to verbalize it.
