Emmett just calls her Sweetie.
Awwww.
Msbelle, I am putting myself in austerity mode for at least a month or two too.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I almost never wear makeup and don't feel bad about it.
Before the wedding, I went to a local makeup store with a friend and tried out a bunch of stuff, and when I looked in the mirror I thought, "I don't look like myself at all." I looked pretty, I guess, just not like me. I think it was mostly the foundation and powder that freaked me out. My skin just looked plastic. So we tried a few different things and I found something I liked OK, but I still barely used any of it on the day of the wedding, and my lipstick had all worn off by the time we sat down for dinner. And I love the way I look in those pictures.
ION, I am so sick of eating peanut butter & crackers & bananas for lunch, but cannot figure out anything else that sounds appealing right now, at least nothing that can be procured easily. Blah.

Luckily, I live in a higher (maybe highest?) part of the city. However, I still suspect I have an appointment with the shopvac tonight. Just a damned lot of water.

Because books.
Eesh, sara. I don't think we have any water left in the basement here, but the whole house feels damp.
Kate, what about crackers and mild cheese? A yogurt and a apple?
ION, Sgt. Pepper's is on Ovation right now, AISFG. Steven Martin just showed up and Donald Pleasance is wearing a toupee.

Amy, my lactose intolerance seems to have gotten worse since I got pregnant, though I've slowly been reintroducing cheese, with some success. So yogurt doesn't really appeal right now (though normally I love it and have no problems with it), but I do have an apple! Good call.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm at work. There was a battery short ON MY KEY REMOTE.
No big. Put new battery in. I remain cautiously optimistic.
I did cry hysterically when the car wouldn't start this morning. I'm so ashamed.

Allyson, I totally would have done the same. When I saw your post today about the car not starting my jaw literally dropped. You have been through the wringer!

Oh, I remember those days. By the time Dylan was born I never wanted to look at a saltine or a banana ever again.
I remember melon being pretty easy to tolerate. Mainly when I was pregnant I wanted food I couldn't smell, so it had to be really really cold. Sushi was another good option (with cooked fish, natch), especially once I realized that pickled ginger is a preggo stomach's best friend.
