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.
Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think
it was bad; it might have been Latin.

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

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
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!

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.
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.

Phew on an easy fix, but, straw, camel, back. I'm pretty sure a meltdown was not out of proportion. Glad it was a minor fix.

Huh, I might have to look into sushi. I generally don't eat fish, but I don't mind suspending that rule while pregnant, and have been thinking it might be a good idea to have some fish occasionally, for all the nutritional benefits. I'm not even sure I knew there was such a thing as cooked-fish sushi! Thanks for the tip.
Mostly I'm looking for fairly bland but fresh-tasting foods that won't make me too thirsty. Melon sounds really good, actually. I'm also craving avocado tacos like crazy. Thank god I can still eat avocados!

I'm so glad it happened at home. But Kristen saw it. So I'm a little humiliated.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
DUDE! It's Kristen. That's family. There is no humiliation. Unconditional LOVE!

Because books.
Allyson, you have no idea how many times I've melted down because, like, my toast burned. Seriously. It's okay.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Hope you find some good foods you can tolerate, Kate!
Unless I pass this illness onto EVERYONE.
I vote you pass it on to the consultants. Or P from ORS.
Allyson, totally not out of proportion.

Avocado and cucumber rolls are vegetarian and will also provide you with the all-important pickled ginger.
I'm also craving avocado tacos like crazy.
Ha! With Dylan, I basically had morning sickness the entire 40 weeks and ate as little as possible. With Aeryn, all I wanted to do was eat Mexican food ALL THE TIME.
Allyson, with all the misery that car has put you through lately, I don't blame you one bit for being at the end of your rope.
