OMG. and now he's messaging me again. First a long, florid apology. then "why aren't you upset with me" when i thanked him for the apology and wished him the best. What, i'm supposed to stomp my feet and pitch a fit via email? Over someone i barely know? I should really go to bed now and stop using up further mental process on this.

Better luck next time, erin_o. I'm convinced not all men suck, I've just never met them. So, I live with my BFF and we talk dirty to each other. My daughter laughs and my brother freaks out.
Steph, thank you for that link. I registered for eShakti and now have a $30 GC to spend. I love the look of all the dresses I clicked on and the fact you can customize! Genius.

My blue and white polka-dotted dress that I wore in the pinup photos is from there, and I can say that the measurements are true. And a lot of their dresses have pockets, which is THE BEST.

I am also superstitious about showers before the baby is born, I thought I was crazy.
That's the Jewish tradition. Lots of people don't even have any baby stuff in the house until the baby is born -- most stores that sell baby stuff in places with a decent-sized Jewish population will have a program where you can buy all the stuff you need and they'll keep it at the store, then you call them after the baby is born and they'll deliver it.

I am also superstitious about showers before the baby is born, I thought I was crazy. I have so many posts I want to "like" since sj made her awesome announcement, though!
I can blame my grandmother for all my weird superstitions. And thank you!

Somehow my Italian grandmother adopted the Jewish tradition. Although, I'm not really opposed to buying stuff and having it in the house ahead of time. I am, however, really weird about calling a baby by the name the parents choose before it is born. Even if the parents are doing it, I can't bring myself to do it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We didn't want folks calling our kids by their actual names before they were born either, but that had more to do with all the unsolicited advice people wanted to give about better names than the ones we'd chosen.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
NOT SHOCKINGLY, my mother was the WORST about that, Burrell.
She was Not Fond of my name choices, and kept suggesting shit like Sandee. (Two Es)

We're not telling anyone, even our parents, the names we picked. So they get no opinions.

Oh, they'll give them. Even if you don't share, they'll give them.
It's just probably easier to ignore if you don't tell them.
