The black bean ones are good with a little of the TJ's salsa on top with cheese.
I don't know what the carb impact would be, but those make awesome Lazy Tacos. Break it in half, drop it in a taco shell with salsa and cheese and voila.
Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
huh ... I always thought the sleep deprivation came after the baby was born ....
I think it's common both before and after. Before thanks to being uncomfortable and needing to pee a lot, after thanks to teeny tiny human that needs tending.

My impression has been that, if all goes well, it's about 22 years of sleep deprivation.
Googling tells me some people have a paradoxical reaction to Symbicort, in that it makes them cough. I laugh, because I have a paradoxical reaction to almost any medication. I'm just on a steroid inhaler. My asthma makes me short of breath on exertion, but sometimes sneaks up on me by just making me tired.

Not necessarily! A lot of it is the luck of the draw, but kids do learn to sleep eventually. (I realize you're also talking about worrying about them once they're big enough to do things like drive around by themselves at night with a carful of friends. We've still got a few more years before we reach that stage...)
Still, I will just say, if I had gone three years without a good night's sleep, I don't think I would have been so eager to have a second kid.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
sj, you are going through a super tough time and this is a safe place to vent. I really wish things were easier for you.
Fred Pete, I hope you and the doc get it figured out soon!
I totally levelled up in Adulting today. Got out of work at lunch (no work and I'm not going to dick around on company dime when I can dick around at home, paycheck be damned). Came home, fixed lunch, and started watching Outlander while I ate it. Finished the episode while crafting throws for the parade that is still over six months away. Here's the super awesome part, imagine sound effects and maybe a cascading coin sound: I stopped after one episode, and despite website annoyingness and stressful decisions switched my car insurance to USAA, cancelled my old insurance, and opened a damn Roth IRA account. Finally.
And now I'm off to yoga.
Go me.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The school where I interviewed last week wants me to come for a campus interview. I really hope this one works out.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Go, smonster! You win at Adulting today.
I mainlined a bunch of episodes of Dig today as part of the effort to clean off the DVR before we get rid of cable. While also flattening out the six boxes of crumpled newspaper that the tea things were wrapped in so that they fit in the recycle bin.

Ginger, Thing 2 (aka Seabiscuit, not to be confused with Liese's Seabiscuit) is due July 9th. It's been a relatively easy pregnancy so far, but I am definitely getting to the point where my walk is more of a waddle, and it's hard to find a comfortable position for sleeping. (It does seem cruel that when you most want to tank up on sleep in preparation for the arrival of a newborn, your body conspires against you.)
