I have been working very late two days in a row now, and tomorrow will be another very long day. Today I didn’t “finish” until 11pm – and that was only because my back was hurting and I needed to eat something and I had done enough to tide me (and my client) over until tomorrow. I am really looking forward to Thursday, a guilt-free family day of no work. (Well, actually I do have to go into work for an hour or two, but that’s easy mindless stuff, not the head-banging design stuff that gives me designers block and coder fury. If you ever hear a far-off, faint shrieking of, “Why is there a $%!%#! gap there?!? Why, why, WHY??!”… that would be me, screaming in frustration at my browser.)

I did take a break today to run to Walmart. I had to return the humidifier I bought, since it didn’t appear to be working at all. And of course that model was all sold out, so I had to pay more for a different kind… it’s the warm mist type. This one at least works. Den has it set up on his nightstand, actually… he has a slight cold or something, and that combined with the cold winter air has the poor guy in pretty rough shape. Hopefully the humidifier helps him out. (And quelling the snoring would be nice, for my benefit!)

Also bought some bras. Kel was telling me that Walmart has a good selection of non-underwire bras, so while I was there I tried some on. She was right! I found two bras that are less than $10 each and fit really nicely. And yes, a 38C. I could probably use a 40C, but didn’t see any. I will not be buying any bras from Motherhood ever again. When I need nursing bras I’ll buy them online from Motherwear. I am really friggin irritated that they can’t measure me properly, AND won’t exchange anything once it’s bought. Granted I *should* grow into the D cups, but I bet I’ll outgrow the band size first. But that’s not the point, now is it? I expect them to measure me correctly!!

I also bought a cute black maternity shirt. I wear size small maternity tops. This is amusing to me. I’m not exactly a skinny minny or anything, like I used to be. What the heck do the skinny girls wear?? Den wants me to wear it on Thanksgiving, which I am planning on doing, so hopefully I’ll get some good photos of pregnant me! ;)

Did I mention we had snow here today? Yeah. Snow. I “eek”ed out loud when I walked into the living room this morning. Where did THAT come from?? Also, I realized that I overlooked my winter coats when it comes to maternity wear. I never considered they wouldn’t fit. But suddenly I can’t button them even if I wanted to. Hrm. My belly may get a little cold this winter. I don’t want to spend a lot of money, but it appears I’ll need something warm to accomodate!
