A little bit of this, a little bit of that.

1. You know how it's a lousy idea to go grocery shopping on an empty stomach, except maybe with a detailed shopping list? Well, it turns out it's a bad idea to go grocery shopping when you're pregnant, too, regardless of whether you're hungry at that moment or not.
   
   
2. I think the bank issue is resolved. Well, almost resolved. Definitely not as bad as it looked, anyway.
   
   
3. A HIGH-LEVEL DREAMWORKS EXECUTIVE CALLED MY HUSBAND TO ASK FOR THE URL OF MY DOOM REVIEW TO READ BEFORE HE MEETS WITH THE FILM'S DIRECTOR.
   
   
4. Yes, ALL CAPS were absolutely necessary on that previous item.
   
   
5. I burned the roof of my mouth today. This is of the good, because it means I ate lunch at Albano's pizzeria, where they serve actual New York-style pizza, unlike all the other places that claim to serve New York-style pizza.
   
   
6. Mmmmmm, pudding.
   
   
7. We celebrated Halloween (on Halloween itself) by carving fake pumpkins. Fake because they last forever and because no one had real ones. I also bought tons of decorations at 70% off. And a POUND OF YARN, which is acrylic, which I am not fond of, but I don't care because A WHOLE POUND FOR $3.00! I'm making a baby blanket, because I can. I neglected, of course, to buy circular needles, so I am squishing it onto straights, which is HILARIOUS.
   
   
8. Yesterday I had a headache so awful that I slept until 12:30 in the afternoon.
   
   
9. Did you ever see something on Wikipedia that you know is incorrect, but not bother fixing it because you just don't think the world deserves the correct information? Yeah.
   
   
10. Absolutely no one believes me, but I can feel the baby. I feel my uterus stretching, and I felt movement once.
    
    
11. Also, don't hate me, but the nausea went away at 8 weeks. Oh, I still get uneasy tummy when I'm hungry, but nothing like it was (which wasn't bad anyway).
    
    
12. There are ants in my pants. Wait...they're in the kitchen. My bad.
    
    
13. We ordered a turkey today! If you are in Los Angeles over Thanksgiving, you are probably invited. (If you are yucky or plan to steal any of my guests' identities, this offer is null and void.) RSVP required!

What's new with you?
