I've been busy
Where to start?
Well, the coolest news is that I'm pregnant. I'll be 11 weeks as of Saturday (which is totally CRAZY considering I just had my IUD taken out on July 9th), and I'm due in mid April.
That explains my vomiting, fatigue, headaches, and general hermit-like behavior of late..
I also had some kind of crazy illness a few weeks ago (swine flu??) that had me really worried, but I seemed to pull through okay, and I kept my temperature at a reasonable level through taking lots of cool baths and even *gasp* resorting to taking low doses of tylenol.
and I'm losing my job, which isn't surprising, since that ALWAYS happens when you tell your boss you're knocked up. I'm not fretting about it too much. I was planning on quitting after the baby's born anyway, but I was hoping to have paid off the midwife, bought the babystuff I need (not much, mostly just some cloth diapers and a ridiculously expensive carseat), and saved a bit of money by then. At least they gave me 5 weeks notice, so I'll have 6 more paychecks to work towards that end.
Hopefully the temp agency will have something else for me, and if not, I can try to get a job at Whole Foods down the street (a job that comes with a discount on groceries, w00t!) or something.
