Pregnancy, Nerd Jr-POLL! and links...
OMG! Can it be over soon? *sigh* Yes, I am talking pregnancy and Nerd Jr... The little one is stealing ALL my energy! ALL! *sigh* I get nothing done around here, and it frustrates the hell out of me. Thank gawd peting73 is such a patient and understanding man. And slightly insane. For the record, I love that man. And I am quite convinced he'll rock as a dad.
According to midwifes/nurses that I've talked to during all my checkups Nerd Jr is scheduled to be born 6th of August... That's in three days... SO SOON! Goodness... Of course, one never knows. In the end of the day, the only one to decide is Nerd Jr herself/himself. Here in Sweden you go on checkups constantly during these last weeks, and if you go 2 weeks past the due date, you have to go to the maternity ward at the hospital and they'll start up the delivery with medication. So. Sometime between now and the 20th of August it can happen at ANY TIME!
Meantime, I am clumsier then ever. My legs are swollen like you wouldn't believe. Thank gawd for mom lending me her compression stockings or I would have been even more handicapped, dammit... I have no energy and feel like just one big blob. :-/
NERD JR! MOM TALKING! GET OUT OF THERE! I WANNA MEET YOU AND GET MY BODY BACK, DAMMIT!
And still I have no HUGE belly really. Nerd Jr has made herself/himself comfy quite far in my body... which makes bending over quite a chore. And of course that makes me drop things on the floor ALL THE TIME! :-P *annoyed at this*
Anyway, the most important thing is that we've been told on all them checkups that Nerd Jr is doing perfectly fine in there all set for birth with her/his head down as it should be. Steady and strong heart-beats and everything.
I've been a bit worried about all my scars from my Endometriosis and from all the surgery I've had to do because of it... not to mention the myoma on the side of my utures. That all of that would be an hindrance in giving birth naturally. But apparently, down there? Nothing is in the way. :-) No scars, no myomas no nothing. So should be all fine! THANK GAWD! My stomach has been cut up enough! No need to add more scars to it if one can help it!
So now all I have to do is wait... and wait... and wait. *sigh*
peting73 and his mom is quite convinced that Nerd Jr is a girl. Mom and my best friend spicehobbit is convinced Nerd Jr is a boy. Me? I have NO IDEA! So I am stuck in the middle right there.
So I made a poll! :-D Polls are fun, right? :-) We'll see later down the line who wins. *grin*
Poll Nerd Jr Poll!
According to peting73 there should be a prize down the line for those who get it right... No, I have NO idea what the man talks about! X-D So we'll see, I suppose. :-)
Talking off Nerd Jr, she/he got a gift today! :-D All the way from Canada! A seriously cute Montreal shirt from rule_number_7! Thank you SO MUCH, luv! :-D It is SERIOUSLY cute! And it WILL be used! :-D Take my word for it. :-)
To end this post I'll share a few more links. I always seem to collect links when I am surfing the net. "Oh, I gotta share this on my LJ!" X-D Anyone else have that problem? Finding stuff they just wanna share? I do all the time. :-P So here goes!
This walrus made my day the other day! :-D He sure got his rhythm down, doesn't he? ;-)
Cute, wasn't he? :-D
This vid also rocked my socks off! Seriously! Not only is it very professionally done, it is cute, funny and the lyrics... Just WINS! Don't we all want to sing this to random haters when needed? ;-) I sure know I would love to at times!
Another fun thing I found was... this review of 50 Shades of Grey... Yes. THAT book. The Twilight-fanfic-book. That makes all the people actually living and breathing a proper BDSM relationship RAGE like you wouldn't believe. After reading this epic review though, I feel... I kinda have to read it. Just to experience how epically bad it can get. But I won't pay for it, oh hell no! Libraries, here I come.
Katrina Lumsden's review of Fifty Shades of Grey on Goodreads
It's hilarious! And all the gifs! Just read it! :-D
Talking about authors, have one that is actually one of the best authors out there... even if the man is dead. JRR Tolkien. Anyone who stands up to the Nazis during WWII wich such style and such excellent use of words... Got my vote as one HELL of a rocking author! :-D Apparently the Nazis wanted to make sure Mr Tolkien REALLY was of arish decent before agreeing to publish his book The Hobbit in 1938. And Tolkien? Well, he proceeded with ripping them a new one... just the way a proper englishman would. :-D
Letters of Note: Tolkiens letter to the publishers in Nazi Germany.
Also, also! I want to play this game... It looks so WONDERFULLY creepy! And so cute at the same time! I love that combination! :-D Among the Sleep... A baby and his (her?) teddybear trying to survive the things that go bump in the night... It is so so CUTE!
I really really love the look of that game...
Right, so... That would be all for today. :-) I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL weekend!
