let there be internet

we finally have internet at home! now i can email, blog, shop - do all of the things that i used to do at work when i was supposed to be working! yay. they are pretty short-staffed in the phx office so i don't have time to do those things during the day now. but we are back online at home now, and i'm ready to blog like crazy. i wanted to post pics of the belly but of course the battery to our camera is dead so i can't transfer them until tomorrow.

and we have cable tv too! and a phone! crazy, i know. i am sure most of you are wondering how i ever talked my anti-anything hollywood/mainstream/normal husband into getting tv. well, it basically boiled down to the fact that i told him he'd have to sit up and entertain me as i nurse the little bean at all hours of the night, and he caved pretty quickly. i felt like i probably needed something, if even qvc, to look at during those times, so we decided to get cable. i have to say i am not so impressed, though. there seems to be a lot of crap on tv and most of it just sucks you in. the more channels you have, the more time it sucks out of your life. i do like it for the amazing race, the bachelor, maybe a little flavor of love, but i don't think i will be watching the tube too much other than late at night. i guess that means i will be all caught up on infomercials, public access, televangelists, and porn once the bean arrives.

speaking of which, he will be here in 7 and a half weeks. did you hear that? 53 days, my friends. i guess you could say i am a little freaked out. but also really excited. i think he is ready to see the world. he moves around so much! like all morning, a little in the afternoon, and definitely all night. as soon as i lie down to sleep he gets really jumpy. not sure how i feel about that. one time i went to the dr. and the nurse told me that their patterns in life tend to track those in the womb. shit. i guess i am never sleeping again. when he moves, my whole stomach moves. sometimes i feel like it is literally the scene from alien where the alien busts out of that guy's stomach. or maybe the scene from spaceballs where the alien busts out and entertains lone starr and barf with a little song and dance. i'd like to think that the bean wouldn't kill us and all of humanity once he breaks loose. he definitely seems more of the musical type.
