an RV adventure and the horrible truth about clowns

Today, we are being brave!
Today we are loading up the new RV and going for a long drive to Denver to spend Thanksgiving with Grampa Dick and Jean. It will take us approx. 20 hours of driving. We of course are not driving straight through. *THAT* would be maddness I tell you. We are taking the dog and the baby (duh, gotta take the baby).
I lost the cord from the camera to the computer so I do not have any pictures at the moment. I promise when I locate the cord, there will be oodles of pictures.
Also I am going to try some remote blogging from the cell phone, wish us luck!!!!

Clowns,

Damn Clowns....
I started taking Tabitha to Gymboree last Saturday. I hate it.
She
Loves it.
It is that effing clown.
Gymbo is his name, and being sickly sweet is his game.
He gives all the babies a kiss goodbye and a hug. Tabitha claps her hands and squeals with delight. I want to strangle it.
dead.
dead.
dead clown
Maybe I need to make a dead clown Haiku.
Is it
5
7
5?

ACK, now I need to go look up Haiku...All this going to Gymboree has atrophied my brain to the point that I cannot even remember how to DO a haiku. At least I remember how to spell hiaku.....oh
no
It has killed that brain cell too.

2 under 2 under 2

HOLY SCHMIDT
NO WAY
OMG
OMG OMG
OMG
OMG
OMG

*Mouth hangs open*
Goggle

WHAT?

How on earth?...Well, I know how but stammer stammer huh?
I had been feeling a little weird lately. David took me out to dinner and I told him, "Dont be alarmed but I am going to do a pregnancy test in the morning."
I had hives all over my face and back. This has only happened to me 2 times in my life. Once when I ate lobster and when I was pregnant. I hadnt eaten any lobster so, logical conclusion right?
The next morning I pee'd in a cup and dug around in my cabinet. I had to have a PG test around in there somewhere. I was after the obsesso girl in my previous life as a person in infertility treatment. Sure enough, I found one. Dip it in, go back to what I was doing. I came back to it 3 minutes later and screamed, HOLY SHIT DAVID, GET IN HERE *NOW*. He came running in and I brandished this plastic stick like a sword and said, "Look at this!!" The look on his face was priceless.
Astonished, Panicked, Mouth Hanging Open Goggle. Then we both started laughing hysterically. I couldnt decide whether to laugh cry or both.
I was going to have another baby. When we did the math, that made Tabitha 15 months when the new one was going to be born. 2 babies under 2 years old. Oh. My. God. I had to leave for work with a very full head. I called my doc and told her that I wanted a blood test and a prescription for Prometrium (progesterone supplement to prevent miscarriage due to my historically low hormone levels). I went in for the blood test. It had to be the worst phelbotomist in the history of my adult life. She was digging around in there like she was panning for gold all under the guise of not wanting to 'hurt me'. I wonder if the white knuckles on the table tipped her off that she should try to find another vein?
I was a little bit naughty and checked the box at the top of the lab slip
'patient waiting' so that I would get the results faster. THEN began the long wait.
I called every 3 hours for the rest of the night. Finally at 9pm they told me not to call back until morning. 7am, still no answer dammit. I called on my way to work 7:30 I was told that they had an answer for me but I had to wait for a nurse.
So I waited, and waited. Grew a few more grey hairs and I waited.
Finally, the nurse came on and she told me that the blood test was negative. My beta number was under 2. I was not pregnant at all.
It is amazing how your whole world can change on a dime and I was actually sad. After everything, I was actually sad about not being pregnant after all. I thought maybe just maybe I just magically got pregnant on my own and that I wasnt broken after all.

Guess that even after everything, I still am a hope addict.

The World According to Tabitha

1. You WILL come pick me up when I cry, for if you do not I will wake the dead.
2. Sleep is for the weak. I dont care what you say, you cannot make me sleep if I do not want to.
3. I think that it is funny to stick my heel in poopy diapers and then grab for my toes. That funny face you make when you get it in your hair REALLY makes me laugh.
4. Doggie is for torturing. That is what she gets for barking when I am sleeping.
5. WHAT?! I wasn't really sleeping. I was just resting my eyes.
6. All colorful computer cables are for me to eat. Dont you dare try to stop me!
7. As soon as I start crawling, I'll get you! AND your little dog too.
8. You have no power against me when I smile at you. **GRIN**
9. That booger STAYS PUT. No touching it or I will really scream.
10. If you look in my mouth again to see if I have teeth, I will bite you when I get some. I will notify you when said teeth arrive.
