when 18 days feels like countless years

Its been 18 days since my last post.

feels like years.

A ton of things have happened, some of which I can blog about some which I cannot. Thus the quandry of your blog being public. And when I say pubic I’m saying - your family actually reads it. Which still surprises me - Hi Dad! Mom, Auntie, and aunties co workers! My sister reads this as well, and I guess we’ll start with her.

My sister is pregnant as well.

Okay so i lov emy husband and I was scared for him. See he has’nt gotten a good nights sleep in probably three years. he has sleep apnea. We went to a sleep study place the other day so they could check for it - he ended up wired up like neo from the matrix, but they confirmed all of my predictions and they are setting him up witha sleep machine, Anybody know a good ear nose and throat doctor?
I thought I was gonna get this super night of sleep as my log sawing husband was strapped into a bed fourty mintues away, and ironically the kid was with her Granny, guess what? i got NO sleep.
woke up like - this is entirely too quiet.
both Jerry and the nurse got a kick out of that. who knew I needed the big lug to get any decent rest.

had our latest Dr’s apt - kid is doing fine, its a party in my belly. Next apointment is in two weeks, then on april 19th we figure out who we are bringing into the world - boy or girl.

My very delayed Greys Post…

yes this is my greys anatomy post. there are many topics to cover.

normal_group2.jpgright now immediately I want to voice my disapointment and disgust with the NAACP for giving Isaiah Washington an Image Award.. Come on? Seriously? Then again this is the same group who gave one to R.Kelly the year all hell broke loose with his video tape saga, which is still unresolved. So clearly this isn’t really about the image of colored people, but the image we wish you would have or maybe if we pretend like your shyt don’t stink maybe it won’t. I don’t know - I’m just pretty sure a image award was not the way to go here. Not that I think firing him was the way to go, I just don’t hink he should be celebrated. *just a note, if that had been my daughter they wouldn’t have R Kelly on trial - I would be on trial for some Samuel L Jackson “Time to Kill” type shyt. but that has nothing to do with Greys Anatomy now does it?  Moving on..

THE NEW HUSBAND STORE

A store that sells new husbands has just opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a new husband. At the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!”

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 - “These men Have Jobs.”

The second floor sign reads:

“Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.”

The third floor sign reads:

“Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids and are Drop-dead Gorgeous.”

“Wow,” she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:

“Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous and Help With Housework.”

“Oh, mercy me!” she exclaims, “I can hardly stand it!” Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:

“Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with housework and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.”

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the sign reads:

“Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please.

Thank you for shopping at the New Husband Store.”

To avoid gender bias accusations, the store’s owner also opens a New Wives’ store just across the street……….

The first floor has wives that love sex.!
The second floor has wives that love sex and have money.
The third through sixth floors have never been visited.

Classic….

When your husband is a orge…

or something.

alter jerry Look, I don’t know what he is. he sorta looks like this guy only way more like an ox and and gorillas love child. He only turns into this thing for a few hours every night, sometimes after I am asleep, mostly during the waneing hours of the night. Especially now since i am preggers I sleep way way earlier than him. You see my husband plays WoW, or World of Warcraft.

My husband as i became aware this weekend, is way more than the casual gamer he sorta made himself out to be.

You know how they say, you spend the first part of your cortship and marriage on a “date” with the other person, and then they say you relax and your true you comes on out to scratch sweaty balls and spill beer on the couch? yeah well my husbands Al bundy alter ego is a gamer. Straight up geek proud podcast listenin’, twenty sided die rollin, DM’in, comic readin’, imported beer drinkin, Xbox 360 playin, RPG loving, gamer.
