I just scrolled through Facebook and saw FOUR more people talking about babies in their tummies.
Also in the last week I’ve had a half dozen OB nurses ask me why I didn’t have kids.
I quit all the things.

Yes, I am still around on tumblr! I just don’t post much to this account because nothing interesting happens in my life outside of medicine. But I do ogle over the pretty picture you post.
My friend called me yesterday (we haven’t talked in almost 6 months) and left a message saying “I have some news to tell you”. So when I called her, the first words out of my mouth were “so you’re pregnant, huh”. She goes, “how did you guess?!” Duh, you haven’t called me in forever. You got good news to share. 2+2 = 4. Hello.
This is a week after another friend calls to say “just wanted to let you know I’m dating someone now”.
Do they expect me to take this news like I would take the news of a death in the family? Why are they so cautious with their news? Why would I be sad that something good is happening in their lives? Geez.
You know your friends think you’re a miserable single person
with fragile emotions when…
They call you to tell you’re they’re pregnant or dating someone awesome because they “didn’t want you to find out through Facebook and be upset.”
Really folks?

Dear target,
2 racks of muumuus does not a plus section make.
Am I the only girl in America who wants to buy clothes that are made of something more substantial than toilet paper?
I put on my big girl panties today and mowed my grass all by myself today when I got off work. It didn’t take long once I figured out what I was doing. Except my mower (yes brand new, delivered today) wouldn’t restart after I emptied the bag the first time and I thought it was broken, but then my neighbor fixed it by just pulling the cord harder than I did (I was sort of scared to pull too hard and break it). Anywho, I think I did a pretty good job. Along with my mower I got a weedeater/edger and used it to trim back all the ivy lining my driveway. I did it this summer with garden shears and it took 2 solid afternoons. Today it took all of 10 minutes. And it looks prettier. +1 point for technology I guess.

Just thought that warranted sharing.
