Well there are several people here in the shared office space have decided that they should listen out loud to Barak Obama’s speech from last night. This is beginning to piss me off, not because of pollitics but I because I think that when you are in a public area, you should a) not do stuff to annoy those around you and b) don’t bring politics into things. I’m thinking of play some old Nixon speeches just to balance things out. 
I was finally able to take a shower yesterday and what a difference that made. I felt rejuvenated and like a new person. A new person with two sets of stitches in a sensitive area, but a new person never the less. After the shower I was able to remove some of the extra bandages around the incisions and that really helped out a lot. Aside from about an hour, I was almost my old self again. In fact I’m going into the office in a few minutes.
One of the other good signs was that I was able to finally sleep on my side and stay in bed the entire night. As I mentioned in a previous post (I think) I wasn’t able to sleep on my side the first few nights and could only sleep on my back. This wasn’t good for my sleeping and I wound up getting up at around 2:30am to try and sleep on the couch. Thankfully, that didn’t happen last night.
So the upshot is that I’m getting better slowly but surely, which is frustrating me to no end since I think I should be at 100% already.

Hey, I not trying to toot our own horn - it the result I got from the quiz. Give it a try - it’s fun.
Recently, while waiting in the doctors office (isn’t that part of all our IF lives), I picked up an old Conceive magazine. One article spoke about creating a perfect bedroom oasis including purchasing high thread count sheets - good for fertility. I’ve always wanted to get luxurious sheets and after reading the article I thought what better time to purchase some. After all it’s part of the fertility “cure” right? All in the name of conception, he he.
Rivky came along with me to the linen store and I asked her to help me decide which set was softest. We finally selected one and I slept on them for the first time last night. Wow, that was delicious. That’s the only adjective that comes to mind!
I asked Aaron so how’d you like the new sheets. His answer: they’re sheets. Such a man.
Of course, now Rivky wants new sheets…
Where is Carl Spakler when you need him??
My dad sent this to me a while ago and I think it’s very funny.
I got this meme idea from Karen at Pediascribe, thought I’d give it a try.
This meme is the 10 Things You’ll Never Hear Me Say:
1. One child, that’s more than enough for me!
2. Doctors are so wise and I trust them completely.
3. Aaron, you haven’t gone on a business trip in such a long time.
4. Labor, piece of cake. Don’t know what all you woman are complaining about.
5. I just love washing dishes and changing the garbage.
6. I think I look too thin today.
7. Let’s move to England (or another place it always rains). I love all that rain and fog. It always cheers me right up.
8. Too bad I no longer work in Manhattan. I just miss riding the trains and 10 hour work days so much.
9. What are we going to do with all this extra money. It’s always such a problem.
10. Rivky, I love the creative mess you’ve made today. Let’s never clean it up and just admire it every time we pass it.
I’m tagging Portia P - big congrats on her recent BFP!, Mel, and Kirby.

Thinking that another list of all the bad things that are in fast food from trans fats to too many calories, I started to tune him out.
But Tim insisted that I had to hear this one, so I kept listening.
Eating too much fast food can cause infidelity.
Infidelity?! I was shocked. This appeared to be a new societal burden placed at the feet of fast food.
Laughing, Tim said yes, infidelity, but she meant infertility.
Infidelity. Infertility. Sure, I always get those two mixed up too.
Maybe I’m the only one that found this funny but because I have a friend that got infertility and infidelity confused in a conversation we once had about the podcast.
