ONE LINE = NOT PREGNANT

I am the regular 28-day kinda girl, but last month I threw a gasket or an o-ring or something because I only had a 21-day cycle. Now I am two days late for the 28-day thing. This never happens. Last time I had the whole 28-21 drama was when I got knocked up with The Girl. Apparently, the 21-day thing was the implantation of the kid into the womb thing (or some sort of gyno hooey). So I started stressing a bit. And I started saying things like, "I can't be - my boobs aren't sore and I'm not barfing." Extreme worry washed over me today when one gal in my mommy group said, "That could just mean it's a boy. Less nausea with boys!" To which I quickly grabbed the kid and the dog and headed to the drug store on the way home. Hubby came home for lunch so I peed on the stick. Only one line, folks. No sibling for The Girl. And I was VERY HAPPY!!! Because let's face it...who wants to turn 40 in Vegas in late August while six months pregnant? Not me. Whew.

Yes, 40 in Vegas in August DOES sound wretched, so congratulations on not being pregnant.

And thanks for the comment on my blog earlier. I DO need a break, and books plus coffee sound divine. If I could just figure out how to work it...
