h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I must admit it is a very odd thing being pregnant
no-one really tells you what to expect
oh you get books and stuff but it seems so different when its actually real
like if someone had told me that i would occasionally step completely out of the world that rational people inhabit, long enough say for a pleasant stroll to the shops... i would have called them mad but its true...
i do feel sorry for Joe sometimes i think he must start wondering what to expect next
one of the main problems is that we are meant to be moving house, we're not entirely sure when but it is in the pipe work so to speak so i want to put off getting stuff for as long as possible, but the longer time goes on, the less likely it seems that we will move before baby makes there appearance and the more i worry that i should just let the craziness take over and build a nursery at our current house, I mean i keep looking at cots and prams and people keep making funny ooohing noises and saying things like "oh that will be wonderful when your little one comes along" and i can only half heartedly agree because everything seems so up in the air i just want to cry
or hunt down the person in charge of moving us grab them by the neck tie shake them around and scream "YOU THINK ITS FUNNY KEEPING A FIVE MONTH PREGNANT WOMAN WAITING WHILE YOU REMEMBER WHERE YOU PUT THE PAPERWORK!!"
I should also get round to telling my uni tutors that i wont be in as much as they would like because its just not practical at the moment,
I currently have a circumference of about 38 inches (96.5cm) which isn't that bad really but i feel huge and i suppose in comparison to my normal rather slim figure that's not surprising, so eather the tutors haven't noticed or are to polite to say anything about my apparent weight gain over summer...
also I'm constantly tired and half the time the only thing that convinces me that i haven't just put on weight is the fact that baby moves around a lot when they feel like putting the effort in,
I have only just gotten over my complete aversion to chicken in that now i can eat small amounts of the stuff preferably in the form of balls wrapped in batter with an acompaning sauce
Junk food seems to be all I really want to eat, well that or chocolate cake...
and i had to finally give in and buy some maternity clothes and some differently sized undergarments
no descriptions for the boys sorry
as well as some nice new pjs
also we're going to Scotland on the 24th to the 28th,
and the 29th is my 21st birthday,
I am really looking forward to the trip I can't wait to see my family again it really has been too long since the last time i went up north,
*sigh*

Everyone please form an disorderly mob as we try to figure out which person lost the paperwork in their car boot so then we can rip it out and throw it on whoever is supposed to be in charges desk!

I so want to move out of the estate, yes I know it is a small one and it isn't that bad in comparison to others but you can't see out of it tonight because they let off that many fire works. Doesn't seem to bother the cats though

That's because cats, like fireworks, are evil and exist almost purely to wind up poor innocent dogs.

the days just seem to be getting on top of me
I feel so very sleepy

how long to go Anthea please

well I went to the midwife for a 24 week check on Monday
and i don't need to go back for four weeks
which is nice.
although they will be taking blood
which is not

i found out my blood group is B+ so i suppose that's interesting

in a few weeks we will be moving in with joe's parents

again

can't say I'm looking forward to it
but any change is a good thing
I think

thanks love.
I used to get B+'s at school
moving in again ?,is this just a temp' while baby born
I'm glad all is well flower, I miss a natter with you on here, Khamsin/Joe as well
take care and rest when ever possibleok!

yeah its just till we sort something else out
we stayed there till we got married and its nice having your own space
so i guess that it will be hard for a while to get used to having to share a house like that again,
but in some ways it will be nice as well, to have family close to hand and to sit round the table at meal times...
I just wish that there was a more permanent end to this as it gets rather... frustrating?


I bought a peter rabbit toy for baby the other day...
now all i need is a cot to put it by and the baby to play with it

I wish you both well, that goes without saying, but look at it this waywhen the day comes that we can meet in real, I'll have a extra hootoo'er to see




mothers day9 months after fathers day

deary me, that's terrible
funny.... but terrible

you should know me by now

...




and yet here i still talk to you
and consider myself not too mentally incapacitated by the whole experience

to have conversations with "norm's" would get boring very easily, so that's why I'm about

I ain't norm by a mileand proud on it!

and we're very glad your not prof
it would be a very strange world otherwise and very hard to imagine
we like your quirkiness - it brings things into perspective

your so kind

modesty forbids me to agree with you

but the other parts are all telling you i'm correct


back from Scotland
the stay was nice but i'm glad to have my own bed back
nothing quite like home.... even if you are half way through moving out

we stayed in Ardeer or something like that,
the b&b was lovely but lets say its a good idea not to go out and meet the locals

my appologies to the people of stevenson but you know what i mean

Well I came back up from brum on the 19th and I had a three hour wait in Glasgow. If I'd come back on the 20th it would have cost slightly less but I'd have been stuck in Glasgow for three hours with an old firm game on.

That could've been fun. The best thing you can do during an Old Firm game is try your hardest to look Jewish...

glad to have my own bed back ? somebody nick it, the swine's


er! whoopee! I got a reporters badge

Well with if I'd thought about it I could have grown out my beard, then I'd have looked Jewis/Arabic. The only problem is the Brum police seem to think I look like someone fun to talk to when I do that, which means it can take a long time to get anywhere.
