Don't Worry!

I posted this on FiveCamels, but not here. I'm totally ok. I was just sick of my own beat-down, depressing, negative attitude, and totally incapable of morphing that into anything remotely peppy. So I'm taking a little break from blogging. And aspiring to have a positive attitude in real life.

But before I abandon you for a bit, I have to tell you a story. Because apparently I'm not good at adhering to my self-imposed break. 

Today at dinner I announced (to the world... err...Rob) that I'm pregnant until proven otherwise. How's that for a healthy dose of Pep? So we made lots of dumb pregnant jokes. Ended most sentences with "...because you're pregnant!" while nodding convincingly at each other with wide eyes and mock seriousness. We reviewed all the smug pregnant things I'll be saying in a few weeks.


I mean... what's the worst that could happen? I'll be proven otherwise and be just as depressed as I'd be if I'd had no pep all month? No big deal.

After dinner, we went to Target to purchase camera supplies for our snorkeling adventure. As we walked by the underwear aisle, I remembered that I threw out all my holey underpants last week so I also needed some underpants. Into the basket they went. Then on to the camera section: AA batteries were CRAZY on sale: $6 for a 48-pack!! We got two... because how can you pass that up?? And a big fat SD card for all the pretty fishes. And then I looked down at our accumulated pile. And couldn't stop laughing. Loudly in the middle of Target. We unsuccessfully tried not to giggle as we went through the checkout line with: lacy panties, 96 batteries, and an SD card.

Hotness.

Ok. Now I really am off to recoup from this crazy adventure. I'll be back in a few weeks with a fresh, super-chill attitude, fish pictures, and either two pink lines or a nice dent in our margarita mix. Either scenario sounds good.

  1. That is the most awesome Target basket combination ever. Did the clerk raise any brows? If I were the clerk, I don't think I would have been able to keep a straight face. I'd probably end up chuckling and winking or something equally creepy.

    So from now on, I'm going to mail you chocolate from Warfels and monthly basis. Because your pregnant.

    Love you!

  6. That video is hilarious! And so true of so many pregnant people. I'm showing it to B asap - we have a friend who pretty much embodies knocked up and smug (and super obnoxious).
