I have officially entered into the 'miserable' part of being pregnant and all I can think about is everything I can't do and everything I miss from those non-pregnant times that I can hardly remember.
Things like sleeping on my stomach
running
clipping my toenails/seeing my feet
having more than 4 clothing options for work
not sleeping with pillows on my side/back/in between my legs
not having a bad case of cankles by noon every day
hot tubs, rollercoasters, and standing for more than 20 minutes at a given time
doing the dew and not worrying about heartrates
sitting at my desk and not having a fan that I need to turn off everytime my phone rings
a painless lower back
my belly button
lifting things that aren't empty boxes from baby stuff
only writing thank you notes in April and December
not tearing up everytime someone asks me to do something at work
not tearing up thinking about epidural vs. pain
being able to make decisions
staying awake past 10
my 20/20 vision
clearly I've put very little thought into this list (and/or have been thinking about it and adding to it for the past 9 months.)
I THINK THAT'S IT!

The cable guy came yesterday and was here for over two hours, but I have him to thank for the best 24 hours of my life (minus the 9.5 I spent sleeping and the 10 I spent working and driving)because I have watched so much tv and looked at so many blogs in those other hours.
In fact, I am watching tv as we speak, eating puffy cheetos (because it's a rite of passage with pregnancy) while Derek does P90x in the bathroom. He bought a pull up bar and the only doorway that it works in is the bathroom which is strangely convenient considering his ps2 and xbox don't play the dvds so he needs to play them on his laptop anyway. I'm just thankful the bathroom has 2 doorways so I don't have to ref any fights when baby wants to johnny jumpup while derek wants to do ab ripper x.
In other news, we got the crib set-up last night. I can't decide where to put anything in that room though and have rearranged it 3 times since 10pm last night. I can only imagine what the next 5 weeks will bring in my little nesting world.
I have nothing else to say because childbirth class and too much tv have turned my brain to mush.

Disconnect
It's weird that as disconnected as I feel right now being in the brutal week 2 of no cable and internet, I have never known so much about the news. We have a nice little antenna that gives us network channels so I can keep up with the latest local news...at 630am, 5:00pm, 6:00pm, 9:00pm, and 10:00pm. I'm embarrassed to say I watch them all and I'm sure my coworkers are sick of me coming into work saying "did you hear about ___?!" I also know the extended 10 day forecast at all times thanks to the 2 all weather channels we pick up and probably the best part is when we get a break from watching the news to catch some Wheel. I miss Bravo. I miss watching Twins games. and dare I say I miss TLC. However, there's a light at the end of this tunnel so say a prayer I make it to Sunday.
