La la la la la
This is where I say things like: Wow! Neat-O! So cool to be back!
So, like, my neighbor? She's pregnant. And my boyfriend's uncle's wife's brother's niece? Pregnant. Everyone is pregnant! Happy happy happy! I go away and come back and more people are knocked up. You didn't get knocked up while I was away? Just wait. I'm away for a long weekend in two weeks, I'm sure you'll find yourself firmly up the duff then.
Whatever.
So we're back. We stayed at a distillery. When we booked it, I remember thinking: If I'm up the duff, I just won't drink the whiskey! While pregnant I remember thinking: No whiskey for me, but that's ok! While I was there, I thought: Fuck it. More whiskey, please.
Acupuncture tomorrow. Let's see if a few little needles can turn me into Polly-fucking-anna or something.
PS-http://twistedovaries.com now works to get here, too.
Put Gorby in a dog stroller and mow them all down.

Wow! Staying right at the source, no worries about getting home in one piece. :-)
Two weeks from now you say? I might manage that. Thanks for the offer. ;-)

Gahd, I feel the same way. Except, in my life, the only ones who aren't pregnant are the ones who've just given birth. YAY!
Cool about the distillery, though. Hope you brought some souvenirs home in case the acupunture-induced Polly-fucking-anna transformation doesn't happen.
I'm just sayin...

It seems, sometimes, like a wall you run into. So you turn around and BAM, you run into it again. Can't see it coming, but there it is.
I'm with Zee. Finally two of my close friends have given birth, so I no longer have to envy them...now just waiting for the other two to pop.

hahahahahaha, Statia. That's classic.
So, how was the booze?

LOL - Ummm, yeah, no surprise pregnancy here! But I did stop by a blog today that hadn't been updated in over a month, and WHAM! She's pregnant! But it's a good thing, being that it is a fellow IF'er and all that.... ;) Hey, maybe it was YOU after all???? ;)
And, speaking of acupuncture -- I talked to my RE earlier this week, and he asked if I had been doing Acupuncture, FOR.THE.LAST.THREE.CYCLES. I said, no, that I hadn't ever done Acu during IVF, but I had done it a couple of years ago. He said that he felt it could help, and that I should definitely start going for acupuncture NOW. Hmmmmmmmm. Perhaps, if this was his view, he might have considered sharing it with us ohhhh, say, about ONE YEAR AGO, before we did our first fresh IVF cycle?!?!?! Yeah.
Sooo, I guess I'll be searching for a new acupuncture clinic shortly....
Anyway, welcome back, such as it is....I hope the booze and Acupuncture do wonders for you!
And that you can avoid those pregnancy drive-bys.....

Ha ha, I can beat you all. My freakin' BARTENDER is pregnant. I can't even drown myself in alcohol without seeing her all giddy because of her "oops!" pregnancy. She didn't even realize it for a few weeks because she doesn't keep track of her periods. Cow.
