Mar. 10th, 2010 05:08 pmNot to sound like a broken record or anything, but I will be so very happy when this accursed quarter is over. I'm hoping the wide variety of courses I'm taking next quarter will be a relief.
One more week, and then a final. I can totally do this.
I know that if I hadn't been moving in the middle of this quarter, I probably would have been fine. But I got my ass behind because of all that crap, and this is what I get as a result. Can't be helped.
Meridan and I have set something of a timeframe for babymaking. We don't have it down to the month that we're going to start trying, like the crazy women online on those baby forums, but we did decide that once he starts grad school and we leave Olympia, we can start getting ready to try. It's a little exciting, but also terrifying. I know in my head that it'll be nearly 2 years before we throw the condoms away, but it's still scary, y'know?
Anyways - the reason I mention this is because I have basically about a year and a half to get myself all in order. This means doing the following: getting my teeth entirely fixed (so much for eliminating debt, eh?) and losing at least 50 pounds. I've been doing lots of research, and basically if I get myself to a good weight before all the sexing, I'm more likely to get knocked up quicker and have a healthier baby.
I kinda like this better than the whole vague "hey, I'm kinda fat, I should stop eating junk" thing I've been doing. Meridan has just about the same amount of weight to lose (surprise, we put it on together, now we get to take it off together!) and we're going to work together. 18 months. That's about 2.5-3 pounds a month. Pretty reasonable, I think.
Anyways.
My mom is on her way to pick me up - she wants to go to Costco and my membership is current, unlike my dad's at the moment, so she needs me to go with her. Good times.
