Pain in the...

Okay, so the back pain I thought was gone, is back... only moderately. And the thing is, I know it's this stupid desk chair. My maternity belt is keeping me from dying from pain like I almost did Monday night. But instead of talking about my back pain, I figured I could talk about other things that are pains in the ____.

-Politicians. Seriously? Everyday, it's something new... "Oh it wasn't Scooter Libby, it was someone else who leaked Valerie Plame's identity." So who? My hunch.... turd blossom, or maybe the big Dick himself. Dick's in a lot of trouble lately anyways, with this news about his involvement with the Oil Companies... things that make you go Hmmmmmm....

-TV. Our favorite show this week got the ax. I could whine about it all day, but you're not here to listen to my whining... so I'll just stop at that.

-Traffic in NoVa. It took me 2 hours to get home last night. TWO HOURS folks... That's how long it took me to get from Raleigh to Wilkesboro in NC. And when I got home... I had miraculously sprouted sausages instead of legs. Quite humerous, and somehow had me craving fair-food again... hmmmm....

-Rude People. This is pretty much self explanitory, but seriously? Cut the new girl some slack!!! She's only functioning as the operator, and if she can't direct your call to the right person, please don't cuss her out... especially if she's been super nice to you and tried REALLY hard to help you.

-Desk Chairs. Wait, I said I wouldn't talk about this one... but what the hey.... :)

-Plagiarism. Poor Matt over at Child's Play is dealing with this, and so is his friend Katie, at Ramblings of a SAHM .

-Swelling. Did I mention the sausages that have become my legs? Yeah... REALLLLLLLL sexy :)

All of those things aside, I guess I should talk about something positive eh? Like the fact that Thanksgiving is next week... or that I can't wait until it snows because, I absolutely love the snow... or that my brother is coming up to visit me this weekend (yay!)... or that I'm so happy that our heating is included in our rent this year... I guess I have lots of things that I'm happy about too... I'll try to post more of those later, but right now, it feels good to get that other stuff off my chest...

For the sausage legs, try support hose. Worked for me.

Yikes! Susage legs? That's a great analogy. I'll have to use that one. Yesterday was the first time I felt any swelling in my legs, but I can't call them susages yet!

The back pain? Wait until you are carrying an infant around all day. Yikes!

I hope it snows soon! Seems like last year we didn't get any.
