Reality show commentary

I had an ultrasound a little over a week ago and all went well. The baby looks good and I feel more confident now about this pregnancy. She was moving around a lot during the ultrasound and got the hiccups towards the end. It’s nice to feel her moving now and find it a nice reassurance that she is doing okay.

Last night I had a difficult time getting to sleep what with heartburn and all, so I flipped the channels for a while and read a book. I am not a fan of the pseudo reality show Newport Harbor on MTV and haven’t watched it before, but last night I watched because I saw Santa Barbara in the information caption. I watched it solely to see area shots of Dom’s hometown…how pathetic is that. I admit I was feeling a smidge homesick at that moment. Miss you SB! What a beautiful city.

Also, I watched the Real World last night (which I am addicted to). Those kids are so lucky to be in Sydney! I’d really like to visit Australia someday. I know that through the magic of editing we the audience will form opinions based on how the producers decide to paint people, but I’m not a fan of Dunbar’s. He’s not a very nice person and I just don’t get it. Are we missing some of the information here? Are the girls egging him on and we just get to see the fall out? I just don’t understand why a girl would want to date a guy like him in the first place based on only information I have seen on TV. Just my humble opinion here. The other two guys on the show though I think are just cute as pie.

It’s starting to snow outside. Nice!

Biscuit breakfast, yum

I love having the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit at McDonalds for breakfast. It’s so good. I made the mistake of ordering orange juice with the meal this morning and I’m definitely paying for it now. I had orange juice a few weeks ago with a breakfast meal and felt sick the rest of the morning. I don’t think my baby likes orange juice all that much. Yuck. I feel pretty darn sick right now. Lesson learned. No more orange juice.

I realize this commentary is a little late since the Bachelor has been over for a few weeks now, but here it is…I watched the Bachelor this season. I’m not a big bachelor fan, but the first night I couldn’t get to sleep and watched it and was sucked in from then on. I was sure that he would pick DeAnna, but I’m so glad he didn’t pick either woman. Everyone knows that those relationships don’t work out anyway, so I like him more for the decision he made. Go Brad…that is his name, right? I think it is.

I called to order pizza the other night and when they asked for my phone number I completely blanked out. I could not for the life of me remember how my phone number started. I tried to stall while I racked my brain by asking my husband if it was his number we use for the pizza (I couldn’t remember his number at the moment either).

I’m 19 weeks preggers now and feeling okay. I’ve been taking Vitamin B-6 in the mornings and I think it has helped a bit with the sickness. I’m halfway there…Orion was born at 38 weeks, so I’m thinking she might come early too. I’m looking forward to my next ultrasound. It will be nice to see that she is okay and everything looks good. I’m just a little nervous still because of the demise of the little boy in there. It’s a small chance that I’m going to loose her, but I’m just a little gun shy about the whole baby thing. I went to Sears over the weekend to have a tire patched and looked at some girl baby clothing. Everything is so pink!!! I felt much more comfortable in the boy section, but I’m going to have to adjust. I want to start buying things for her, but I’m just worried it’s going to jinx something. I think I’ll wait until after Christmas and just focus on her after the new year.
