april shower curtains

i told the babe that i would be really really happy if he was a boy.

just to put that out there.

i mean, i did have a dream in which the babe was a girl, but that can't mean that i'm all oh, it's a girl for sure so much that i would make the potential junior boy linneman feel sad when he reads his mom's blog from when he was in the womb. not that he'll be reading for a while. or maybe he will. weird, what if s/he did read this?

anyway, today i prayed that i would be really productive at work. and i was! it felt really good. i am down to six weeks and one day. and that's actually the first real countdown that i've done.

i have some herbs that i planted in soup cans that are on our windowsill and i thought about taking a picture of them to be like you girls, jess and natalie, but then i realized that they may actually be dead. um. so. i guess i'll see if they grow any more before a picture is taken. annnnnd i had a dream about them growing. not that they actually did. my thought life must be picking up again.. dreaming about herbs growing to take a picture of them.

i gave jeremy a haircut tonight. so fresh and so clean clean. sometimes in the middle of these haircuts i just want to throw in the towel and start paying for them again. it's a lot of pressure to cut somebody's hair, you know? and i'm thinking that it does in fact take longer than the 10-15 minutes we've come to assume each haircut time allotment should be. but he's mine and i love him. so i should do everything i can to protect him from the hands of well-meaning but usually thoroughly-scalping sportsclips stylists.

i keep trying to think of some other news that i can say "in other news..." about, but it looks like there might not actually be any other news. hmm.. oh! we have a new shower curtain. blue and green vertical stripes. i realllly like it and have mentioned liking it so much a few times. jeremy said that he thinks about it so much that it's almost like there are four of us in the family now.

well, goodnight then :)

...did you get your shower curtain from Target?... because I registered for a similar-sounding shower curtain (that my brother got me for my birthday)... & if we do have the same shower curtain... well, then I am going to feel like a TOTAL stalker... I was on the verge, but now this might be serious.

Also, did you poke holes in the bottom of the can to allow water to escape? Because if you didn't, get Jeremy to do it for you!... because that will help your lil herbs! :)

figure out on which side your house faces south & put them in a windowsill on that side. I guarantee that they will get some sun! If that doesn't work (or you don't have a windowsill that faces south), put them outside! Atleast you'll have porch herbs instead of dead ones!

& if you do have some damaged goods, lady- I'll take 'em! I'll be in on Friday to drop off my delicious goodies for Artraaaaaageous! woo!

ps. shower curtains are totally blog-worthy.

pss. you & jeremy need to come over to our (mine & luke's) house once we move in. OKAY? so put it on your calendar... sometime in September. yes, that is right... I am planning waaaay in advance! OMG & THE BABE TOO!!!! SAKFJASFJ!
