Kitty Midnight Madness

Just because I thought this was funny.. and I'm too lazy to come up with something original right now.

The great expansion...

of my wardrobe and my waist.

Yes, today, for the first time ever, I am wearing maternity jeans, one of two pairs of pants I have with a belly band. I don't really look pregnant yet (just fat); I'm in that awkward place where my clothes are tight, but I'm also not really big enough for maternity yet. And even though the jeans are the right size, they don't quite fit...yet. They keep sliding down because neither my butt nor my belly are big enough to keep them up! I know that will change in the coming weeks, but for now, I have to keep hiking them up because I can't exactly wear a belt with them. Hmm, maybe suspenders? LOL.

But these jeans are a welcome relief from the pinching my belly has been getting from the waistband of my pants. Even when I wear the stretch knit pants below my belly, they still press on my pelvis. It's so nice to be this comfortable in clothes that I can actually wear outside of the house.

I can totally see how I'm gonna wanna keep wearing these pants long after the baby comes. All-you-can-eat buffet? I'm in. Just let me get my favorite jeans!

Is it just me...

or does Reince Priebus sound more like a medical condition than a person's name?

Arguably, either way, it's an affliction.

Justice Scalia can sign some of these lyrics...

(Just because I found this amusing...)

Told folks at work

That I've got one in the oven. When I told my boss, a look of panic spread over his face, but then he smiled.

Of course, everyone that I told (about 1/3 the office) was very happy and supportive. I told them all that mum's the word (um, literally!) and asked them not to spill the beans to anyone else.

We'll see who blabs inappropriately first. I'm betting it will be my boss. Seriously. ::sigh::

Plain brown wrapper

Both SM and I got Kindles for Christmas. The potential of e-readers seems pretty huge, especially the privacy of no one knowing what you're reading -- which immediately made me wonder when porn is going to hit Kindle.

It seems to me that this would be the ultimate plain brown wrapper for folks who want to peruse their fave magazines incognito. The technology for a color screen is already there. Many magazines and newspapers already offer e-reader subscriptions. Porn seems to be a logical next step. Subscription to Hustler, anyone?

Or perhaps I'm naive and porn has already made it to the little screen?

We speak DC

A little while ago, I told SM that I was hungry. He asked me if there were anything he could do to remediate the situation.

I told him he's been working for the government too long.
