evolution

On Monday morning I promised myself that I would have a new outlook on my job this week: I'd be less pessimistic, ignore the various annoying people throughout my office and let things roll off my back rather than tick me off. I wasn't going to stress. Now that I'm a few days into my newly evolved outlook on work, I have to admit that people still piss me off on a regular basis. Just let me focus on my work and leave me alone, please... but the whole no-more-stress thing has actually worked. I didn't have a headache on Monday or Tuesday (and I barely had one yesterday) and I'd like to think it's more than just coincidence, no?

Evvvvvvveryone at works knows now. There's no hiding this tummy anymore. The techniques vary: "are you growing?" ... "did you have a big lunch?" ... "do you have something you need to tell me?" ... and this is the point where I usually say, you got me! I'm pregnant. Then, the baby gender/due date/how many weeks/well, when I was pregnant comments ensue. At one meeting a number of people actually declared that everyone needed to spare a seat for the pregnant lady, which was strange. I insisted I was fine and that I could stand - little did I know that meeting would drag on for an hour. The only reason it ended was because a girl actually fainted from standing up so long. For reals. It was that boring.

It's supposed to be 80 degrees tomorrow. If only we were still in Richmond... I'd spend my afternoon on Belle Isle with Luke, my lunch and a good book. Speaking of Richmond, good luck with your giant tattoo today, Taryn!! Feel better!! xoxo
