Our DSL will be back a week from today, at noon. Oy. Even DAVE is getting the shakes from lack of internet at home.  Anyway, I will survive. I should really use the time to hammer out my papers. Really.

Other than that, things are good — I just ordered more fitted diapers, after being tipped off to a sale (Kissaluvs for 8.50! New! Free Shipping!), which makes it much more palatable. I mean, 8.50 for a new kissaluv is a deal, since that’s what people pay for them USED on eBay. I can totally sell them when we’re done, like a tax refund or something, so I’m not going to worry about it.

Coming up, I have my next appointment on Thursday, where I’ll have an NST (non-stress test, where they measure the baby’s movements and such) and maybe a cervical check, as I haven’t yet and will be 37w on Friday. I will be at school after that, so I can update thatsituation (hopefully, all is good and normal, and it would be WAY cool to have had SOMETHING happen with my cervix.)

I won’t be online tomorrow, because that’s my Y day and all, but damn, I know how connected I am to the blogs I read, ESPECIALLY when there’s a baby on the way, and EVEN MORE ESPECIALLY when that expectant mama hits term, and good goddamn, I am creating my own worst scenario for anyone reading along . . . "OMG, wonder what happened? She hasn’t posted or been on AIM or at ADL at all in like DAYS, and that is so unlike her ooooooo!!!!" So. Just to be clear, no DSL at home until Tuesday. Baby better stay put until at least then, because holy hell, how will I let ANYONE know if something were to happen? I mean, Jeanne could be a portal, I guess, so I’ll make her my emergency backup baby-news generator.  I should probably let her know that. And, as an aside, anyone in the  viewing area of my local CBS affiliate could just watch the last five minutes of every newscast, since it’s the norm to announce new members of the station family in that slot, often with video or stills,  even if you’re not on-air talent.  (And hey, watch the newscasts anyway! And the shows! And the ads, and keep the widget’s daddy employed!)

Yeah — NOT IN LABOR. Just suffering through many hours of no internet.  Sigh.
