Q: If your child falls jumps out his crib at 3am and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
A: Yes, a very large thud. Followed by the sound of your heart beating so loudly it wakes the neighbors. Followed then by a frantic search for an allen key that will fit the crib so you can lower the mattress at 3:02am. (He’s fine btw.)
Q: Is video taping yourself in the bridesmaids dress you will wear this weekend narcissistic or just neurotic?
A: Both. And definitely wear the spanx.
Q: When will you feel like a human again? To be more specific, when will your sinus infection clear up AND when will you get decent sleep. 4 hours is NOT enough.
A: Maybe Saturday. Grandma and Auntie are coming to the wedding and taking care of the boy for the night. We have a room down the street at a different hotel.
We’re off to DC very early tomorrow morning for a wedding extravaganza. Back in January, I made one of my weight loss goals:
I want to feel confident walking down the aisle in front of 300 people in my slim red bridesmaids dress at a wedding in May.
Well, it turns out it’s more like 400 people and it’s going to be super fancy. I’ve lost 20 pounds exactly since I made that statement, went down 2 dress sizes (resulting in $100 in alterations on said dress), and I hope I will feel confident. Right now I just feel very tired and sick, so I hope I can snap out it and feel energized by Saturday. I also get to wear a sari for the Hindu ceremony which I’ve been looking forward to for ages for some reason. I just love them! Full report on Monday.
