Officially Pregnant

I remember one time 7 years ago when a woman I was interviewing for the Alamogordo Daily News in New Mexico asked me if I had a secret to share. She thought I was expecting. How insulting, I thought! Then again, I was wearing one of those bulky wool sweaters, not this ugly but you get the picture.

So there I was at the coffee station at work earlier this week - in my 23rd week - when a little woman from the other side of the 5th floor asked me when I was due. No "oh I heard you're expecting" just "so when are you due?" with this big grin on her face. Wow, I guess I officially look pregnant now! No more wondering if people think I've been eating Twinkies and McDonald's for every meal and then some.

Speaking of food (one of my favorite topics), Tony and I made a quick Hanny's run tonight for milk, OJ and Milk Bones when I stumbled upon single serving Eddie's ice cream cups for $1. It was all the excitement I could handle for one evening. I grabbed one in every flavor: chocolate, chocolate chip (my pick for tonight's Mad Men viewing) and mint chocolate chip. What a fabulous idea for pregnant women across America!!
