I'll let you borrow my kids. ;)

Seriously, though - the baby bug is tough. The only cure for me was a baby. :(

:)

Even being around other people's toddlers all day still makes me want my own.

The pros to waiting, though are that my husband plans to stay at home with them until the school years, so there is good reason for us to wait.

We'll just be a little older, and try to have them back-to-back. Mid 30's doesn't seem so bad when I see moms all the time in their late 30's to early 40's running after kids.

I just hope I'll still want them as much as I do now (i think I will :))

Why do I get the silliest songs stuck in my head? Right now it's the Maneater song by Nelly Furtado. I think I've only heard the song like twice...:p

:confused: I thought it was pawned?

On a related note though, I lawled when I saw the "Rejected by your pwn school" thread in the Thunderdome.

I don't wanna be at work. I wanna be home snuggled up on the couch with a movie and some cocoa. And maybe a book that has nothing to do with science. :(

I feel your pain. I'm trying to do some work in the office this aft. It's going very slowly.

Mmmm hot cocoa.

thank you all for indulging my little pity party there +pity+

It could be a lot worse for me right now, so I have that to be thankful for. I've actually gotten an initial assessment and entire set of progress notes done for my self-employment gig. :thumbup: Let's see if productivity begets productivity.....

yeah, right :rolleyes:

Okay, now THAT is amazing. :laugh: I can barely tolerate other people's children. The only kids I am particularly fond of are my own and my niece. :)

I think the fact that children at the age I see them are just so innocent. I rarely meet a child under 3 I don't like. The parents on the other hand....... :eek:!

Got my hair cut last week and went for a more razored effect and extremely layered with my longest layers forming a shoulder-length shag. I have red hair with blond hilites I do myself (normal red - not the fire-engine I used to have a while back!)

I really like it because my hair is thick, so I can wash it, put a little mousse or gel in it and just dry it (while using one hand to tousle it during drying) and it has so much body and texture! If I remember, I'll take a pic tomorrow of it.

Yeah, I was just looking through old pictures of myself. I've done the highlights thing WAY too much. I found a few from when I had dark hair before and it looked pretty nice. So I'll probably do that again.

My biggest problem is trying to go dark without going red - my hair really takes on red hues for some odd reason.

I still need to figure out a cut. ;)

Waiting sucks!

Good :luck: though!

You know it's weird...on the one hand, I want these 2 months to fly by for decisions to come...but on the other hand, I want the semester to creep by because it's my last time to be in college.

thanks! luck to you too, though i'm sure you are relieved to have a few acceptances in the bag already :)

i know what you mean about the waiting. it would be nice to know where i'm going to be next year, but at the same time, it's nice to still have some relaxation time before things get really crazy.
