ladies and gentlemen, mister johnny cash!!

well, i really can't think of much to say, but i feel compelled to create an entry ...

i am trying to throw my considerable weight into the fall thing in order to encourage it to come on full force. i've made spiced tea, halloween cookies, watched scary movies and started wearing socks again. (i'm not sure about the socks though. my ankles are really the only thing left on me that can be considered thin. with socks on, i sort of look like i have cankles. not sure i wanna go that way.) i also put a bunch of punkins around my front porch and garden. which look really cute cause all my flowers are yellow and orange, so everything matches. (it's the little things, people.)

talking about cookies makes me think about baby class this week ... this was our last childbirthing class, so we had a little party where we all brought snacks. uninspired (and late) as we were, we just grabbed some cookies and cupcakes from wal-mart and headed off for class. well, our path to the hospital took us past krispy kreme ... when jeremy smelled that he was all, "damn woman! we gotta take some krispy kremes tonight. those pregnant chicks will LOVE us!" and jeremy is allllll about getting pregnant chicks to love him, trust me. (he's "one of those guys") so we did and they did. i made our instructor take the rest of them home with her cause she only weighs about 16 pounds. ho.

oh and hey squeeky, this girl in my class was telling me that she works with you. i can't seem to remember her name, though ... anyway, i'm not sure she gets my attempts at humor, cause when she told me she works with you, i said, "oh does she talk shit about me all the time?" and she looked all confused and was like, "uhm, no ..."

okay, i know all the baby stuff is probably getting boring for ya'll, but i have one more good story about it. next week we start the well-baby class. this is where they show us how to keep the kid alive now that we've birthed it. actually, they teach you how to bathe and diaper and hold and feed the baby. our instructor told us they teach you how to "wrap the baby up like a burrito." and of course jeremy has to say something like "wouldn't all that rice and cheese give them a rash?" you see why i can't take him anywhere, people?

actually, he did something yesterday that made me love him about a billion times more than i already did. he quoted x-files!! to me!! i thought i was the only freakshow that did that sort of thing. but it's a really good quote, fe real. i was picking him up from work and i gave him the eyebrow waggle when he walked out cause he was dressed all in black, and he looks great in black. and before I could say it, HE said it: "Ladies and gentlemen ... Mister Johnny Cash!!" hope you all remember that episode. it was beaut. and if you're interested, sci-fi channel is showing viewer's choice episodes all evening on tues. and wed. nights. last night they finished up with the vampire trailer park ... my all-time fave. now if they'll just play the great mutato ... i'll be complete.
