I had planned on talking about how Jeff, and now it seems my daughter, has baby-itis. I'm just not feeling it for tonight, though. So I think I'm just going to ramble for a bit.
I now know what the guy from Alien felt like. None of my four ever moved this much, nor this forceful. This little dude has literally almost knocked the computer off my lap. I didn't think it was possible until I saw the damned thing lurch. LOL He makes my clothes jump, he makes my boobs jiggle. I'm glad it doesn't hurt like it looks like it should. He's kicked my bladder with surprising accuracy, as well as whatever part of the birth canal he's near. Those hurt. I imagine that when I'm getting kicked in the birth canal area, that's as close to knowing what a guy feels when he's kicked in the nuts as I am going to ever get. It hurts as much as I imagined it would. LOL
Brianna and I rearranged the living room today. We had to, I got sick of having to doge Wii controllers. So, we moved the kids desk from one wall of the corner it's in to the other, and moved my section of the couch down a foot or so, then moved the love seat next to it. Lots more room in here now. The coffee table might actually get to stay with my blessing now. (I hate that table, seriously hate it)
Took an accidental break from Snarry today. I was doing a Yahoo search for a Girl!Harry fic list, and stumbled across a hilarious HP/Marvel crossover. I have always been a fan of stories that took the way the Wizarding world was written, and show just how idiotic some of the things are. This story does it in spades, and in a very intelligent, yet funny manor. Unfortunately, I believe this fic has been abandoned. But this is one I'll enjoy just getting to what is here.
Yet another day with no writing done. I am very glad for the 500 word min in the Mini Fest. I highly doubt I'll be much over that. I may just give up writing all together after this is done. It's supposed to be fun, and for whatever reason it's not at the moment. I do really hope that changes. I had lots of fun and enjoyment writing MM. Maybe I'm just trying to hard?
Jeff's Medical Board Package was sent off to who ever makes the decisions today. Not as much fanfare over that as I thought there would be. We've only been waiting for, oh something like 2.5 to 3 years for this. Seriously, after a person is on a "Profile" (a Profile is what the Air Force calls what they put a person on when he cannot participate in PT, and/or has job restrictions.) for over a year. Jeff has been on a profile for at least three years, and I'm thinking it's closer to four. I'm not sure whether or not they include the time before the back surgery or not. *shrugs* Hopefully we will have a decision in a few months. Whether or not he appeals that decision, is another matter.
I also found out that the person I'm being a Surrogate for is planing on staying in the same suite as she is putting me in while I am in LA. While I understand the logic to this thinking, I am DREADING that time. After all that shit she put us through last month...it was already to the point where I fill up with dread when I get an email from her. I just want this over and done with, so that I can cut all ties with her. I have found that she is a user. She creates friendships with people expecting that to change how business works with them. She did it to her embryologist as well as her lawyer and his wife, and now she's done it to me. LOL Road to hell, I now know that personally. Still, want to do it again, though. Possibly, depends on the carrier abuse I get from the alien. LOL
I cannot believe I am saying this...But it hit me the other day how much I really want to move back home. I could have sworn I hated it there. I know I hate being that close to my mother. But, aside from that, I have the urge to be back there. Creeped me out when I realized, but it's still true. LOL
Going to try and continue adding recipes for as long as I can during this. Tonight's feature, what Jeff and Brianna lovingly call: Heartburn in a Bowl.
1 chuck roast (cut into inch cubes) or 1 package of boneless skinless Chicken thighs (cut into bite sized pieces)
2 med onions (cut into chunks)
2 green peppers (cut into chunks)
2 reg cans or 1 large can of diced tomatoes
2 reg cans or 1 large can or tomato sauce
1 can of Italian flavor tomato paste
1 1/2 cups of Italian dressing
Italian type herbs of your liking
Toss everything into a pan, (I use my lasagna pan), and stir until mixed completely. Put into a pre-heated 375 oven for 45 min to an hour. Serve over mashed potatoes.
