20-week checkup: gained 5 lbs from last visit (7 weeks ago). Looked at the ultrasound measurements and the baby is measuring one week ahead of schedule but my EDD will stay the same anyways (it's only a week) and the heartbeat was 163. The doctor had hard time keeping up with the baby! She was moving so much lol I bet she is going to be impatient like her mother hahah :P

Tom Green files for divorce from Drew Barrymore. Somehow I'm not surprised.

Nobody told me that today was supposed to be one of the busiest days at the Post Office. If I would've known, Eitel would've been the one standing in line with 2 packages instead of me.

OTOH, the supervisors are on vacation. wheeeeee :P

I don't want to go to work. Work is going to be boring this week. I don't want to go to work. bleh

New layout. Didn't take too long to do it, I mean it's only nested tables. And while I was working on it, the baby decided to move quite a bit. I think that means she likes the computer! lol good girl ;)

Just when I think I have $$ left to buy stuff, I have to replace the serpentine belt on my car. oh, and the outer tie rods are bad also. damn plus I need a new air filter. anything else? sucks

man, I thought Blogger was down yesterday. Nope, it was my DNS crapping on me. bleh

Anyways, ultrasound went ok yesterday. Everything looks ok but the doctor will let me know the specifics next week. The tech took a look at the baby and she told us that it looks like a girl, that she couldn't see any boy parts. Good enough for me (I guess those open leg vibes worked lol). If you want to see the pics, the links are on the left over there --->

Nutella + Sara Lee Poundcake = yum!

to tightplus@Telkom.net (obviously a fake addy) from Costa Rica: quit sending me empty emails. I think 104 emails is enough.

Looks like I'll have a connection for at least three more months, since Comcast came with some kind of agreement with @home. OTOH I've been having problems sleeping. I can't find a comfortable position and spend all night moving and switching sides. Sucks ass. I don't want to see what's going to be like when this belly grows ten fold. And next Monday is the level II Ultrasound, so please send the baby some open legs vibes.. lol I want to know the sex already heh

To my three readers: If I disappear after tomorrow, this is why. And dialup won't work because I have no land line.

news today at work: Ford prepares to trim temp worker companies. And my company is one of them. They don't know what to tell us, just that we shouldn't rush making our decisions.

What's better than an Iron Chef marathon or a Star Trek TNG Marathon? Going shopping for baby stuff! wheeee

I am 70% ADDICTED TO THE INTERNET.



I am pretty addicted, but there is hope. I think I'm just well connected to the internet and technology, but it's really a start of a drug-like addiction. I must act now! Unplug this computer!

ME? addicted? nah, Eitel is the one addicted :P

Happy Thanksgiving Day!

First belly pic: 15W6D. It's still little but damn my waist did get big.

What's better than Iron Chef USA? The new Justice League show in Cartoon Network. Brilliant! Plus you get to see Green Lantern, Superman and Flash ;)

No meteor shower over here in SE Michigan. Go figure, we had thick fog from around 8pm to who knows this morning. Couldn't see a thing. sucks!

I had no idea it was so hard to buy unisex clothes for the baby. I'm trying to buy things that I find on sale but all the cute stuff is either blue or pink!! All I can see is green and yellow.. what about some grey eh? I could use grey heh

Next time my mom decides to call me at 6:30am in the weee hours of the morning, I'm going to kill her. Actually I just won't pick up the phone, which I tried to do but she kept dialing the number! grrr I need those extra 10 minutes before actually getting up for work.

I read on some pregnancy ubb that I read that the new Dairy Queen Frozen Hot Chocolate Smoothie thing was really good.. and damn them, it is! I've had pretty much one of them every day LOL I even got Eitel hooked on it.

Week 15 is almost here and I feel like everything inside me is stretching. It's a weird feeling, which means that I'm probably going to start getting big soon. I can still wear my size 12 pants but soon I might need to buy maternity clothes. Besides that and the headaches that keep pounding me, everything is ok. I can listen to the baby's heartbeat at home now, around 155-160bpm. It's so cool!

Anyone wants to buy a laptop from me?

This is what I get for downloading the new ICQ 2001b. I took most of my contacts and put them under "Awaiting authorization". New and improved eh?

oooooh cute pregnant dolls! I think some of the brunette ones look like Cher lol

Latest cost-saving measure: no trash cans at the office cubes. Take your trash to some designated location somewhere in your builduing (including food, paper, etc). WTF?? That was everyone's reaction today. You comeback the next day to find no trash cans on your cube. No email notification about it, no announcement made. By noon, we had them all back. It looks like someone in upper management didn't like the idea of not having a trash can and *gasp* walking with the rest of us to the trash area. heheh

That's the story of the day and I'm sticking by it :P

Happy Halloween!!!

Finally listened to the baby's heartbeat, 160bpm. It's so cool, that I might rent one of these so I can listen at home.

I'm officially in my second trimester. yay! My next pre-natal visit is on Tuesday, so I hope to listen to the heartbeat this time (saw it last time during the ultrasound).

Remember kids that you get an extra hour of sleep this weekend. Like I need any more sleep these days LOL

Friday: Cloudy and windy with snow showers likely. High near 42F. Winds W 25 to 35 mph and gusty. Chance of precipitation 60%.

snow showers... ick, as long as it stops while I'm driving to/from work, I'm okay with it.

Am I supposed to get all these pimples while pregnant? Damn I feel like a teenager again. It sucks.

You can blame Shannon for this one. I finally went to Macaroni Grill for lunch (hey is cheaper) and ordered the Penne Arrabbiata. It was good! Plus they gave you tons of it, which I had to take home, of course. yum yum yum

Bye bye green, hello eadible colors ;)
I was lazy to come up with a new layout so I borrowed one of Zal's lovely layouts over at brokensky. The rest of the pages will change this weekend.

Laura is back.. yay!

Watched Smallville last night. I thought it was good, plus the guy that plays Clark Kent is hot (in a Superman kinda way).

Everyone is so worried about anthrax in the past couple of days. I'm not worried about that, as long as they keep smallpox out of the equation.

How to get our revenge with a bloodless attack? Drop pr0n-bombs. hahaha

Happy Birthday to the lovely Shannon!!! Now she is as old as I am.. :P

I hate when the naps turn into a 3-5 hour sleep.

I had to do it, you know the Baby Registry at Amazon. Feel free to buy me stuff LOL :P

Decisions, decisions.. I don't know what to watch tonight, Friends or the new Survivor. Life is so complicated :P

wow I already show up on search engines: "pregnant girls". That didn't take too long.

I need a new layout but have no inspiration whatsoever. Anybody wants to volunteer? ;)

U.S. launches attack on Afghanistan. On a Sunday? weird

I want some BBQ wings.. dammit now! yum
I'm having cravings already.

I really have a good reason why I'm not in the blogging mood. I've been feeling kinda awful lately. It feels like the flu but it isn't. I'm pregnant. Yep, me, "the one with the irregular cycle when I'm not on the pill"; me, who never thought I would get pregnant this soon. Guess not eh? After taking 3 hpt tests that came out positive, I finally went to the doctor this week. I'm about 9 1/2 weeks (give or take some days, since I can't remember for sure when I ovulalted/conceived/whatever). I didn't feel anything until after my first month, meaning that I went home pregnant and didn't know it. I have mostly nausea, my boobs feel heavy and that yucky metallic taste in my mouth when I get up in the morning, ick! This means I better start saving money, since I don't get paid when I go in maternity leave (sucks) and daycare is e x p e n s i v e around here. We'll see how it goes.

omg omg omg.. Star Trek TNG marathon on TNN. This rules. BTW, am I the only one that thinks that TNN's page sucks ass? That is some ugly page.

New month, maybe I should start posting eh? But not this early. Noooo still too early for me. One thing, Michigan weather sucks. It goes up and down, from cold to warm to cold. No wonder everyone is getting sick. ick! Well look, I did post this early :P Off to work!

I really need to get back in blogging mood. I just don't feel like it..
Thanks for all the birthday wishes/cards/ecards/presents. I really appreciate it! :)

Happy Birthday to me! :)

I came back Monday night and all my stuff is still on my suitcase. Should I unpack?? lol. As a reminder, my birthday is next Tuesday, I'll be 25 (or "peseta", how they call it back home, means quarter).

I don't know what to say.. I'm speechless about what happened today.

Yeah, I'm still alive and kicking. And I want to go back already!!! I miss Eitel and my babies. Oh, and for those spammers of the world, my email is not working, something is messed up with the Mail Manager in my hosting account, so I don't have any mailboxes. Sucks

After seven hours in airports/airplanes, I finally made it. It's humid as hell and my hair doesn't like humidity lol. One thing I forgot, people don't know how to drive around here. Tailgating, cutting you off on every possible way, merging without using the signal and parking the cars in anything that looks like a spot can make your blood pressure rise. Oh, and I see more malls/building/parking ramps/restaurants in the metro area than ever before. No wonder traffic here sucks monkey hairy ass.

Things to buy before I leave: batteries for the digicam and shampoo. I don't like the kind my mom uses, so I'm bringing my own.

Note to self: don't forget to watch the Madonna concert on HBO tonight.

dammit this sucks: Singer-Actress Aaliyah Dies in Bahamas Plane Crash. RIP

Anybody wants to buy me a ticket for tonight's Powerball? I don't feel like driving two hours to the state line to get it.

OMG.. The reason I started watching Star Trek TNG was because of him and now he has a weblog. That is so cool.

I think I should update my Amazon wishlist, since my birthday is coming up soon *hint*

TGIF!

You know you are having a bad day when.. your dog decides to chew a hole in your rented couch while you are upstairs minding your own business in the peecee. First the carpet (3x) now the couch. I'm going to start a poll.. what's next?

Only nine more days for my trip! I'm getting so excited!!! I love to fly and even more when I got a good deal on the plane tix. I'll be in sunny, hot and humid Puerto Rico while Eitel stays in not so humid Michigan.

From USAToday: Debbie Does Dallas slipped out from behind the curtained section of your video store and onto the stage. A theater adaptation of the porn "classic" is playing at Manhattan's Kraine Theater as part of the New York International Fringe Festival.

I'm testing this blogBuddy thing, kinda neat (stolen from the Shuffle Boards)

This is proof that having millions doesn't necessarily mean that you know how to dress.

Who wants to get me this beauty for my birthday?

Move over Tae-bo, here comes Cardio Striptease.

I watched American Pie 2 on Friday, and all I have to say is.. all them girls look soooo skinny! Tara Reid is trying to compete with Christina Aguilera.. ugh. The movie was good, it has a couple of hilarious scenes but I still think the first one was much better.

wow I'm up this early in the morning, a miracle! I have a doctor's appointment in the morning and I need to do 4 hrs of work today (worked 9 hrs each day this week). Zzzzzzzzz

Eitel and I went to see Rush Hour 2 tonight. It was entertaining, even with Chris Tucker's annoying voice. And the best part? The bloopers at the end of the movie! LOL I just love those.

I just have to say this: it's so fucking HOT out there, 99ºF with heat index of 110. Insane!

got wine?

I just love the headline for this article, it has that spank-o-tron feeling: 'Rush' Buddies Spank Monkeys.

If I change from a C to a D cup and take away some cavities, I'm worth $2,000,746.00

The other day I was watching Nick at Nite and they were showing the Brady Bunch Pop-up video style!! It was very interesting, and whenever the Pop-up videos are shown, I have to watch them. I just wonder if it was a one time thing or if they do that on the weekends.

In other news, purple ketchup coming to stores near you this fall. Eitel thinks it looks like puke.

I better post something this week for my two loyal readers out there. We finally got some rain last night and this morning, but I don't think it's enough to lift the water restrictions the area has. Can't complain though, I rather have this warm weather than the nasty blizzards we get in the winter. The dog decided to chew on more carpet and that brings the total of 3 holes on the (rented) carpet from her and one from the cat. fun fun fun! :P

According to Human For Sale and their exact calculation, I'm worth $1,472,000.00 $1,661,744.00. That's it? What a rip-off! (the amount changed because I missed the intellectual section earlier, go figure)

If your house burns down because you forgot that the poor Pop-tart was in the toaster, you don't have the right to sue Kellogg for your stupidity.

About damn time!! new camtoon.. yay!

I did a building to building move yesterday at work. I was supposed to have my PC and my Sun machine moved over in the morning, and the movers didn't pick them up until 7pm last night. go movers!! So I did nothing yesterday (what a shame!! :P). I just hope that I don't have to move ever again (or at least wait another year to do so).

Are her pants falling off?

Wow, a dog poop story, just for paige.

It's so fucking hot and humid over here. At 6:30am this morning humidity was 95%. Right now is 90ºF and 100% humidity. I have no idea how I managed to live down in PR for so long, where you get this kind of weather almost all year-round. But now that I think about it, maybe I'll lose some 5 lbs when I go down there next month.

I gave up and bought the ticket. I'm flying DTW-ORD-SJU via American Airlines on August 30th, returning on September 10th for the grand price of $372 (found on Side Step). The same itinerary at AA's page was quoted as $396. Not bad I guess. This is all thanks to that rebate check I'm getting in two weeks and thanks to Eitel for lending me the money in advance.

Where's everybody? I'm all alone!! *sniff*

$370 roundtrip from Detroit to San Juan.. not bad thinking that's American Airlines. I think I might take it and go home for a week at the end of August.

How are you going to be a productive worker if they freeze all supply orders for 90 days? How am I going to look busy during meetings if I can't get any more of that nice spiral notepad where I do my doo^H^H^H^Hddles? I just hope those money-saving costs don't reflect on the cars coming out of the plants.

What, no pictures of that?

No wonder why she failed her driving test.

If you are still wondering when are you going to get the IRS rebate check, go here and find out. I'll get mine in about 2-3 weeks. What shall I do with it.. buy cheese? I like cheese.

People can't get a room nowadays? Couple caught having sex in the library.

$1.29: the cheapest I've seen for mid-grade gasoline in a long time. I guess I should fill up before it's too late.

Wanna see where my house is located back in PR? zoom out and zoom in. Highway 22 takes you directly to San Juan, it passes by two major malls and it goes almost all the way around the island. Route #2 does take you around the island (it does turn into route 3 and route 1 in different parts though) but it takes longer, you know, traffic lights, going through towns and all.

Guys, now you can have Anna Kournikova in your own house very soon. Her workout video is coming out in September.

I heard this word on this radio show that I haven't heard in a looong time and I can't stop thinking about it: fugly! LOL Sorry I'm easily amused.

Eitel got a new domain, it's called RedMojo.com. Any similarity with RedCricket is pure coincidence. I swear!
