Minnie-Me
So, it's New Year's Eve. I have long, horrible tales of holiday travel to tell, but alas, I am too exhausted from said tales to relate them at this moment. In fact, I'll be lucky if I make it to midnight. We may have a visit from an out-of-town friend tomorrow, which would make it feel like a bit of a celebration, but in the meantime, we did at least enjoy some brie (screw you, soft-cheese for pregnant women naysayers, it's all pasteurized for christ's sake...) and sparkling cranberry cocktail.
The big thrill today was our first sonogram. Much to my amazement, we're having a girl! Below, you can see the little alien-baby, in profile. The big head-shaped thing is, well, her head, and you can see her little nose and mouth, and she has her chin tucked right into her chest, and the rest there to the left is her little curled up body and legs. It looks pretty crowded in there already; don't ask me what she's going to do for another 22 weeks...
So I wish you all a very Happy New Year, and hopefully both Decapitating Shadows and Ennui Central will be up to full publishing speed by Monday. Cheers!

Is this a Rorschach Inkblot? I think I see a cow grazing on a grassy hillside.

You're lucky I have a good sense of humor.

Congratulations!!! Glad your ultrasound appointment went well! It's exciting that you're having a girl! I laughed so hard about the brie thing ... LOL! :D
