Manic Monday

9 days until my due date...

I woke up this morning not feeling so hot. I first of all didn't want to get up because I felt so tired and when I did get up I had a pounding headache. I dragged myself to work (somehow managing to leave the house on time) only to find out my student worker had called in. I had to do three equipment setups this morning - which is even more difficult for me now seeing as I can't bend over to tape down the cords too easily. While I was doing the setups, my mom had called my office to chat and wasn't able to get a hold of me. I got back to my office to my cell phone ringing. It turns out she had called my office number two times (leaving two voice messages) and this call was her second on my cell phone. She had thought I had gone into labor. LOL She had even tried the house number to get the answering machine there.

Midday and in the afternoon, I started feeling nauseous but couldn't go home because I had to wait for the next student worker to come in. I also was getting hot flashes so I opened my office window and put the fan on which made me feel better. I'm glad there weren't a lot of students coming to the department ringing the bell for service.

Today is my girlfriend's birthday and also the day she predicted Elizabeth would come. I talked with her on IM a little bit as she took the day off from work and she instructed me to do jumping jacks and to run around the office. LOL She wanted "Lizzie" to come on her birthday!
