I'm here to throw myself at the mercy of my fellow reincarnates. It's come time to paint the nursery, and we can't settle on a colour. I've changed my mind a dozen times in the past two days. We need to decide on something soon so I can actually start working on getting my boyfriend to do the painting part.
So. Opinions or suggestions? I'll take anything at this point.
Except pastels. Keep in mind our kitchen is very blue, and the rest of the house follows that line of design. It would be a little weird to only have one room with dull color...

WE'RE HAVING A BOY!
There is someone growing below my belly button who will one day be a man with thoughts and feelings! Isn't that amazing? I think it's amazing.
Well. Don't mind me. I'm just a bit giddy.

I'm a little alarmed. Up until now, I've felt a few flutters, but now it's like the kid is river-dancing in there. Or maybe they just wanted me out of bed at five in the morning, since that's when it started. It's very hard to sleep with someone high kicking you in the ribs.
I just hope he or she is facing the right way next week, so they can get their picture taken and I can stop hearing the phrase 'gender neutral'.

I've never been happier that we have access to the MTN. Otherwise, visiting my family would be difficult. Thanks to Desmond, I don't overly trust boats or planes. So instead, I get zapped across the country in a heartbeat. It's quick, and it's convenient.
But if my baby comes out all rearranged, I'm going to be pissed.

On the first day of the new year, I considered doing one of those cheesy bits where you look back on how much has changed during the last year. I started typing up some long thing, but decided to go with the short and sweet version instead.
If someone had told me then that I'd be hearing a fictional voice in my head, I'd have laughed myself silly. Not to mention what I would have said if they'd told me I'd found a wonderful man (who was not my boyfriend at the time...) and that we were expecting a baby. Or that I'd gone to space, or even painted my kitchen blue.
You know, it was really that reincarnation bit that changed everything. Without Desmond popping up, none of that would have happened. So I guess he's probably about the best thing that could have happened to me. Okay, second best. Maybe third. But he's up there.
What I'm really trying to say here is: Happy New Year, everyone. Make it one worth remembering.

Why do these websites keep comparing growing babies to food? 'Your baby is about the size of a lima bean.' 'Your baby is about the size of a lime.'
Now all I can picture is a lime in there.
And now I'm hungry.

I don't mean to alarm anyone, but...am I the only one missing something?
And by something, I mean the charming Scottish voice in my head. This isn't some part of reincarnate pregnancy that no one told me about, is it?

I should never have watched Lost again, but it was all tempting and online.
The dreams were freakishly vivid last night. I blame the show on the fact that I got absolutely no decent sleep. Not to mention the incessant Desmond commentary that came every time I woke up. They're dreams about your crazy ass memories. They don't mean anything. Kindly shut up.
I think I'll spend the rest of my break napping under a table. Don't wake me unless you come bearing tea.

My youngest brother turns seventeen this weekend. Aren't they supposed to stay all small and cute forever? Now he's about a foot taller than me on top of everything else. It's terrifying how close he is to being an adult.
Then again, it's terrifying that I am (theoretically) an adult. Hmmm.
