wow this post turned out a lot about babies

Yesterday I ran to the grocery store by my work to get some lunch. As usual, it was super busy. The hurried cashier asked me how I was, and I said I was fine, thank you, how are you? I guess that little bit of courtesy was enough for her to only charge me for the gum I bought. She didn't scan the frozen dinner or trash bags- definitely not a mistake. I didn't notice until I was walking out and looked at my receipt. Sweet. Lesson: always be nice to the cashier.

WARNING: GIRL TALK AHEAD. Boys, I don't want to hear anything about how you were forced to read this. I know you're going to read it anyway though, haha.

So, I'm officially producing my own hormones, being off the pill for a few days. I've noticed I'm more tired and I'm breaking out. I feel like I'm back to that grease-face stage during puberty. That, and I'm randomly spotting and it's super annoying because I don't want my panties stained. One of my goals in life is to have just a few pairs of non-stained panties. Just when I think I'm safe, my own body revolts, gah. Only last night did I realize that it was probably due to that change. I mean, I've been on the pill for 5 years straight now and I'm sure my body's got to adjust.

Speaking of, I was watching that tv show about chicks who didn't know they were pregnant until they gave birth- it made me all paranoid even though I know I have nothing to worry about. Anyway, how nuts is that? One minute everything is hunky dory and the next you're popping out a kid into the toilet. Crazy. I knew a lady who was about 6 months pregnant and didn't know it- and she'd had 2 kids before. She went to the doctor for backaches and turns out she was pregnant! I guess unless the typical, tell-tale signs are there, you don't really have a reason to think about it.

And speaking of babies, I'm pretty excited to become an "auntie" again. 2 of my good friends have babies on the way! They're both going to be cute pregnant ladies, tiny except for a huge belly.
