Not kicking yet

I'm in awe with the knowledge of my first offspring growing inside. Peanut has started to roll around, I felt it already a couple of weeks ago. Seems hubby's enthusiastic as well, he wants to know when Peanut's moving. It's not clear everytime.... sometimes it's just passing wind.
Hilarious, right?

We told the rest of our family about Peanut at the Christmas dinner. It was amazing how they were surprised and awed. Then it was time for asking all these questions... "Why didn't you tell before? You've known about this for a long time. When did you know you were having a baby? Was it a long process?" Whew. I had prepared for some questions but few of them took me by surprise so I had to come up with politically correct answers. I'm not the-centre-of-the-universe-kinda person so it was a little aqward when everyone's focus is on you. It all went well, though.

The second ultrasound is due in two weeks so we get to see how Peanut's been doing and possibly learn whether it's a he or she. We'll see...

Butterflies in my tummy

Well, one at least.

Peanut has started to move around. Today I was sitting comfortably in the living room arm chair, watching telly with hubby when something did move inside me! It was a gentle brush against my uterus wall, like a feather brush but a little stronger. My eyes went saucer-sized and I whispered to hubby on the sofa that something moved! I was amazed how early it was but I was sure of what it was.

Spreading the news

We had a staff meeting in Dec. Right before, my boss pulls me to side and says maybe I should tell the other about this condition of mine so they wouldn't have to wonder about my random absences. I was a bit shaken afterwards... In the meeting when boss asked if there's anything we wanna add, I opened my mouth and said: "As an info, me and my secret passenger are due June 4th", I added, "It hasn't been very long so I'd appreciate it if you kept it to yourselves for a while". All but one congratulated :) She realized why I hadn't done a job I was once supposed to do, that she was now stuck with.
So, after the meeting I went to see my uncle who's working in the same building and told him. He shook my hand and congratulated. I told him about my mom and dad's reactions and said I was still going to be around for a while.

A Few Friends

Told a few friends at the work today. One of them came to our tea break and popped the question: "When are you planning to procreate?". I was gobsmacked. I wanted to shoot back and say "June 4th". I talked myself out of it. A female co-worker and I said to this male co-worker that you couldn't ask such question. Then he said: "You and your husband have been together for a long time now, so isn't it natural?". When some people exited the room, I confessed: "As a matter of fact, just between us, we're due June 4th". They all looked at me in awe. The female co-worker congratulated. So, I went to tell another female co-worker who wasn't there when I told the others. She was so amazed she didn't congratulate and she sent an IM later saying sorry she didn't. :)

Strange awakenings

Week 11, I woke up very early and toss and turned until it was about time to press the alarm clock. On Tuesday, 4am. On Wednesday, 3am. I was wondering whether it would be Thursday, 2pm but I took Peanut to sauna and we both slept like babies through the next night. I couldn't think of a reason why I woke up so early... no stress or anything... so I blame it on Peanut :) I bet he/she went rolling around in my tummy so I couldn't sleep the whole night. Yeah, that's it.

Sauna

I don't know where I read about it, I think somewhere was noted that pregnant women shouldn't go to sauna because of the heat. I didn't, until my neck went so bad I had to stay home for the horrible headache. I googled sauna and pregnancy and found a Finnish health site where it said there's no risk. So, Peanut and I had our first sauna Nov 16th.

Passing morning sickness....not

Week 10, I had two days of no nausea or vomiting what so ever. I was ever so happy!
It didn't last for long...Nov 11th nausea hit again. Hubby bought me apples and müsli bars to eat because of the constant nausea. They helped, have to admit...

A Dachshund Dream - Mammoth Bone

Other days Daisy the Dachshund finds sticks to chew but came one day she had to blink twice. She found a 13-inch mammoth bone. Needless to say, the mammoth bone is at least 1,75 million years old and contains no nutrition for Daisy :)

First ultrasound

I had serious doubts whether this was real or not and as I had experienced some cramps, I had a doctor's appointment for an ultrasound. There it was, something resembling a peanut, with a heartbeat. The peanut was alive, right where he/she should be, in my womb, everything okay. I didn't cry or have a hysterical outburst. I looked at the monitor and was pleased. Everything's okay so far.

As I left for work, I sent a text message to hubby saying "Houston, we have a heartbeat."

From mom&dad to being grandparents

Six weeks

Told my mom yesterday about Peanut. Went to have a mother-daughter day, drank some tea and as we were talking I said she was going to be a granny. Her eyes watered and we both jumped up from the chairs and hugged. My eyes also went Niagara falls on me.

Told dad today, as we were visiting him. His reaction was a big nothing. I think he might've said congrats but I'm not even sure. So we talked about something for a while and then we left.

Horrible...morning.....sickness....

Horrible...ten o'clock....sickness...try a little mineral water.... not helping...

Called mom yesterday and asked if we could have mother-daughter -day on Saturday. If my father cancels our meeting, that is. Talked to him also yesterday. His neighbour had died just two days ago. All considering, he sounded chirpy. He only lies about everything so I've no idea whether he actually wants to see me and hubby 'cause he always says yeah, let's meet and cancels when he realizes we're coming.

How the hell can I tell my mom about the sesame seed before the family get-together? I know she'll act funny. I will have her eliminated if she does. I'll make the point clear if I tell her. This is soooooo important to me and hubby.

Whew... mineral water helped a bit...

Morning sickness, my ass

People always talk about morning sickness. I realized it wasn't just morning sickness when I reached week 6. Oct 11th, I had nausea and womiting all day. It began there and didn't stop until week 14 or 15.

Had an appointment with the ostheopath or however you spell it. I told him straight away I was pregnant and asked whether it would affect my treatment. He said it would a little but closer to week 12 so no worries yet. He was genuinely happy(!) for me! He said congratulations twice and smiled! Wow. I really really like him.

I contacted my local nurse to book the first appointment to see how the pregnancy is going. It's not until the 26th. Hubby's going too.

This is bloody ridiculous, it's day 41 and I've already had morning sickness. Today 5 o'clock and as I came to work I had to run to a faraway restroom so no-one would hear my not-so-feminine-sounds. It's like 229 days until the offspring comes out. The Offspring is sesame seed sized now. I read that somewhere. GAAA.

I was sooooo tired last night I missed my weekly excercise. But I had to go for a walk with hubby and dogs, I would die if I didn't move my fat ass before the birth.

Hubby want's to tell the whole world we're expecting! His cheeks are smiling all the time. I know he's happy. He says he's happy 'cause he sees me happy. Well, I'm happy 'cause he's happy so there we have a loop. So we're maybe telling my father next weekend and hubby's parents the next. I wanted to tell my mother asap but she is somewhat a question mark. We have a family reunion in the shape of doggie welcome party (hubby's uncle and their family took on a pair of homeless dogs) coming in couple of weeks so I know she'd be there all over me and telling everyone she'd be a grandma soon. Goddamnit mom... I need you to shut up about it. I know she doesn't know this yet but I already see myself saying shut up. Hubby's parents though...they're a piece of something else. I know I can rely on them. My sweet little four-pawed babies have been in daycare at hubby's parents and I really can trust their doggy-caring abilities. Hooray for my in-laws!

God forbid. I'm already feeling sick to my stomach.

I was hurt by a co-worker this morning. I know I get hurt easily but this was awful. He was rude to me and I couldn't understand why. I know I didn't say anything wrong, I can remember all the things we said on the phone. I said to him he didn't need to be rude and well....all went downhill. I thought I was being friendly all the way. When the call ended another co-worker came to me and I asked him whether the other has something wrong with him. He said that this other has had PMS for ever since his closer co-worker came back from mothersleave. I was wondering why he poured it down on me since I had done nothing to him. I was almost in tears. Shit. I'm always almost in tears but this "condition" is definitely making it worse.

[ LUNCH ] I had pork, mushroom sauce and mashed potatoes for lunch. Mashed potatoes are a definite favourite but first time in my life I couldn't shove it in! I was caught by the cook with a funny look "You're never getting mashed potatoes again". God, the shame....

So...today: tears, nausea...what else...am I really pregnant?

One line or two?

I went to the pharmacy and bought a test. Went home, took dogs for a walk, washed some clothes, dishes and then I gained enough courage to pee in a bowl. Five minutes it took. I was amazed to see two hole pink lines there. It seems I'm pregnant. Wow. And then it hit me and I cried out of joy like 15 minutes. Hubby came home and saw my pink eys thinking I had my period. I couldn't hide my smile and said I needed a hug and "you'd be daddy soon" :). Well...we have until June next year. If all goes well. Hubby was about to tell everyone. He said it was a status symbol =D heehee... "We did it then" =D His smile was the one thing that made my sooooo happy. He said I should worry of his behaviour when the child is old enough to get on his nerves. And then he realized I was going to be more of a worry than him =D =D =D

Pregnant or not? Day 36.

Today. Today I'm gonna buy a pregnancy test. Ehm.... dare I? It's been seven days since my period was to be but no visible sign of it. Three days now I've had tummy ache and odd pressure. Almost like period but it's been all the time. I have to pee every second hour. I had no migraine when before possible period. I already thought I jinxed it on Sunday as I said to hubby my period hasn't started. This is scary. I didn't want to think of being pregnant. Hubby even said I could have period later because of the amount of stress I've had in the workplace. But I had a major iron diet and the stress has also relieved over the last few weeks.

God, I can't get over the fact this might be it. And I jinxed it again. Of course, it will be a risk pregnancy because of my illness and slight overweight but I'm working on it. Really. 'Cause there might be someone in there who needs me. Please be.

Jen: I did say that on my CV, yes. I have a lot of experience with the whole computer... thing. You know, e-mails, sending e-mails, receiving e-mails, deleting e-mails... I could go on.

Denholm: Do.

Jen: [after a pause] The Web. Using a mouse, mices, using mice. Clicking, double clicking. The computer screen, of course. The keyboard. The... bit that goes on the floor down there.

Denholm: The hard drive.

Jen: Correct.

Denholm: Well, you certainly seem to know your stuff! That's settled. I've got a good feeling about you Jen, and they need a new manager.

Jen: Fantastic! So, the people I'll be working with, what are they like?

Denholm: STANDARD NERDS!

Wrongfully charged and car impouded, The Erasmo Palacios Story

The story goes like this: Erasmo and Rocio Palacios were parked outside a Chicago restaurant when Rocio, the wife, saw a woman waving her hands. They thought she was in distress. Little did they know. The woman leaned in to the passenger side where Rocio was and offered Erasmo sex for various prices. The couple laughed at the matter and saw she wasn't in distress after all. No laughing matter it seems, suddenly police car came and cuffed Erasmo for solicitation of a prostitute. Erasmo spent 8 hours in custody and was then released. Charges were dropped weeks later. Police report, however, says that it was Erasmo who was looking to buy sex. There's no mention of his wife being there and daughter who . Also, officers impounded Palacios's car and threatened to arrest Rocio and their daughter if they tried to stop them. Unbelievable as it seems, the city wants 4700 dollars for towing and storage fees before they return the vehicle. Now, Erasmo is understandably suing the city and the officers involved. Hope he wins.

Ghosts

Saw Ghosts yesterday in Espoo Ciné. Don't know why, really. It scored 7.5 in IMDB. I didn't like it one bit. It was based on a story of a chinese woman (played by Ai Qin Lin) who took a leap to the unknown thinking life would get better. She came to Britain as an illegal immigrant, paid a horrible price of 25000$, got shitty low paid jobs and lived in a shit-hole with dozen other illegal immigrants. Life was wonderful. Some immigrants were captured by police but she and some others went to seaside collecting scolloups. Soon they realized they could only work by night. Then came the tide and the lot of them were stranded on the roof of their vehicle. As waves came higher and higher, they decided to swim ashore. Twenty-something chinese drowned and even fewer ever got back to their families in China.

In the end of the movie, it was stated that many Chinese families were struggling to pay the debts of travel expenses and that England wasn't willing to lend a helping hand. So? Why the hell should they? I wouldn't. They (Chinese folk) came to England illegally and got jobs with forged paperwork. They got into trouble and they are now wondering how to pay it all. So???? That's the risk you take.

If I wasn't so bored with the movie I might've gotten angry. I hope the twelve euros we paid to see the movie didn't go to the Chinese families.

BBC forced to remove 'bastard' slur about Jesus from its website

Oh Sweet Jesus! Umm... Oh Bastard Jesus!

I read a headline BBC stops calling Jesus a bastard in Digg Offbeat News. I thought they (BBC folks) had written something about Jesus being a bastard. No. Actually, it's "member of the public" who wrote:

"Are you a christian? You do know that jesus had to hide all his short life he lived in those promised land because his tribesmen used to call him fatherless, ridiculed him for being a B-A-S-T-A-R-D..."

posted by coloneartist

So, BBC removed the comment and others about jesus being gay...sorry, I meant jesus being a bastard.
I'm awed that the BBC did this. Comment moderation is of course necessary at some point but still.... they can't prove jesus wasn't a bastard so why delete it? :) As an alternative, I don't think closing the topic would've helped, either.

I leave you with a comment from another member of the public (Go, Nathan!):

A ******* is a person whose parents, at the time of their birth, were not married to each other.

So if God was Jesus' father and never married Mary then Jesus was a *******.

It seems strange that those who claim to have the power of the one true God(tm) on their side have such thin skins!

Legal to wee in a police helmet, decapitation for masturbation

I was reading an article in The Daily Telegraph about strange laws around the world. "Well, we've all read those before", I thought. Got surprised though. Here's few:

- You can't place a monarch stamp upside down in England, it's treason.
(understandable...)

- If you're pregnant in UK, you're allowed to wee anywhere, as an example, a police man's helmet is okay.
(If I'm ever pregnant, I would love to see if this is really possible. Should make up a good story for future generations)
IF ANYONE'S ACTUALLY DONE THIS WEE-IN-POLICEMAN'S-HELMET-THINGY, PLEASE REPORT! =)

- Masturbating in Indonesia is punished with decaputation.
(I wonder which head...)

And I quote:
- " In the UK, all men over the age of 14 must carry out two hours of longbow practice a day. "
DO YOU LADS REALLY DO THIS?

Also there seems to be a place you can legally murder someone under strict conditions (I take no responsibility if is false info, in case you're already making plans please check the local authority first), a place where it's illegal to sell toothpaste and -brushes to the same customer on a Sunday, a place where firemen can't rescue women in their nightgowns, a place where criminals are required to inform their victims at least 24 hours before of the crime they are about to commit (Texas), a place where you can't pretend your parents are rich, a place where women can't wear white socks, a place where a man can't fire a weapon while his wife is having an orgasm, a place where you can't have sex with a porcupine and so on...
Of course, majority of these are laws valid in the US :) I know, you weren't surprised!

I love gadgets

So, it all began when... (insert here the music to take you down memory lane)...We had Cartoon Network or whatever way back when I was a little girl. It was Inspector Gadget that was to change everything. I wanted to be Penny so bad. I don't know if my father remembers this but when he was working in a warehouse and I was there pedaling a scooter around the place, I had a Junior Woodchuck Guidebook. I was pretending that it was as good as Penny's Computer Book. Well, it wasn't but I still thought it was the next best thing. I guided myself around the warehouse with it....sounds ridiculous but hey, kids have wonderful imagination.
Since technology has developed since the eighties, I've seen the possibility to become an adult Penny :) And so I've begun the quest trying to find me a perfect gadget.

21. Does a bad mood spread?
Hell yeah. When you lash out at someone for no reason, I bet he or she will feel bad and possibly lash out at someone else.
72. What is God made of?
My guess is: False hopes, weak self-esteems, ridiculous beliefs and probably low IQ's as well. That's what any gods are made of.

My favourite answer was found from PZ Myers' blog, a comment (#13) by Mike:

Within a week and a half after death, the corpse is frozen to minus 18 degrees Celsius and then submerged in liquid nitrogen. This makes the body very brittle, and vibration of a specific amplitude transforms it into an organic powder that is then introduced into a vacuum chamber where the water is evaporated away.
The now dry powder then passes through a metal separator where any surgical spare parts and mercury are removed. In a similar way, the powder can be disinfected if required. The remains are now ready to be laid in a coffin made of corn starch. There is no hurry with the burial itself. The organic powder, which is hygienic and odorless, does not decompose when kept dry. The burial takes place in a shallow grave in living soil that turns the coffin and its contents into compost in about 6-12 months time. In conjunction with the burial and in accordance with the wishes of the deceased or next of kin, a bush or tree can be planted above the coffin. The compost formed can then be taken up by the plant, which can instill greater insight in and respect for the ecological cycle, of which every living thing is a part. The plant stands as a symbol of the person, and we understand where the body went.

Paris Hilton gets 45 days in jail

BBC NEWS | Entertainment | Paris Hilton gets 45 days in jail

Wow. There is justice in this world of ours. Didn't think that would happen.
So...Judge Michael Sauer has balls afterall.

Singing Jared Leto?

I got to know Jared Leto from the tv-series My So-Called Life. I never thought he could sing until I saw the video The Kill by 30 Seconds To Mars. Wow. The boy I remembered from tv had turned into a man who could really sing and did it great. Didn't even look so bad with black eye liner...

So....a lesson to be learned. I shouldn't label people for the rest of their days for what they've done before. I was sceptic the last time I heard an actor went into music...Keanu Reeves it was. I don't even know how he does in the industry. I have been sceptic every time singers have gone into acting.... for a good reason, I'm afraid. They can't all sing, dance and act.

Is it forbidden to have sex with a dead deer?

You tell me. Well, no....uhm, it's a job for a US justice system. We all prefer what we prefer, some like men, some women, some children, some animals. This guy just seems to like animals. It's just sad (I think) that he found this deer on the roadside and thought he should have sex with it. Now he has to go to court for it.

This is only my opinion...but if someone has to have sex with an animal.....I think it's best they look for the dead, so they do no harm to the living.

Pope is mad for EU, ay?

What are we, living in the Middle Ages? Our dear beloved....oh wait, your dear beloved (not mine) Pope has criticised (not only lightly but strongly) the European Union for not mentioning god (during the 50th anniversary festivities). The EU is "thus doubting its own identity". WHAAAAT? How dare he? Who is he to say the modern union should thank god for its existance? Okay, admit that christianity has been a major influence in the past but christianity has stolen many things from pagans. Therefore, this current Pope person should also be worried why the EU hasn't thanked pagans for its existance.

In this modern world, where science plays a huge role and less people believe in things like "intelligent design", I can't see why we should thank a two-thousand-year-old belief? Yes, we are what we are because of the history. But ehm...do we need to thank every single happening between now and The Big Bang? Science moves on and we learn new things about old things we thought we already knew thoroughly. So again, why should we listen to an 80-year-old sad man who is not out of this world and is scared of the modern developing world? Yeah, religion is the work place that is shutting down next.
