Nothing
I think Erik may be adjusting to the idea of the baby. He hasn’t had another fit about it and when we’ve discussed it, he’s been calm. Last night he came up and told me he has a baby girl in his belly. I think that must be a good sign. Later he told me that it was going to be in his belly for thirty years, then it was going to come out his butt. Then he parted his naked butt and showed me. That wasn’t so impressive. Aren’t kids supposed to get modest around age 4?
Is that all I have tonight? I do believe it is.
But what is a queen of rambles post without a ramble? Nothing! I’ll have to put on my thinking cap and figure out a thought. I have very little thoughts in my blank head tonight.
The other day I randomly watched an episode of In Plain Sight and enjoyed it. Nothing fabulous, but I set it to record on the DVR and it looked like there were a few episodes a day playing. I just checked and suddenly there is nothing. No more re-runs showing anywhere. No big loss, but I just thought it was odd that they were on daily and now there’s nothing.
We have a really amazing opportunity based purely on knowing people via LJ that I’m really excited about. We might get a free trip to Sweden! It all depends on Mike’s schedule. My mom is going to kick my ass if we spend another Christmas in Sweden, but if the trip is free she can’t get too mad. I haven’t spent a Christmas in Oregon since I moved to Sweden in 2001 and that isn’t likely to change any time soon. We go back there a lot, but it just doesn’t make sense to shell out so much for Christmas travel. The tickets can literally be 4 times as much as a January ticket. When you’re buying three tickets, that really adds up. No matter the time of year, it is actually cheaper for us to fly to Sweden than the airport in my hometown. We could probably fly into Portland for around the same price, but then we still have a six hour drive ahead of us. By the time you factor in hotel rooms, gas and sitting in a car for that long it just isn’t worth it.
I’m not going to say anything else about the details, just that it will be really cool if this actually happens. I wasn’t going to say anything at all, but I’ve got nothing else to talk about.
