clive davis, on the elevator with me. as i was pulling down my sleeves to put on a cardigan, he said, “so, you literally roll up your sleeves to come to work.” i replied, “absolutely,” with a smile (b/c i’m really eloquent like that).
the happiest baby ever, on the subway. she was laughing and clapping and making all these strangers smile along with her. too cute.

self-diagnosis
ok so an update on that gestational diabetes thing…
i went for the 2nd test - the 3 hour test - on monday. basically the worst possible thing happened which was that i got about 8-9 ounces through the completely disgusting 10oz. sugar shock drink, and then proceeded to give it all back. (sorry, so gross.)
i thought maybe they’d just make me drink another one right there, but she...
Bad day for njt to totally eff up - I have a big, important meeting. Eek!

this is SO great. i spend a lot of $ having the stoppers (as i’ve always (perhaps incorrectly) referred to them) repaired. i really never bothered to look into doing it myself. this is brilliant.
Yeterday’s day of “fasting” and atonement didn’t go at all as planned. I’ll have extra to be sorry for next year.
The new spring cleaning!
thanks jaclyn for this link!! as crazy as it sounds, i can’t wait to get started on some quality fall cleaning. especially as we’ve just had some construction done inside the house, so it’s even more important right now.
via jaclynday:
Real Simple magazine has a great Fall Cleaning Checklist on their website
i’m in one of those stupid moods where everything is annoying. not exactly sure how to shake it.
send cake? :-\
Progress on the closet is very evident now and might even be done tomorrow!!
108 seconds between us and 3-0. J-E-T-S jets jets jets
This is quite a nail-biting jet game now. Ugh, hurry up 2:18…
Watching football with my suddenly very sick husband. Doctor told him we shouldn’t even really be in the same house. Bummer.
Greg is requiring that we sleep in different rooms tonight, and I’m really not happy about it.
On my way hoooome! Yay Friday. Although a little afraid of what I’ll find - our bedroom is under construction.
Yiiiiikes!!! RT @TFLN: (816): I accidentally asked my mom for a blowjob because ‘mom’ and ‘molly’ are next to each other in my address book.
belly bar
well, it was predictably not THAT amazing, not when compared to, like, a *real* chocolate bar. but when compared to many nutrition bars, it was good.
definitely large enough to satisfy, and it’s hearty and chewy which i liked a lot. i’ll… definitely eat the other 4 ;-)
buy it again? hmm… we’ll see.
Aw crap I did not dress warmly enough on top today. Very chilly :-( and no point in lunchtime shopping since it’ll be 70 by then!
A fat woman literally just sat on me!
Dinner and Grey’s with @KrissiMay !! Very excited
just an all around sad day
my father just called me to tell me some “important news” (so his email said).
when i spoke to him, he first asked how i was doing, b/c he wanted to make sure i was feeling ok… after i told him about the dr visit this morning he said, “well i wanted to let you know that i just found out uncle ed died last night.”
i started tearing up right away… but when we...
I am an annoying smug pregnant bitch
georgiegirlnyc:
BEFORE BEING PREGNANT
Non-pregnant Me: How far along are you?
Pregnant woman: 15 weeks.
Non-pregnant me: (Grits teeth and calculates in head) Oh, so like almost 4 months.
Pregnant woman: Yes
Non-pregnant me: (Why didn’t you just say that in the first place, you annoying smug pregnant bitch).
NOW THAT I’M PREGNANT
Non-pregnant friend: How far along are you?
Pregnant me:...

oh man, i have always loved the dalai lama… but this is just icing on his already very cool cake.
Ack, almost forgot (til just now) that I have to be up eeeextra early for a dr appt in the morning. Schluf gusunt.
‘Eastwick’ reminded me of more old-school shows. I wasn’t expecting to like it, but I’m drawn in. I love (new) tv wayyy too much.
WOW muggy out! Was definitely not expecting that.
Some girl, apparently from Livingston, just recognized me on the train, but didn’t say who she was. I have NO freakin clue. Weird.
arrrgghh
totally forgot about the u2 show at the meadowlands tonight. guess i should have planned to take a later train.
it’s great that njt started a light rail from secaucus to the venue, but couldn’t they run additional trains to secaucus during rush hour so the actual *commuters* wouldnt have to stand?
at least secaucus is the first stop. then this train will empty out and maybe...
it's getting more and more real...

Coffee and a donut totally perked up my mood. Low blood sugar = cranky Judi.
Vespa Update
georgiegirlnyc:
I received this email from Jen last weekend (after stating on Twitter that I had ridden my Vespa to Bryant Park).
Let me preface this with, I say this out of love and extreme concern:
When the hell are you going to stop riding the vespa in your pregnant state?!?!
She asks a valid question. I did check with my doctor and he tells me that 17 weeks is my cut off. I’m trying not...
“A change in the weather is sufficient to recreate the world and ourselves.”
– Marcel Proust
happy autumn! obviously there are some huge changes coming in my own life, and i will be ‘recreated’ whether i’m really ready or not! but i believe i am ready, and i’m certainly very, very excited. and as far as changing the world? i obviously can’t...
awww
just went into the little coffee shop at the train station, and the owner asked how i was feeling. then she says, “i know you must be excited but your husband is ECSTATIC. i think he can’t wait to spoil that baby.”
(and i can’t wait to see it.)
8 hrs in the fridge and that package of chicken is *still* not defrosted?! Does that mean the fridge is too cold?
