I must say… I think I’ve been better than “your average pregnant girl”. That’s not to say I’m perfect by any means but then again I have been really lucky though out my pregnancy. Had I been throwing up the whole time I probably would have been a raving bitch. I see pregnant women on a regular basis who throw temper tantrums in Motherhood maternity and their poor husbands are only trying to help, and. again, that’s not to say I haven’t had my moments but I do try and keep the hormones under wraps. I’ve never sent the husband out in the middle of the night for something I had to have like in those “I want something cheesy, melty, crunchy” whatever Taco Bell commercials. In fact… tonight was my first ever midnight craving and I was a big girl and drove myself. I headed down to the local Sonic… the nearest one being less than a mile from my house. I drive up, it’s 11:58 and there are cars galore in the parking spaces and just a couple cars in the drive though… so I whip around and take my place in line at the drive though. I pull up to the order menu and sit there for a min or two and the bastards shut the light off and refuse to take my order. Clearly, they themselves have never been pregnant nor have any of them ever had a pregnant wife to deal with. I chose to keep the raging hormonal bitch under control and drive to the next Sonic… aprox 4 miles from this one. Thank goodness they were still open because I couldn’t think of another one by my house and at that point I would have had to settle for some other burger joint and lets face it,pregnant or not, nothing compares to a strawberry lime slush which happens to be what had me out at midnight in the first place. Let me tell you, it was completely worth driving to two Sonics =)
And now on to a completely different topic:
As I hopped in my car the clock read 11:55pm and the temperature gauge read 98 degrees and this is a cool night compared to those to come in late July. No matter how long I live in AZ I will never get used to leaving the house in the summer time at night and it’s still almost 100 degrees or more outside. It’s insane! As I was out driving around I saw several people out for bike rides, jogging and dog walking like it was 8am on a cool, crisp Saturday morning…. I guess when its 110+ for weeks straight it’s just not logical to live your life during the day time anymore! It’s madness enough to be here during the summer let alone living your 3rd trimester in the brunt of it. I am SOOO planning this out better next time around!
