I'm on my hour lunch break from work today. I am extremely pissed off, as usual. Not only did I get an attitude from this angry woman this morning because she wanted me to open up HER gift card that was still packaged to pay for her things, but also Burger King's cups are the worst fucking cups i've ever used in my life. This woman hands me this visa gift card when it comes to paying for her whole order, and it's still wrapped up & packaged in what it came in. I questioned her and she said that her daughter gave it to her and she wanted to pay with it. She said she didn't know how to get it open. Alright.. i'm going to pretend like it's my job to stop in the middle of a line of customers to tear out YOUR card to pay for your items. I walked several isles down before I finally found some scissors and tried to cut it out, but the packaging it was in wouldn't separate. I came back and told the woman "i'm sorry but, it's not my job to get this open for you and if I accidentally cut your card trying to get to it, I would be held responsible and I don't want to be." She got mad and snappy and said "Fine, my daughter won't be happy about it but i'll just pay with cash. You guys shouldn't sell those if you can't use them." I was heated by this point. I said "I hope you're not mad at me because that didn't even come from our store and it's not my job to open them up for you so that you can pay with it." Not one response after that. Whatever lady, get a clue and get your shit together.
After I went on lunch, I was starving so I dropped by Burger King on the way to my mom's house where I am now. I ordered an iced coffee because i've been doing really well keeping no caffeine in my system so I decided it would be okay just this one time. As usual, it never fails. Every fucking time I used to get an iced coffee from there, the piece of shit cups they use always spill. If you tip it just the slightest bit to wear the coffee meets the brim of the cup even with the lid on it, you're going to be wearing your drink. I was so fucking mad. The woman said "What's wrong, you don't like it?" I said "No. Your cups suck! I'm wearing my drink now, all over my work clothes." She just stared at me and said she was sorry. Meanwhile i'm holding my drink with coffee all over my fucking clothes, OBVIOUSLY needing some goddamn assistance. I'm like "can I get some napkins!?" She said "oh, absolutely!" I swear. I don't understand what is wrong with the world these days.
I'd like to burn down Walmart, Burger King, and any other piece of shit corporation that only cares about taking your money. And all the customers think about is making you feel like shit the rest of your miserable shift.
Today is not a good day.

Yay!
Today I went to the doctor to get my blood drawn for testing, finally! They actually called me this morning at 8:30, an hour before I had to be there to cancel and reschedule my appointment because of the weather. I was so pissed, thinking back on how long i've already waited to get this over with so I can continue on with my next appointments. They claimed they would open at 1PM and call me back to set a new scheduled date. Of course, I never got a call back. I called at 1:10 and got a message saying they wouldn't be open until 1 and to call back after that time. Uhh, d'oh! I'm glad everyone knows how to do their job. I called again at 2:30 to see if they could get me in today and luckily, they were able to at 3:15. It seemed to work out just perfectly. I rushed over there with my mom and niece since we were already out together, and they took five tubes. I thought I was just going to die of how deeply disturbed I was over the whole thing. I can't stand blood. It just makes me freak out to the max.
Anyway, I have my next official appointment on the 23rd to actually meet with my doctor. I'm really excited. I feel like time is going by super slow though. I'm hoping they'll at least check for the heartbeat so I can get some kind of reassurance that everything is okay down there. I'm able to get my ultrasound exactly five weeks from today at the earliest, making it 20 weeks. That will be the big day I absolutely cannot wait for. I'm a little nervous for my next appointment on the 23rd as I have decided to keep in my nipple piercings for now. If I decide to breastfeed once I get closer to the due date, i've decided i'm going to see how easily I can take the bars in & out inbetween feedings as i've read other women who have had them suggested. By that point, I will have had them for a year and a half. It's something that makes me feel a little more confident in my self-image, and I don't think I could bare getting them repierced if I just took them out for months. Especially with scar tissue built up. I'm a big baby when it comes to piercings. But I would definitely never attempt to breastfeed with them in. I've read that it can cause problems for the baby and also be a major choking hazard if it were to come loose. Anyway, this is why i'm nervous about the appointment. I'm sure they will probably want to examine my breasts and well, let's face it: doctors don't exactly approve of body piercings. Nonetheless, on a pregnant woman in such a delicate area. I have decided that I want to invest in some threadless Tygon bars, which are supposed to be very flexible and much more comfortable. And the fact that they're threadless, it shouldn't be painful putting them back in as other non-threadless bars are. I'd like to get them before the appointment, but it depends on how this week goes for me. They are definitely the bars I would want to use for awhile though, especially during the time of (if I decide to) breastfeeding.
I was weighed today, the first time since before I got pregnant. Apparently i've gained ten pounds in the last three months. Which is absolutely shocking to me of course because i've been the same weight for a few years now. I've never been able to gain more weight than a whopping 105 pounds. It's so funny to me. I know where it's all going though: this growing belly and the new boulders sitting on my chest. And to add to it, i've also went up a bra size. I was originally a 34C. I am now already a 36D. It terrifies me a little bit. Hah! On the downfall, I still suffer from persistent headaches almost every single morning and occasionally throughout the day. I'm still keeping up with my gummy prenatal vitamins, that are absolutely delicious might I add. Sometimes. One thing that kills me though at least at some point on a daily basis is pelvic pain. I was reading up on it and it's due to the relaxin that your body starts to produce when you become pregnant, which temporarily softens the bones down there so that they can be prepared for giving birth. Well unfortunately, my pelvis seems to shift alot, causing great pain for me. Sometimes I can go hours standing, walking, doing whatever and feel perfectly fine. Other times it will literally just come at me from nowhere. Once I sit down, I feel fine. But if I stand back up even an hour later, it's usually still there. Yesterday it was so bad before I went to work that I found myself limping. It generally occurs more on one side than the other. It's almost always been on the left side, but here recently also on the right side. It hurts to put pressure on the leg that is on the same side as the pain is. Also, slightly bending over hurts aswell. I have found no stretching or back popping of any sort to be relieving or helpful in any way. Unfortunately, it just comes and goes and the most random and sometimes worst times.
I've been staying at my mother's house for about two weeks now. Don't ask me why, I really have no idea. I suddenly just feel the desire to be around her alot more. My sister's been taking care of my dog at the house while i've been gone. I ask her how he's doing and if he needs any food or anything. He seems to be fine just like he always is. I really fear that I may have to get rid of him the closer I get to my pregnancy or once the baby gets here. I will hopefully be living by myself at that point, and I just fear he won't be able to get as much attention as I used to give him. I already seem to be neglecting him and I feel really bad about it. If it comes down to it, I will leave him with my sister. She loves him very much and likes having him around.
Anyway, I have to be at work in the morning so I need to be getting off here. The picture i'll be posting on the bottom was taken a few days ago on December 12th.

I seem to be getting more & more distant from blogging as of lately. I just haven't really had much happen since the last time I posted. Aside from finally registering in my brain that Chris doesn't deserve any excuses anymore as to why he acts the way he does, nothing really has changed. I've still been working almost daily, and on the days i'm off I generally still have to get up and do something productive. On the upside, I rarely get motion-sickness anymore unless i'm starving or I get up extremely early in the morning. I'm still making more frequent trips to the bathroom to pee excessively. However, within the past week I seem to be starting a pattern: headaches everytime I wake up in the morning. Sometimes they eventually fade away, but other times I have to take something before it stops hurting. I woke up at 10:30 AM this morning and my head hasn't stopped hurting yet. So i'm about to take some tylenol. Yipee.
It's snowing outside as I type this. The first snow of the season, so you can imagine everyone's enthusiasm about it. I personally, could care less. I don't really like the snow. It's pretty to look at, but it's just another excuse for people to drive as slow as molasses on the roads. And since I hate the cold so much, I have no desire to go outside and play in it. I think I lost that many years ago.
Within the past week, I have joined a popular mother website called baby-gaga. I really like it. It's nice to talk on the forums about different topics and meet other women like yourself. Unfortunately you still have to be careful though because even with age, women never stop being dramatic.
Oh! I bought some chewy prenatal vitamins yesterday since I can't swallow the big pills most women take and surprisingly, they taste good too! I'm much more enthused about taking them now. Ugh, i'm going to get off here now. I need to take these pills for my head and go get Rojo some dog food before I goto work at four. I'm not enthused about that..
