HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

So, a few things for today’s post, I’ll go right to it. See that picture I posted? Well, that’s my Tim Burton/ Halloween nail art. I’m particularly proud of it cause I’m getting good at this nail art thing. I also got pretty good at keeping my teeth off my fingernails massacring them like I usually did. As a constant nervous wreck (think of me as a fraidy cat) I tend to bite my nails, it’s so normal to me that I don’t even notice.

Anyhoo, there’s my nail art, hope you like it. I took inspiration from other examples on halloweenie nail art and then did what I liked the most and/ or seemed easier.

Also, here’s a picture of my right index finger nail art because I feel it deserves an honorable mention, being that I did it using my left hand, and I’m a righty. I know of a friend who’d say this is my rendition to Bob Ross. She’s probably not wrong.

I have no picture- taking skills what-so-ever

On another subject, I’m kinda bummed out this year cause I didn’t get to go to any Halloween costume party and I was really looking forward to one. I had my whole costume planned, although I am glad I didn’t buy any of the material I was going to use in advance, because then I’d be pissed as well as disappointed. My costume idea? First I thought about an over-the-top circus ring master, but then I thought dressing as Honey Boo- Boo would’ve been way funnier. I was going to make my own version of the go go juice (just add vodka or whatever).

Alas, my dream of dressing up this year has been crushed. Although the go go juice can still be done. Cheers to that!

Well, I guess that’s it for today. Ooh! My sister has been attending these classes for pregnant ladies, don’t know what it’s called, it’s not Lamaze, anyway, I’ve been going with her and her husband, and today’s the last class. Of course, being a class and all, they had homework for today, which was to make up a situation that could happen during labor and if it doesn’t apply to their baby’s birth plan, to learn how to negotiate with the OB-GYN in charge.

I have no idea what my sister came up with, but what I understood from the assignment is that one should think about the worst case scenario and play it out. Probably ‘cause it’s Halloween, the one I came up with has to do with stuff I’ve seen from cheap horror films, not an actual medical situation. Which, in perspective should make the other scenarios seem like a picnic, don’tcha think?

HELLO? IS ANYONE STILL THERE?

Here I am, posting again, after what was a reeeeally long time, right? The last two weeks my Mom was visiting and, in all honesty, I really focused on spending my time with her. Anyways, her vacation is now over, and I have extra time on my hands, which I will use to write about some terrifying stuff. Also, I was kind of threatened to write soon, so here it goes.

Remember I told you about my sister being pregnant and all? Well, she’s still doing that, and during her pregnancy she’s been reading a lot about the subject. Stuff like what to expect when…  meh, you know the rest.

Still, I think it’s amazing everything she’s learning and then some. Aah, but I promised you a terrifying story, didn’t I? Well, you see, my sister wants to keep me informed about interesting articles she stumbles while doing her research. Among the various types of articles and blogs she sends me links to, she sent me this one. Read it by all means. I'll wait.

In general, I liked the blog and the author’s humor, but that article was just not for me. As I kept reading, I could almost feel parts of my body bullying my uterus into quitting and my tubes into tying themselves. Yes, that’s how afraid that post made me feel about carrying a life for 9 months and then letting it out into the world. The process, and the afterwards is just… no. My entire body went like this.

But I don’t want to leave this post in such a depressing note. So, ummm...

Nope, no way to recover from that.

Um… Good luck, sis!
