I prefer thin crust, myself, but thick crust is more filling.

I love thick crust, but I almost never get it.
My mom went dieting and gets thin all the time.
Most people seem to love thin more.

See, that's a fallacy of thinking (thin crust over thick crust). If you get thick crust, you get full quicker, eating more bread which is fewer calories than toppings, whereas thin crust you need to eat more pieces to get full, eating more of the higher calorie toppings.

I fully agree. xDD
I tried to tell her that but she doesn't get it.
Whatever, I've left for college now anywho. =P

My mom's always dieting too, has been ever since I can remember. She'd do all the weird diets when I was growing up, but she's gotten better about it now. (Her new thing is the wii fit, but I've tried that out and fully support it.)

On another subject, my work mail is being annoyingly inconsistent. We switched to a new server and I didn't get any mail for several days. Finally, I checked the old server, and my mail was arriving there. So, I started checking there, and then a few days ago it, without any warning, switched back to the new server.

I want Wii Fit. For now I have DDR.

That's really weird. o-O

I'm sure people are working on it and I just haven't been informed.

Off to bed now. <33 Have a good night.

Good night!

I have Wii Fit, but I haven't tried it out. After Christmas we cleaned and cleaned until going to Wisconsin, and then the whole pregnancy and nausea thing hasn't left me with much oomph.

Soon though. Exercise = good.

On an amusing note, my nephew has a wake-up process nearly exactly like mine. Zombie shuffle, face covered with the back of the hands, squinting with one eye open until life becomes bearable. :XD

I slept like shit. I'm not sure why, either. I think it's because I kept thinking it was 6:30 when it was anything but. I'm not good with alarms. I always wake up, over and over. A nap is in order today.

I hear yah Chi. I haven't had the best sleep last night either. Gonna take a few cups of coffee to snap me out of it. :P

Coffee would be great. Alas...

As soon as the post office opens up, we'll go run some errands and pick up groceries. I want juice.

You can't have coffee, can you? Cause of the caffeine? I dunno, but I think there's lots of things you're not suppose to eat/drink while preggers right?

Yeah. They say that it's probably okay in moderation, but I'm going to wait until I'm out of the miscarriage zone before I have a cup once in a while. I think I'm just miserable (headaches) because I'm weening OFF of the stupid stuff.

I can't have sodium nitrate either. I need to find nitrate-free bacon. I really want a breakfast sandwich. :XD

Man if I had to go cold turkey off Coffee I would totally be in a world of trouble. I'd be having headaches and feeling miserable cause it's like an elixir for me. :XD

Same here. xD I love coffee.

I do have decaf, but it's not the same. I've only had one iced drink with that and soy milk since finding out. I haven't felt like it.

Man all the things you can't do...I guess in the end it'll be very much worth it. You gotta tell me what it's like being a paternal mother. I only have the experience of being step-mom. I love being step-mom, but sometimes I wonder...and I wonder if it's an immediate bond, or if it's one that takes time.

I'm starting to think it's not going to happen for us. Husband keeps on hinting at getting snipped but says he doesn't want to take that away from me. I'm sorry, but if he's against it I'm not going to drag him into it...

I'll let you know, but regardless of what will go on with me, every woman is different. My sister was too ill after giving birth to my nephew to get that solid maternal bonding. She tried, but she wasn't herself for at least 6 months. The photos of her are awful. No color, ghastly, etc.

I, on the other hand, bonded with him immediately. So it's funny how that goes. Who knows what will happen with my own. I'd like to think it'll be sunshine and daisies, but doesn't every new mother? I'll give it my best though.

How often do you and your hubby talk about having kids? I suppose with him having 2, he might feel he has his hands full, but if you'll be unhappy in the long-run without a baby, it's something to seriously discuss. I hope whatever happens, it'll be what you both want. :hug:

Yah that's kind of his feeling - he's gone through the experience twice, so he's had his fill. If he had another it'd be totally for 'my benefit' and he'd be kinda drug through it. I'm kind of torn, as I do feel this kind of urge to, but at the same time I'm not willing to sacrifice our relationship to make it happen. I enjoy our time alone as a couple, but I enjoy family life too. I guess I feel like it's the best of both worlds right now and I've learned to make the best of the situation.

It hurts at times...because their mother is always so quick to point out that the kids aren't mine, and that I have no say as to what goes on in their lives.

Which is unfair, since you love them and take care of them. ~_~;

I guess life is unfair....

I look at it this way, if life hadn't turned out the way it did, I might not of met my husband and we might not have ever been. Kids have made a tremendous impact on his life and made him who he is today.

I'm hoping to finish up my education and get a job working with kids. I think if I could make a difference in children's lives through my job, I'll feel a sense of fulfillment. I would of really loved to try and change the system on how the friend of the court (otherwise known as family court in other states) works, as I think it's corrupt as hell and fathers should have equal opportunity to take custody.

I agree with you there. There's a lot of stigma surrounding fathers, which is silly. There are inept parents of both sides, male and female. There are good and bad on both sides, yet the mother always seems to get the benefit of the doubt.

I'm hoping that when you get your degree secured and can work one-on-one with kids, you'll also get a sense of fulfillment. :3

I figure there are so many kids born that could use someone to make it a better world for them. That sounds so unbelievably corny, but hopefully you've looked past that. :P

It's true though. <3

I'll be back later. Have a good time working. :hug:

Okie take care and speak to you soon. xx :hug:

I have an eggplant hibiscu I could sell you.
