Thursday - the third day. Monday (one day) Tuesday (two day) Wednesday (what day?) Thursday (the third day!)

Ahhh its THURSDAY. I love Thursdays! I love them almost as much if not more than Fridays! Maybe because I know my week is almost at an end and it gives me something to look forward too.

OR - Maybe its because Thursday has a great TV line-up AND Jonathan finally comes home for good after his month in London! WOO HOO!

So - I've been realizing that even though we are in 2008 people still very much treat pregnancy as an illness. Its true. I've looked up the definition of being Pregant:

preg⋅nant
1   /ˈprɛgnənt/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [preg-nuhnt]
–adjective
1. having a child or other offspring developing in the body; with child or young, as a woman or female mammal.

2. fraught, filled, or abounding (usually fol. by with): a silence pregnant with suspense.

3. teeming or fertile; rich (often fol. by in): a mind pregnant in ideas.

4. full of meaning; highly significant: a pregnant utterance.

5. of great importance or potential; momentous: a pregnant moment in the history of the world.


At work everytime I make a good point (which is often as I am GREAT at my job! haha) people say things like " You're just saying that because you're pregnant."

When I get annoyed with shockingly stupid clients, I hear things like " You're just mad because you are pregnant". NO - what I am really ANGRY about it that I am smart, they are not and just because I am capable of breeding does not make me mentally unstable....today anyway.

So thats it for now - Pregnant ladies aren't sick - they're just plain old KNOCKED UP. Its been going on for years - DEAL WITH IT! ; )

Have a good day!

p.s - My favourite definition is #5. Damn right I am of great importance and potential! I need a cookie...
