Can't help but notice the forums are slower than usual of late. Soooo, if you're not wasting time here, what are you doing? Working? Pullin' it? Sculpting? Windexing? Writing? Fixing? Lounging? Stewing?
I have been preoccupied with getting my home ready for the new Tare set to arrive in 2 weeks time or so. I have also been desperately trying to read the books I got for Christmas because I know I will have precious little time to do so soon.

What's bred in the bone will not out of the flesh.
Classes started last week, so most of my time now is spent either at class, or reading and doing homework.

Working, kind of sort of.
Not only getting my own work done, but there's been a lot more cross traffic through here than normal which makes it harder to putter about on teh intrawebz. That and there hasn't been as much to respond to so I have less to post.

Working. Staffing is way down here at work, so I get pulled into more interpretations than I should and as a result, my day-to-day admin work is falling behind. This also leaves me with less time to try to hammer out wedding stuff and take care of home things so my entire life right now is one big stressball of playing catch-up.
That, and the board's been overrun by fucktards.

I work in a tax office. It being tax season, I've been getting out of work close to midnight at times. Only have short moments where I can even check on the forums (like now).
Work, slum posting, complaining about the lack of posts around here to keep me entertained. The usual.
I moved to a farm in Oregon almost three weeks ago, so I've been doing farm stuff. Planting grass, tending to the livestock, splitting firewood, walking around naked a lot more, drinking more, but still not enough, hauling things around via the tractor, humping terrified sheep, and wondering what Nadenu's doing right now. With all that my hands are pretty full! But I still have time to wonder why this place sucks so much, I think it's probably the lack of bewbie pics.

If I lived on a farm in Oregon, you'd bet your *** that I'd have a weed corn-cob-pipe burning all the time and a straw hat with overalls.
So when do your plants mature BT?

I've been trying to get back into a routine with my older son and dealing with what I think is a colicky 6 wk old. Not much sleep here. I found out that caffeine also can build up in a babys system, making them jittery if you have too much so Im down to two cups a day, one in the morning and one in the evening. That combined with no sleep, Im sure you can imagine my wonderful state of mind ;)
that too.

I'm ready but I'm sure the kid is going to stay in there for as long as possible. Nothing is really happening as far as progression.
And yes, I'm quite irritated by that.

Can't blame him/her. If I were inside you I'd never want to leave.
Isn't that romantic?
Also been busy at work. I'm home today though, stomach flu going around or something. And usually when I'm home, been playing a lot of WoW. BC is a lot of fun.

Have you tried pedicures? Spicy food? Bubble baths? Sex? All of the above at once? ;)

I got back on the EQ2 wagon a month or so ago. Got my wizzy up to 59 (66 jeweler) and think that'll be the best I can do before babytime. Soloing stinks!

At the moment, I am sorta revamping my plan for the next year. I was taking classes at the midwifery college I was applying to (supplemental classes, not part of the core curriculum) while I put in my application and just found out a couple weeks ago that my application wasn't accepted. Came as a complete shock to me--with my transcripts being as good as they are, it never seriously entered my mind that I wouldn't get in.
I spoke with the admissions advisor to see if I could get an explanation, and it ends up that while my academic qualifications were some of the best they'd seen, the admissions committee didn't feel I'd been active enough in the natural childbirth/advocacy community to demonstrate my "committment" to becoming a direct-entry midwife, which is pretty understandable, considering I had made the transition from intending to become a nurse-midwife at the 11th hour and until shortly before I applied, hadn't even KNOWN there was a "community" out there in which to be active. But considering how passionately dedicated I am to the non-interventionist childbirth model--to the point where I turned my entire academic and career plan on its ear to change tracks the way I did, all because I knew that as a nurse-midwife I would be quite hampered by the medical establishment from doing the kind of work I wanted to do--and how evangelical I've been not just recently, but for years regarding the benefits of intervention-free childbirth in all my personal dealings, it really stings to have my "dedication to the cause" called into question, just because I hadn't yet acquired a subscription to Midwifery Today.
That particular point of pride aside, my plan for the next year is to beef up my "street cred" in preparation for re-applying next year. I'm not thrilled about the idea of working as a doula, as I don't think I have the personality for it, but there are a couple other routes I can take. In the meantime, I'm also looking for some part-time employment to fill the gap, hopefully something that will allow me the sort of flexibility to be with the baby that I would have had at the midwifery college (there you are allowed to bring infants up to 4 months old to class with you, and after 4 months have them brought to the school by their caretakers for breaks to facilitate breastfeeding.)

If the sex (preferably with ******) doesn't work, you can also try using a breast pump for nipple stimulation to get the oxytocin going.
Or, as a last ditch effort, castor oil. But 1) blech! and 2) if the kid just isn't ready to be born, you might just end up puking and/or having the runs.

With all due respect, fuck the pump (not literally you pervs). Have your man play with those nipples! If you're going to nurse it will be one of the last times your boobs get the loving they deserve and not twisted, tweaked, pulled, wrenched, etc from another little guy looking only for food

Hawt.
Workinmg. had to restore a database first thing in the morning and I have recieved 5 brand new workstations that are to replace some ancient PCs that we have. I'm setting those up right now. gonna do them all at once.. I have no room in my office so I have to set them all up in the large training/conference room and hope that no one is gonna need it for the next day or so. Some of the workstations are being replaced will need to have some department specific programs on them and have some files transferred no doubt. I just now came back to my desk to see if anyting new has come in to my queue; which it hasn't. I am going to go and puff after I and finished getting those new PCs at least cabled up and ready to be set up. I have gotten an official "booty call" from a person that works here and am wondering if I am going to be capable of shunning her off as she lives close by and wants me bad but I feel that it would be a bad idea to propagate such actions with a person with whom I do not feel so emotionally attached to in case it makes it harder on her wehn the day comes that I finally will not be able to satisfy her needs; such as when I get into an actual relationship, although I really do not think that she cares too much about that... so what are ya gonna do? I am so caffeinated that it took me like 2 minites to type this.
