A friend of ours graduated college and he had a huge party last night.
There was lots of alcohol, but there were also a few people who weren't drinking. Me, Brian, and another pregnant lady there. Hahah.. Anyway, despite being the only sober ones, it was a really great party.
There were so many people to talk to. Except... they are all tall. Like 6ft at least. I am 5ft4. So by the end of the night, my neck was killing me! I had it craned all night just so I could make eye contact with people. My feet also hurt, particularly my left ankle. I didn't sit down at all, mainly because there was seating, but if I sat down I would have been out of the party, sitting in a corner... by myself.
Luckily though, I have no plans today other than playing Animal Crossing: City Folk for the Wii and keeping my leg elevated with lots of ice.
Despite not imbibing any alcohol, I still got sick! These darned prenatal pills are killing me. If I take them with food (rare, since I'm hardly hungry) I get nauseous. If I take them without food, well I make a new porcelain friend. I'm just going to up my protein intake, and focus on eating more chicken and tuna to get my recommended iron intake.
I couldn't sleep at all last night, between my neck pain and ankle pain. I had to take Tylenol and put ice on both neck and foot to even get comfortable. I think I finally fell asleep at 6 am.
I'm glad we left when we did though (about 12:30 am) because I guess the cops got called out due to noise? So thankful I was home by then. I don't want to have to deal with that.
And yes, Brian's stalker bitch? She was there. But that's okay. She mainly kept her distance, only annoying me periodically about my cravings. "No weird cravings yet? Are you sure you're pregnant?" I smiled and said, "No cravings. Easiest pregnancy ever!" I got asked three or four times, like she couldn't believe that I was not craving sweets or anything. But what she doesn't know is I crave salt! Probably why I stood at the bowl of Chex Mix all night chowing down on it! Our secret, internet... our secret.
I'm glad we went out, but damn... so glad that doesn't happen every weekend! I don't think I can handle it :)
Try taking your prenatal vitamin right before you go to bed, that was the only way I could take mine. My doctor told me that to do it that way. I still take my multi-vitamin at that time.
ReplyDeleteSee if you guys can catch Super 8 Sometime! As children of the 80's, it was the best time my sailor and I had at the movies in a LONG time. Fun, cliche monster movie w/o any of the crazy gore you expect now.
