From the Archives: Pregnant with a Capital P

Please note: this is from 2007. I am not pregnant right now. Although I would love to be.


(2006/7-ish)

I'm currently having a mental crisis. I'm either pregnant, or stark raving mad. Neither option is really that attractive to me, but I'd have to prefer pregnant since that would only last 9 months. I guess the theoretical baby would last much longer, but come on, insanity instead? No thanks.  After all of the months of wondering am I pregnant or am I crazy/have PMS?, I'm positive that there must be a better way. Mother Nature should provide women with a fail safe way of knowing and not having to guess. I guess we have the EPT, but when I was pregnant with Akhila, it took 3 of those suckers and about 2 weeks. 2 weeks is WAY too long to sit and wonder. I think we should have some physical obvious sign that could not be attributed to any other cause. Something like a big blue spot on say our stomachs. Exhaustion, headaches, tender boobs, and puking can all be symptoms of other things. A big blue spot could not. So, I'll have to wait and see if I have a parasite in the oven (kidding!) or if I'm just leaning a bit to the looney side of life.

Movie Review: Knocked Up

Listening to: A TV show about Angels being evil

Mood: Calm

I have been looking forward to watching this movie since it came out. It looked so promising. From what I heard, Seth Rogan is quite the up and coming funny man. This is why it was so disappointing. The story line was not only clichéd, it was way to drawn out and made way too many clichéd points. It also wasn’t that funny. Seth probably will go on to comic greatness, but I was underwhelmed by Kathrine Heigl. I don’t watch the tv show she is in, nor have I seen 27 dresses, so I don’t know if it’s just this movie or her acting in general. I hope not too many people bothered paying to see this in the theater. Hopefully they just wasted a Saturday evening watching it at home.
