I was laying in bed this morning at about 3:40 am thinking how badly I needed to pee. Each morning I take my temperature (basal body temp) to keep a chart of my cycle to help with our monthly pregnancy attempts. This has to be done at exactly the same time every day and even the tiniest little thing can …

It’s sunny in Rotterdam today, for the first time in too damn long. I feel rejuvinated, I feel alive! Xander says I’m like a little rechargable battery, I go out in the sunlight and he can almost hear the hum of my body recharging. How strange huh? We’re going into town shortly, where we will grab some lunch, see Constantine …

I saw the funniest website today, I swear some people have the funniest writing styles! Someone forwarded me to a website called The Sneeze where a guy was talking about drinking his wife’s breastmilk. I found it absolutely hilarious when he said: The only thing weirder than me drinking breast milk, is the fact that milk is coming out of …

Yesterday our speed was cut by our ISP (Chello). When I spoke to them on the 9th the guy I was speaking with told me that if I called back if we were cut off, that it could be reset. I phoned yesterday and got this guy, and I told him what the guy before him said. His response was …

My baby is sick and I don’t know why! Last night Xander and I were watching TV and Bailey threw up near our feet. When we got up to clean it we found 3-4 other piles of vomit. He threw up a few times after that and again during the night in his bed (and on ours, ugh!). I was …

Today I was on the bus sitting in one of those weird sideways seats right across from the driver. The one where you sit only if you walk in and the bus is almost full and you know if you don’t sit right there, you might not get a seat at all. I hate that seat because I never know …

Did you know there is Prozac for cats? Ok not literally but there are drugs for cats with “Anxiety Disorders” just like for humans. How do I know this? I just got back from the vet with my crazy cat. Yesterday we decided enough is enough and took our nocturnal howler to see the doctor. It’s hard for them to …

Another day and another night of lost sleep. All last night Spencer was being a pain in the ass. It all seems so clear to me when I’m laying awake at 3:30am…. just get rid of the cats. Find somewhere for them to go and give them away. When it’s daytime again and they are laying somewhere sleeping and looking …

The timed cat feeder didn’t work, feeding them a little before we went to bed didn’t work.. We’re still being woken up all night by our cats and I honestly have no idea what to do. They are my responsibility, I love them.. but they are making us both crazy. I know I’ll probably just continue to suffer because I …

Oh man am I ever getting sick. Within the last few hours I went from feeling perfectly fine to feeling like my head is going to explode. My throat hurts, my nose is stuffy and I can’t stop sneezing. I’m positively miserable! Xander came home last week and wasn’t feeling well, had a bit of a cold for about two …

Look at those faces.. Don’t they look like the most adorable, sweet, cuddly things you’ve ever seen? Well, don’t be fooled! They are the devil’s tricksters sent to my home to see to it that I never get a full night’s sleep. I love them but for about an hour a day and a few hours each night I hate …
