I love my wife!
awwww, I LOVE that C posted on here!!!! She's so nice, even if a little bossy at times. :)
The whole non-bio mom thing is a big issue we both worry about. We both know that she and I are both the "real mom," but not everyone in the world will necessarily understand that, right away anyway.
BTW, I still haven't gotten season 8 of the simpsons yet . . .
Last night I closed at Sbux, and it was actually a really fun shift (I worked with cool people) but I got home late and couldn't fall asleep for a while since I was wired from work. Then we had to get up early to get to my HSG appointment which SUCKED. The appointment was at 9 and they called me in right away. I had C wait in the waiting room because I knew it was a 10-minute procedure and I thought I'd be in and out right away. Right? WRONG!!!! I didn't actually get in the procedure room until 10:30 and I was having an almost-panic attack because it was taking so long and no one was telling me how long it was going to be and I was worried about C waiting for me wondering what the hell was taking so long . . .
Then, the procedure itself hurt SO BAD. Way worse than I expected. It really was only a few minutes, but it was TERRIBLE, I started shaking and crying. I couldn't breathe. And since I was all panicked about having waited so long, that made it even worse.
Warning if you're squeamish, don't read!!!! The doctor used a speculum then inserted dye into my uterus to make sure all the fallopian tubes were open and not blocked. He didn't tell me what he was doing exactly, which I hate, and it was just horribly painful. I know it's a good test because if something WAS blocked, I wouldn't be able to get pregnant without it being taken care of. It was terrible, terrible, terrible, a horrible thing to do first thing in the morning.
But anyway, I'm fine now, and I made C take me out for a nice breakfast afterward. Then I went to Queens College to teach my first day of French Lit, which was fine.
I'm really glad I don't have to work tonight at sbux, I'd have to call in. I really need to take it easy tonight, go to bed early. Especially since tomorrow morning C and I are going to get to the RE's office by 7:30 so we can start figuring out what the best days for insemination are.
HSG = horrible sucky gross
