I’ve felt progressively worse as today’s passed. My head was stuffy in the morning and I was constantly coughing and blowing my nose, but now I’m certain my right ear is infected, I can’t stop sneezing and either one of my nostrils is clogged or watery boogers are rolling out. I thought I was passed that stage already, the watery boggers. I had the gross, phlemy ones in the morning and–oh my God, that must mean I’m reverting! I’m going backwards and I’m going to start this cold all over again :(.

The poor kids have been keeping themselves busy all day. We haven’t left the house at all. They’ve been good boys for the most part, except for that one time in the afternoon when I finally gave in to the fatigue and fell asleep on the couch (mom and John were here to watch them). I could hear the boys screaming their heads off about something and of course Mother didn’t tell them anything (sometimes I wonder why I ask her to watch them) so I had to tell them to quiet down. It happened a few times so I gave up on sleeping.

The only reason I’m even typing right now is because my back is throbbing in pain from laying down too long. Sitting too long hurts my legs. It’s so weird. The pain I get feels like I’ve done 1,000 lunges or something.

How I managed to make dinner is beyond me. I’m terrified of spreading this cold, especially to the boys since they’re FINALLY not sick of something *knocks on wood*. My hands are dry and rough from washing my hands all day. I was afraid of getting one of those surprise sneezes while I was cooking (I made nachos with “the works”) so I stuffed a tissue in each nostril and covered my face up to my nose with my t-shirt. At least I got to eat in peace. I’m probably going to have to go to the doctor, though, as much as I loathe it. I hope this stupid ear infection lets me sleep. Well, as much as a 9 month pregnant woman can sleep.

OH! I received the keyboard I ordered on Ebay for my phone (SPH i500). It was the wrong damn one. It’s only compatible with the newer models (mine’s a little old man already), yet the ones that are for my phone look exactly like the one I ordered. Now I’m stuck with this darn keyboard (and it’s so friggin’ cute, too!). Mario told me to order the right one and not to “worry” about the other, which probably means he’ll sell it to someone but I don’t know of anyone who has one of these phones! I’d feel totally guilty spending another $17-25 on another darn keyboard. I’m putting it up for sale. Hopefully someone will buy it =\.

Okay, going to add some more old 2005 entries. I might set up camp on the couch like I did this afternoon (yay for my wireless mouse, keyboard and PC to TV converter–I’d still rather have a laptop though LOL).

Just checking if it works before I make the mistake of buying the keyboard for it.

I just spent about 15 minutes typing writing up an entry on my PDA and when I pressed “publish” the piece of crap got a 410 error, which is like a 404 Not Found. Argh!! I was testing it, since I probably won’t have a laptop by the time I’m ready to have Alaethia and I’d love to have updates while I’m in the hospital, but it sucks with WordPress. It worked perfectly with Greymatter. You’re letting me down WP :(.

I seriously thought I was going to be updating from the hospital yesterday. A while after I posted my last entry I started feeling really crappy. My stomach was cramping; I had no idea whether it was contractions or an upset stomach. I went searching on Google for ‘signs of labor’ and I checked off every single symptom except for my water breaking. I was freaking out, especially since I’m only 33 1/2 weeks along! It ended up being some kind of half-day stomach bug, though, which made me feel miserable anyway but I was thankful that it wasn’t labor.

Since I felt sick, I didn’t get to wrap many presents but I at least got the kids’ gift-exchange ones done and packed to take with us today. I ended up eating strawberry oatmeal for dinner at around 10:30pm since that’s when my stomach settled a little and I stopped feeling nauseous. Mario and I cuddled and I had a better night’s sleep than I though I would, thank goodness.

I woke up feeling pretty good, and so far, I’m fine. I’ve been spending my free time uploading old pictures (’03-’04ish) to my Flickr account. So far, I’ve got Jaylen’s Baptism, Janaury 2004 (still adding to that one though), Christmas 2004 (which has 150-some pictures!), and I’m slowly adding to my 80s Set. Makes me miss my collections terribly *wipes tear*.

So, I’ll leave you with those. Enjoy! But be warned, again, my camera at the time (Samsung Digimax 101) was crappy and really blurry :(.
