Bah Baby Bug.

I have been thinking a lot about babies and pregnancy lately - and no not because I am. But I just happen to know 7 couples/people pregnant right now - one due yesterday (bless her heart) and the others from now through March. Much like 2003 where we had 7 weddings including our own to attend, it makes you think about baby names, baby showers, baby gifts, and many other things you had no idea happened when you are pregnant.

One thing I have learned for certain is that you can use the "Sorry I'm Pregnant" excuse for just about anything. And believe me...I am taking notes. I have seen this shenanigan work more than a few hundred times in the past few months. Sorry...I can't lift that, I'm Pregnant. Sorry I am in the bitchy mood, I'm Pregnant. Sorry...I can't remember much, I'm Pregnant. Sorry I just tripped you going down the hall, I'm Pregnant.

Maybe I am just jealous that I cannot walk up to co-workers right now and slap them across the head and say, "ooops! Sorry, I'm Pregnant." In all honesty, I have even encouraged one of my very best friends to use this excuse - and since she was due yesterday with no word from Baby Smith - I will continue to encourage her. I just wish that I could be around her more to take advantage of the "Sorry....I was with Kristina and she is pregnant."

As I said before, I am taking notes, ladies. But until then, my excuse remains, "Sorry...I just don't feel like it!" :-)
