Don't worry, gang.  Now I'm in an "up."  If all goes well (that is, if James's overtime in the law office is kept to a minimum this SATURDAY MORNING) we're going to visit the in-laws later today.  That means a car trip to upstate New York and then lots of overeating when we get there.  I don't usually look so foward to this kind of thing, but I've been dying to get out of the house!  The beautiful car-trip dance of drinking a 72-oz. Big Gulp, then needing to pee, then getting another 72-oz. Big Gulp, then needing to pee... oh, it's so much different than what I've been going through here.  Except for the 64 ounces of water that I threw up on the doctor's floor.  But whatever.  I'm talking DIET COKE here, the elixr of life. And if I had to throw up, chances are I could throw up out of the car window, just like James did after that very hard-drinking wedding that we went to a couple of months ago.  He graced Saginaw with his bile.  But we're not really supposed to talk about that.  It wasn't his finest moment.  But it was a rental car.So here I am, not pregnant, thinking that I could have a margarita every night, load up on caffeine, and eat a lot of crap every minute of the day.  That's because I don't have any organisms in my body to destroy.But, um, babies or no babies, I might have a few organisms that belong to me that I should think about treating better.  Maybe I should treat my body like a baby sanctuary all the time, for its own sake.I'll think about it.  While I'm drinking the Big Gulps.

Yay, caffeine! Always good to be able to recognize the up side, as trivial as it might be. I hope you have a great trip.
