And Baby Makes 9

Four weeks early but the baby is here! 
One in the morning on a Saturday I was disturbed from my deep slumber to the pounding on my bedroom door. I tired to ignore the frequent pounding in favor of my sleep. However, the knocking persisted. I was then awoken by my husband telling me his sister had been taken by the hospital and he would return. Of course now I could no longer sleep. So I did what anyone would do while waiting for news, I did the dishes my family members had so lovingly left me the night before. 
Around two my husband returned from his hospital visit, and added he was going back to bed. His sister had been admitted and being her coach, I decided to get dressed and head down there. Good thing I had because four long and nasty hours she had her baby. 
Shocked! That is what I was, this was her first baby! She only pushed for TEN MINUTES!!!! She had no epidural, there was no time. When it was all said and done, I was relived I had missed the gory details by focusing on the empty crib. Alas my relief had been short lived when I happened to have looked over and seen the placenta emerging out of my sister in law! Not something I recommend seeing! 
I still have not recovered my lack of sleep. She however has! She is the most unorganized and not so prepared person I have ever met and she is doing better then I am! And she just had a baby!!! 
So now I am dealing with the glow of the annoying "adult" parents who think they are living on cloud nine. None of them have to pay for this whole ordeal because the mother is covered under her father's insurance. I am saddened she had such a simple birth only because it makes me afraid she is going to think she can do this again!
I am also afraid she has made an even bigger mistake by not breaking up with her less then average boyfriend. I can only hope and pray she will come to her senses soon!!! 
I mean how do you let someone come back into your life who didn't show up for almost two weeks after cussing you out, and practically panicked like a little girl while you are giving birth to his baby! I can't stomach a lot of things and nor have I ever had a vaginal birth (C-section for life baby!!) but I was the one who took her to her Lamaze classes! I was the one who pushed for her prenatal care, and question the size of her stomach when I thought she looked to small, and so did her doctor. I was the one who washed all of her baby clothing and bottles because she was early and no one else was going to help. I was the one who took care of her for the last two months and yet I am not rewarded with the removal of her loser and alleged abusive boyfriend! I only ask for one thing and that is only because I am concerned about her future. I am not a busy body by all means, nor do I want to be apart of this stressful situation. Having said that I must let it be known this situation is like watching a child burn themselves. You just can't sit back and watch it happen!! 
To end this bittersweet post, and I say bittersweet because this is not a happy moment. This is the beginning of a nasty rocky road (teen mom). One that we will all be left picking up the pieces when this explodes and the only one who will suffer the most will be the sweet baby! 
The baby is fine, we are waiting to brink her home. Hopefully in a couple of days she will be brought here and we won't have to wait until she is 39 weeks! 
Until next time, WEAR CONDOMS!!!

Eye of the Tiger Baby!!!





Before I begin I need to give a little update. I returned to the Law Library for more research and I handled that place like a boss! I walked in with a "I will conquer" attitude and boy did I conquer! Of course it helps that I was listening to the "Rocky" theme song! Ha! As I said in last week"s post I know how to use a library and why this was hard I have no idea. The one thing I did that made the whole process much easier was just think of the indexes as a card catalog. Once I did that things just fell into place. Now, I am more confident my job as a Paralegal will be more successful.  As Katy Perry recently said in her new song...."I got the eye of the tiger, the fire, dancing through the fire cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me ROAR."


Now that I have my new theme song in place I feel as though I can conquer whatever plan I have in my mind. Sadly at my age this is harder and to harder to feel. Why is it that songs and encouragement only apply to the young? Then there is that grey period that I don't understand, I found myself on the outs of everything. If only Sex and the City were still on then I wouldn't feel as though nothing relates to me. For crying out loud the movies and books that are popular right now are teeny books!
How this turned into a rant from my awesome week I have no idea!

This week is also the last week of summer. Gearing up for the new school year has been one heck of a project. I have had an issue already with the school district. My child has been transferred three times, and the year hasn't even started yet. To make things so much better the district was placing him in a grade he had already completed. Why I have no idea, my only guess is they are just silly! (That was the nicest word I could up).
So, with me being the efficient busy body that I am I managed to get them to place him in a school and have transportation ready to go! Yay me! 

Though out this I have come to be proud of myself and this is how-I manged to get my relative to finally step up to his duties. It took a lot of pushing and demanding but I finally got his attention. So now he is going to be spending more time with our other relative who is pregnant and he is going to be taking her to her doctor appointments. I know you don't want to face certain situations as they are happening. Especially when they are uncomfortable or horrible or both, but you have to face them. This is something I am all too familiar with and I am hoping that soon my light at the end of the tunnel comes. 
So with that I have to say this is the first time in a long time I actually feel good about myself. I feel almost back to my old self. Working out might have done some work to my mental state. Working on my writing and working on my future has helped out a ton. The writer's block moment was annoying but I feel it is finally lifting. 
And of course I have been playing video games...like you didn't see that coming. I have also been gearing up to watch my favorite duo, Nick Frost and Simon Pegg in The World's End. And..wait for it....
the best part of this week I have......booked my trip for San Diego for....wait for it.....I am going to Comic Con 2014!!! Oh so excited!!! Now begs the question..To dress up or not? 
Until next time my friends..stay nerdy!

The Law Library!!



Holy books Batman!!
I have never, ever, met a library I couldn't man handle! I love walking in to a library and just get familiar. I show up and just walk around while running my fingers along the shelves as though I'm seducing a lover. I whisper hello, in my head, to the books.I like everything about the library, from the smell to the crazy looking librarians and the strange people who enter.
I love sitting there just reading, and maybe writing a little.
However, today I have met a rough library. The law library! I have never been so over whelmed and frustrated in all my life. I know that today was just my first day so I shouldn't fret. That doesn't make me feel any better. I mean I should know how to read a damn book! When you look up something for a specific statue you have to start with an index, and from there the index leads you to the book you will  be able to find it in. I can not get passed the index! I wonder if it is because I don't really have an example for looking up but you would think it would be something you could easily figure out. I don't feel that way now!
I feel as though I need someone to hold my hand just to find the damn index. I also think the indexes are a waste of time, though I need to use them. I need to understand them and I must do so in a way that I will be good at what I do!
So tomorrow, I'll let you know how that goes. For now I just wanna cry! :)

Whovians clear your calenders!!!

Clara (Jenna Coleman) and the current Doctor (Matt Smith) in season 33 of the popular show.


So the we will not be waiting till December to see who the new Doctor will be? 
That is right the new Doctor will be revealed on BBC American and the Real BBC this Sunday!!
I. am. not. ready!
Yet, at the same time I am really excited. Conflicted much? 
As I have stated before I am really sad that Matt Smith has decided he is done with the series but then again all things must come to an end. (insert sad face here) I have grown to love him as much as I loved David Tennant.(Doctor #10), though at first it wasn't easy. David is still my favorite out of all the Doctors, my son loves Doctor #3 and #10. He is so very excited that November is almost here and he is excited there will be a new Doctor. So the lesson I am taking from him is to just be excited the damn show is on!
So until then I'll have the popcorn ready to pop and the tissues ready to go. 
The tear damn will really break in December when Matt Smith finally bids adieu!
Until then Stay Nerdy!

So sad, but working on it.

So I am sad to say I have a nasty case of the writer's block. I have no idea what to write or how to write it. I am very sad and frustrated at the moment. I am working on some things in my writer's journal that I am hoping to help me. I am surfing the net to get inspiration. I. AM. EVEN. WATCHING. THE. NEWS!! Crazy, I know considering I hate watching the news all it does is freak me out or make me mad.
So now I finish this horrible post.
I swear tomorrow I will have something...I will squeeze blood from a turnip! I will!
Until then, stay nerdy and remember only three months till Doctor Who comes back!
