Unfit for Public

I'm taking the day off today. I've noticed that I've become slightly more aggressive and cantankerous during pregnancy - especially in my car. I am not in the habit of disobeying the police but I did just that yesterday when confronted with a traffic cop who was ignoring me and the cars behind me for quite some time. My logic at the time was, "This place is a mad house, she's not going to write me a ticket or anything." My disobedience resulted in her pounding on the exterior of my car and my feigned apology. I was in a hurry and late for birthing class. I mean, come on! Anyway, I need to chill before I get beaten up or put in jail. After being woken up around 2AM this morning by The Husband, I was unable to get back to sleep (mostly because I started yelling at him) and it was then that I decided I am still a public danger today and should remain on my property.

Our last birth class was last night. It was a pot luck and I brought skewered chicken marinated in some thai sort of sauce along with peanut and coconut milk dipping sauce. It was really tasty. The chicken was of course cold since our ten minute ride turned into forty minute hell due to the aforementioned traffic. Now The Husband and I have classes at the hospital itself to learn about their policies and to get a tour.

I plan to spend the day doing yard work and laundry - all of the stuff I was supposed to do yesterday but The Husband put in the EXTENDED version of Ray which took us about six hours to watch because we broke in the middle to make shrimp creole. Nearly every bar scene was a bar that we have frequented her in New Orleans. It's good to know that our city is so run down and antiquated that a bar can pass for 1940's Chicago without much dressing.

It's sad to admit, but I haven't seen Ray yet. It's on the list of movies to watch though!
