    Krystie--While it's good to wallow, we sure are glad to have you back! It appears your sense of humor is still intact, so that's a positive sign! OMG, I thought I was the only one that ate muffin mix! (Cake batter, brownie mix, and cookie dough--it's ALL good!

    Sorry to hear AF is being so hard on you this time--maybe she's letting you suffer because she knows it will be her last visit for a long time!


    joey--Good luck with your POAS on Wed.--will you really be able to hold out and wait till then? I'm itching with anticipation! And your symptoms sound really positive!

    You went on a tandem skydive? You must be as nutty as DF! I just don't have it in me to jump from a perfectly good airplane, call me a wimp, that's fine! I can live without the fear--I don't need the rush!

    Not sure what I'll do while the 3 older kids are away--actually I know first thing will be to clean out their rooms! I'm really not looking forward to that--and I have so much laundry to catch up on, it's not even funny. Hopefully some of my younger DS's friends will help me in keeping him busy so I can get some work done. We do want to take Noah for a little trip--just for him--think we'll be going back down to LA to visit my step mom, then maybe back to G-ma's for one last visit. G-ma is amazing, she's 88 and still lives on her own. Her home is in the hills near Hollywood, and is worth over 2 million! Her home is a mansion--and they even have some old slot machines left over from
    G-pa's gangster days! We even found a secret passage the other day when we were there! Anyhow, we may take Noah to Knott's Berry Farm, too, since we've never been.

    Oh, and I plan on buying some Benadryl today to keep in the truck in case of future bee incidences--DF is allergic and has to have shots if he gets stung, so probably better to have some around just in case!


    Easha--Sending lots of anti-AF vibes your way! she stays away and you're surprised with a BFP!!


    plc--Please continue to be a full-time lurker! It's great when you check in on us and keep us updated with how you are! How's it going with the thyroid meds? Hope you're feeling a little more at ease, I know it's scary finding out something new when you have no idea what it all means! Big and take care!


    Angel B--I have a mental image of Pinhead--isn't that his name? Some horror movie that has the guy with all the pins sticking out of his head? Whatever it takes, right? I'm it helps bring you a BFP!


    Sandygirl--Welcome back and good luck for this cycle!


    smilanatu--Yay that AF is gone! :woot: Time to start working on that b-day present!


    AFM... My temp shot through the roof this morning, but slept really sh*tty last night, so maybe that's the culprit. I had a stupid song stuck in my head ALL night long--not even really a song, just the opening for a show called iCarli that the kids watch. I even woke up with it still stuck in my head! I think this is going to be a loooong TWW!

    Jen.... Ok.. we are not on a TWW.... we are just being.... and I m going to go with the most positive of thinking and say... I m 3 weeks....and I will just check on the exact dates next week..... Now It could be the Pin head talkin but hey... I m going to run with it. Accupunturist is convinced this is the month.... did all sorts of bits and pieces to me today that my tummy has not stopped twinging... Soooo I m just going to say.... Yep, 3 weeks..... I may regret taking this approach next week but until then, I m going to run with it..... As for the Pinhead your talking about.... have absolutely no idea... dont watch any horror movies... goodness me... no adult movies, no horror movies....Limits me in Blockbuster.

    You know you're addicted to BB when:

    1. You sign a 2-year contract and pay $60 more per month just to have wireless internet service for a 5 day camping trip!

    2. Your significant other walks in on you checking the position of your cervix, and actually gets turned on from it!

    3. You resort to becoming an adult film industry advocate in order to "keep things alive" during those fertile times!

    4. You read, post, and then refresh to read again in case you missed a post while posting!

    5. You dream of being the first to post in the new thread! :sleep:

    6. You feel like you are wasting urine when you don't pee on a stick!

    7. You see abbreviations in everyday life and try to work out what they mean in the TTC world (eg. DVD must stand for something like "Doing the vjay vjay dance"...)

    8. When you get excited about choosing a new ticker....oh the choices!!!!!

    9. You actually think in emoticons and abbreviations...and occasionally call your husband DH....and he says, "what the hell did you call me????".

    10. And the biggest one of all....DH actually asks if it was a light or dark "BFP" (not positive test) and whether or not you used "FMU" to test!!!! (all in abbreviations...)

    11. When getting a coverline makes you so happy, you feel as though you won the lottery!

    12. When you look forward to going to bed just so you can wake up in the morning and add a new temp!

    13. You say you are taking a break from bb and then spend 24 hours trying to do anything but log on, including cleaning, washing, ironing, shopping, all the while saying to yourself don't do it don't do it don't do it before finally breaking down and getting your bb fix...

    14. You drag yourself out of bed at 6 am every morning even though you're still tired, just to have "quiet alone time" on BB while the kids are still sleeping!

    15. You get the butterflies while logging on to read posts!

    16. You keep your computer on all day long so you know as soon as someone has made a post!

    17. You know you are addicted to BB when you go to put the date on something and you end up writing 9 DPO!

    18. You're whole day is ruined just because you can't log onto BB, and you feel like you're going to go insane without it!

    19. You climb a slide and drive up the tallest hills at your camp spot trying to find a signal so your laptop will work!

    20. You bring your laptop to the drive-in with you so you can check on posts in between shows!

    21. You check your chart at least every half hour, because what if somehow it changed?

    22. You wake up at 2:30 in the morning to use the toilet, and contemplate logging on to see if there's any good news that can't wait until morning!

    23. You wake up at 3 a.m. and have to pee so bad, but you know you'll wake up at 6, so you hold it for three more hours so that you don't ruin your temp!

    24. You toss and turn every morning waiting for it to be time to take your temp!

    25. When DH comments that he's your family, not the girls on BB! (What does he know, anyway? lol...)

    26. You sign on from your mobile phone to let off some steam!

    27. You post 3 times in a row, and twice was just because you ran out of smilies!!!

    28. When you're reading and typing posts in your dreams!

    29. When sitting on the couch watching TV, you position yourself so that you can see the computer screen so you know as soon as a message pops up! Not only that, but you end up watching the computer screen more than the TV!

    30. You run to check posts during an ad break of a show you're watching, then an hour later you realize you missed the end of your show!

    31. When new smilies make you smilie!!

    32. When you stop a movie during the sex scene because it reminds you to check BB!

    33. When you burn your dinner because you're too busy checking your posts! D'oh!

    34. When you begin stalking people's charts and keeping up with their BD stats!

    35. When you've got more than one (3) fertility charts--just to make sure you really know what's going on with your cycle!

    36. When you feel jealous that your kids are on your computer taking up your BB time!!

    37. When class is about to start and you're quickly typing away at the back on the computer, hoping the kids don't see what you are typing!!
