    Lorrie Moore: A Gate at the Stairs
    I liked this, but it didn't set my hair on fire or anything. Sometimes I think her writing is a little bit overly quirky, and to me it creates unnecessary distance between the reader and the characters. Plot-wise, the story seemed to end at one point, but then it kept going and there was this rather gratuitous (yet also kind of predictable) further ending that I could have done without. On the whole, worth reading but I didn't go as nuts over it as the reviews suggested I would.

No good! Although, way to turn a case of misery into good blog fodder! Feel better soon.

Oh, my. The round ligament pain. I remember it well. Poor you! I hope you feel better soon!!

I don't know how, but the body pillow cured all of that 2nd & 3rd trimester misery for me. Of course, after having the baby I was stuck trying to find a place to store what basically looks like a giant white worm, but still. Hope it works. Stupid whore round ligament pain. Bah!

Oh, man. Day at the office DOES sound more restful. Also, I get really frustrated by the night-pain followed by the morning-doubt-of-night-pain. Makes me feel, well, CahRAzy.

Hope you can find a more comfortable way to sleep out the rest of pregnancy!

Yep, every since getting our awesome pooch, sick days have been far less restful. *sigh* Lu just can't understand why I want to lay on the couch when there's stuff to look at outside! And dogs to play with! And rabbits to chase! All the while, I'm moaning and begging him to just lay down. How do I convey that at 8 weeks pregnant I need a moment or two to stop the world from spinning in dog language?!
