six months in and so far pregnancy isn't as bad as i suspected. there are some good days and some bad, but all in all, i just feel lucky. that being said, it's hard to feel pretty when you are six months pregnant. i didn't want to spend a ton of money on clothes because they have such a limited shelf life. but the cheap clothes, look, well, cheap. and the majority of my shoes are not conducive to all of the weight i am suddenly carrying so most of them are collecting dust until next year. after some tears a few weeks ago (blame the hormones!), seth finally convinced me that i needed to go shopping and buy some nice dresses for work. i am wearing one of those purchases today. and i feel pretty! everyone at work has been quite complimentary and i am very excited. and then this exchange occurred:
unnamed co-worker: "wow, that dress makes it look you aren't pregnant from the front"
me: "why, thank you, that's a huge compliment!"
unnamed co-worker: "thats a great optical illusion"
cue the sad music. gotta love an honest male.
