I believe the first day in the baby pool is October 21, which is 2 weeks from tomorrow.
Gentlemen, we are in the red zone.
As I approach the end of pregnancy, I am beginning to understand why people say it sucks. Cause it really does. You can breath, sleep or eat cause there is baby in the way. You can't put on shoes or get out of bed easily cause there is baby in the way. You can't walk because the muscles that used to hold your legs together are drunk or high or otherwise not doing their job. You can't even think most of the time because the baby, like an alien, moves inside of you and you look down to see your belly shaped like an egg with knees, elbows or feet poking out of it... and everytime he moves, your stomach spazes to practice pushing him out. It's totally awesome and totally GAY!
So, since I am pretty much useless for anything else, I've been excited about watching college football this season. I was really pissed that I missed the game last weekend -- and also quite devastated that State had to ruin a perfectly good season. I'm still pulling for Big 10 champs and a possible Rose Bowl. (Which I think we should all go to this year if Michigan makes it). We'll see what happens with Iowa this week... keeping my fingers crossed.
Ulrich is waiting to hear back on a couple of jobs. He has an opportunity in San Diego with a place called Illumina which is a company that makes devices to study DNA. He also has a great opportunity in the Bay area with a National Laboratory doing research on sensors for bio-terrorism. Either job would be pretty sweet. They said they would get back to us in the next 2 weeks or so. He has additional interviews with other companies this week, so we might soon learn where our next chapter of life will be.
