Sucking

Posted Oct 22 2008 4:51pm

Cycle 20 - Cycle Day 23 - 9 Days Past Ovulation

Sucking. That seems to be the theme of my life recently. I tried to update about 3 times last week, bet either my internet connection or Blogger was sucking each time I tried.

I feel like crap. I have this awful cold that sucked so bad I couldn't get out of bed all day yesterday. I'm like a big ball of snot. Hot, right? I didn't think so, but the husband for some reason wants sex now. So, he's sucking as well.

The hellion, who is supposed to be a dainty, six year old first grader, decided to punch a classmate in the eye because she wouldn't listen to her. So, massive phone conferences ensued, from both the vice principal and her teacher, who I think may be mildly retarded. Now, I very much support teachers. They have a very difficult job and I respect the work they do. It's just this specific teacher. Speaking with her hurts my head. So, the school system is sucking.

And while the school system was sucking, they somehow directed the hellion's father's attention towards me. He's always sucking. I had to endure a way too long conversation that consisted of me having to calm him down and explain that we are not going to sue the school system nor send the hellion to private school. Finally calm, he gets off the phone, talks to the hellion, and then calls back frantic. She lied to him! Well, color me shocked. She's six and doesn't want to get in trouble. I would have lied to him too.

And finally, I sit here, utterly confused. As I mentioned, I'm sick. Some ghastly headcold. Now, this may not seem like a major deal to most sane people. But I don't get sick like this. Ever. Unless I'm pregnant. So now I sit here, trying to figure out the earliest I can take a test and have a somewhat reliable answer. I debated taking one today but since I'm only 9 days past ovulation and it can take up to 10 for the embryo to even implant, I figure it's a waste of a test. So I wait. While not taking any cold medication because they all warn again those who are pregnant or may become pregnant. So, HPT's are sucking cause they are no use to me at the moment and Cold Medicine is sucking because it's apparently so damn toxic I have to sit here and hope I manage to keep my lungs firmly in my chest where they belong and not hack them out all over my keyboard.

So, yeah, sucking is a major theme.
