pros and cons
it sucks that justin is working weekends now. it sucks to prick myself four+ times a day. my fingertips are purple and bruised. it sucks to have the elephantastic ankles suddenly kick in today.
but it's nice to come home to justin, already waiting for me, on a weeknight. it's nice to walk together on a perfectly temperate afternoon to our neighborhood brewery for dinner, and to sit outside and eat mushrooms and put my feet up and catch up with a friend leaving for a month of work in nagoya and hong kong tomorrow. and then around the corner, sitting outside the belgian beer bar, putting my feet up, another friend joining us, telling bawdy jokes and making fun of steve perry and of cheap trick and of the strokes, and dipping my finger in justin's rohrbach and making a mental note that after milo's born i'd like to actually have one in a glass - perfectly divine.
milo kicked like hell today (according to justin, in honor of the opening round of the world cup), and i'm keeping my blood sugar within safe range. the world keeps on spinning. 68 more sleeps.

only 68 more sleeps, how time is flying. Yes, I agree it sucks you have to watch your blood sugar and do tests all the time. I;m sorry about that. I am pre-diabetic so I have had to do that too a few times in my life. and I know how the diet thing can suck bigtime. you have my sympathy. & Lovely to hear Justin and Milo are excited about the imminent world cup. At our house, the excitement is building also. B and I fell in love watch a world cup together. I holds such huge memories and emotions for me.
