If you're making fun of me to each other, at least do me the courtesy of not telling me that you are doing so. Especially when you're making fun of me over the ability or inability to conceive children. It's no secret that I am childfree by choice, but it's also no secret that I am conflicted as hell over it, either. Shame on you for using my personal pain as a personal boost to your egos or what-the-fuck-ever.

May you all experience the pain of having your secrets stab you in the back.

It supposedly makes you stronger.

The Great Gender Neutral Baby Book
Originally uploaded by sexyphlegm.

It's finally done.

Only took me 7 months...

Okay, so I worked on it in January, once in March and mostly in June and July... so it didn't really take that long.

But I did average 3 hours per page. I think that's because I didn't have the energy to research layout ideas and wanted to create it on my own without copying someone else's ideas.

Stuff that's happened, in no particular order, in handy dandy list format:

1) I am officially 25 years old now.
2) We moved to the bigger apartment with the awesome view.
3) We have painted walls.
4) I finally saw Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest.
5) After much delay, we have DSL again. Life is just not the same without broadband.
6) We finished watching the first season of Lost--hooray for Netflix.
7) As promised, we cancelled our premium channels--boo for HBO and Comcast (and by association of cancelling premium channels, Showtime, although they have done nothing to really anger me, other than the third season of Penn & Teller: Bullshit! kind of sucking).
8) After having been deprived of DSL, I rediscovered my Charmed addiction. Feel free to shun me. (It's addictive!)
9) We had friends for a week. Then they flew away. We lose more friends that way.
10) Oh and Amazon is both awesome and cruel. Just selling the books we didn't want anymore (I listed 25 books, mostly paperbacks, only one textbook) has garnered $139.75. However the first deposit we only made $51.88 because Amazon took $31.31. This next deposit pending for the end of the month (currently) is $44.23 minus, of course, Amazon's cut of $12.33. So we have made $96.11 -- not including shipping fees.

Two things: 1) I have an awesome wedding gift idea for you guys. So hopefully we'll be online at the same time real soon. 2) I am seriously considering ditching the whole website endeavor thingie. Any thoughts?

Ditching the website endeavor thingy? So no more web design? You're still gonna have a blog though... right?

Actually no. I was thinking of ceasing the blog as well.

Awww, no blog too? Well, I know I'll be sad I can't just go to the web and find out what's going on in your life, but it's not like I can make you post stuff :)

Lost the will to blog?
