Faculty meetings and morning sickness

So I am currently embarking on a few new adventures in life. Pregnancy seems to be joyous and nauseating at the same time. Where I am thrilled to be pregnant, I'm still waiting for that "glow" to kick in. Oh course being a nurse equipped with just enough knowledge to lead to trouble, I have been blessed just enough problems to make life miserable. Although I'm trying to keep a cheerful attitude, I'm sick of seeing the inside of the toilet. The same warm affection I feel towards supermodels is the feelings I have towards those cheerful energetic mothers with no morning sickness.

Okay, that's enough complaining for the moment. But seriously, if I never see ginger ale again, it will be too soon.

One good point about pregnancy. I work with about a million women at the university who are mothers or grandmothers. Therefore pregnancy has become the perfect excuse to sneak out of meetings. (I must say faculty...about as exciting as the dentist's office.) So long live the peanut and all the nausea she/he brings. I'll take it if it gets me out of the "what color the floor should be" discussion.
