My work buddy/neighbor who is due a week or so before me got in trouble for
stopping by my desk and chatting. This happened a grand total of three
times for a max of 15 minutes. And the person who made the complaint was my
boss's boss who stops by my cubicle neighbor's desk every day for about 45
minutes and talks about sports and workouts and playing video games. Double
standard much? Apparently, they were uncomfortable with us talking about
"lady stuff". Well, I'd rather not hear about you blowing someone's head
off and seeing the "red rain" in your violent video game, but I just put my
headphones on and ignore the chatter. And it's not like we were standing
there talking about our vaginas. We were discussing glucose testing and
cloth diapers.
In other news, my husband and I went on a bike ride down to the nearby boat
ramp yesterday evening and I kept feeling a little crampy and stopped
peddling a few times to stretch the muscles in my lower belly. Apparently,
the activity had set off my very first noticeable Braxton Hicks contractions
and I didn't really realize it. My back has been killing me for the past
two days in the late afternoons (located higher in the back than my usual
hip pain) and I wonder now if the two things were at all connected. I'll
have to pay attention to that.
