Fast food frenzy

I love you too Alex! And yes, mom, I will ask lots of questions!

This morning I woke up and drove straight to McDonalds. Yes, the place I hate, the place I dread, the place my in-laws think is the greatest thing ever, the place I cannot even stand to think about or else I will feel sick. However, I give them props for three things: 1. Orange Hi-C. There is no limit to how much I can drink! 2. smoothies, although, I have not been able to try them yet because everytime I go there for a smoothie their machine is broken, and 3. sausage burritos. For someone who really doesn't like any 'real' food, eggs and sausage and cheese really sound terrible. But, for some reason, I not only tolerate them but at times crave them. So this morning I bought four, thinking I could eat them throughout the day eventually. After church today, we went to Arby's and got junior roast beefs. Another completely nasty not on the list food. However, in the five seconds I saw Arby's and decided I could tolerate it, Dave spun in there so fast, there was no going back! So I ate it in the car on the way home before I changed my mind. This is all in an attempt to gain weight and eat protein and fat. This whole drinking 2 plus quarts of water a day is starting to get to me. I spend more time in the bathroom than anywhere else throughout the day! It's bad enough to have constant pressure on your bladder from baby, but then having a bladder always full! UGH!
I am very worn out and it is only 6:30PM and I have not done much except go to church, eat, and watch movies today. I have yet to pack for our trip and I still have a few chapters to read before I take off, but reading and packing both seem like too much work. I would like to get some fresh air and loosen up my back and go on a walk but I fear having to pee the minute I step out the door. Wow, I'm going to be great fun to my husband in Orlando! :)
My nephew took off for marine basic training today. He plans to visit in November after he graduates, at which time I will be very much bigger. I'm excited for him and to see him after his butt kicking.
As much as I wish Dave would read more baby books (aka pamper pregnant mom books) he does a pretty decent job when he wants too. Today he cleaned the kitchen and living room practically by himself, as I puttered around. I'm happy I have him! Tomorrow is the doctor's appointment! I'm thinking of chugging a gallon of water so we don't have to talk about my inability to gain weight! Oh well, we'll see. If only they made a tasteless pill for that!
