So much negativity

Today he came home depressed, tired of working and in need of a break. He said he would like to race on the track to get things off his mind.

I waste my hours away, on silly games and achieving silly results. Truth be told, no one is a failure in this particular world. Everyone has something to be good in, to be lucky at, to be proud of. And perhaps it is the reason I keep coming back to it. In here, no one points out my faults or laughs at my inabilities, and I get random rewards for just being there.

Have been put off whipping up delicious meals for the longest time. The cleaner my kitchen is, the better. The less preparation work I have to put in for a dish, the likelier I will cook that, even if it is almost unpalatable. Think porridge, steamed vegetables and fish, noodles in chicken broth.

All I want to do these days is sleep in until noon, have lunch served to me, play a few rounds of silly games online, rummage the pantry for a teatime snack, take a long hot shower, and be taken out to dinner with no strings attached. Then, more sleep thereafter. Maybe I should come down with a bug for a week, else there seems to be no better reason for such pampering.


Finally, I am not pregnant, which makes this the most welcomed negative ever.

Oh no no no, please

I am on day 38 today. Freakout began on Monday, when bad skin showed up and I somehow had exceptionally wide hips. My weight shot up a kilo over the weekend, and I am so dry. To top it all off, signs of PMS are barely in sight.

No, I don't want another, and well, if it's a girl then I guess I'll feel *slightly* better because the husband will be so glad. And there'll be a wedding dress hanging in the house sometime later on, after all the mother-daughter love-hate yellouts and cold wars. Hmm.

My body can't take a fourth pregnancy, at least I don't believe so. My future can't take another child - I'm 30 and I want my life back, especially when I've only just begun to live it again. This is my opinion. Of course, how blissful and pretty it will all turn out, only God knows.

Hate this waiting. Hate the idea of saving $8 on a test kit, just in case it's a false alarm.
