Real Life: News

[thefourthvine]

So, hi, y'all. I'm pregnant. (Twelve weeks, due at the beginning of June, we don't know the sex yet. Judging from the ultrasound, I would say it is an alien implanted in my uterus by devious means. However, unless we make some major, speedy advances in space travel, it will probably be born on this planet, so I choose to think of it as a future earthling. Crazy optimism, I know.) This could occasion some posting on real-life topics from me, which I know is not what most of you are here for. So, I will be creating a filter. It's opt-in; you don't have to say anything if you don't want on.

Posts to the filter could be frequent. They could be short. They could be unfunny. They could be extremely boring. They could be non-existent. They could be excessively personal or contain mention of bodily fluids. I have no way to tell, because this is new territory for me.

So, keeping that in mind, do you want on the filter? A handy poll is provided for your clicking convenience!

Hi! I am always happy to be added, except when it comes to spambots, and even happier when people introduce themselves. So of course I don't mind at all.

am way, way behind my bedtime and the words 'Benton Fraser has porn' sort of jumped out on from somewhere me all sparkly and brilliant, as they tend to do.

Yes, "Benton Fraser has porn" is one of those phrases that have an inherent brilliance. Just thinking them makes my world a better place.

if it's not to creepy to ask I'd like to read those entries too

It is not at all creepy! I've added you to the filter, so you should be able to see a bunch of entries and photos of the earthling at my LJ now. I do, actually, have the house, the Volvo (really!), and the dog, plus one kid, but I don't think everything that was fun and interesting before has disappeared into the Well of Motherhood. But, hey, you're on the filter, so you can make your own call on that. See what you think!

And I promise you, no one makes you watch Desperate Housewives once you have a kid. I've never seen a single second of it, unless that was the show where Richard Burgi had sex with a couch, in which case I have seen about three minutes of it and it's all brooklinegirl's fault. But if you avoid her, you're good on Desperate Housewives avoidance, too. I swear!
