Exhausted

I've been crazy busy with work--as can be seen in my relatively infrequent blog updates. Besides working on the book (one more chapter to edit--the worst one, which is also the first one before I do a second final read through), there's been teaching which has taken up a lot more time because of new preps, especially my German Cinema grad class.

I've had some bad Mayle luck recently--make that bad ebay luck. One package went missing (I still have hope but it's three weeks now). Another order didn't fit me at all, teaching me that size 6s from older seasons don't work on me as a general rule. But I did get the Makino top in dove from Fall 08 which is really great (and it fits me even though it's a 6).

Acupuncture is helping me to lose weight--not a goal, but not unwelcome, as I already mentioned. As for getting pregnant, that hasn't happened. I thought I was over feeling bad about this, but I think that's wishful thinking. As I write this, I'm mourning that nothing seems to work. It's been only 7 sessions (8th today) so I realize this is premature but I want to move on with my life and this is holding me back. I am impatient to meet my child, I want him or her to have as long as possible with their grandparents, so I am pleading and praying let this happen soon.
