(no subject)

I am currently obsessed with the crochet and march2005 communities. Everyone in march2005 is in the same boat I am, fielding a million daily phone calls which are all answered with "Yup, still here. Nope, still pregnant."

I am having a burst of energy this morning - maybe it's my body's way of telling me to finish up some projects (like folding socks) while I still can. Hopefully that's what it is.

I'm really trying to remain Zen about the whole thing (it will happen when it happens, etc etc). But it is difficult. My mother in particular is just wound up to a fever pitch and going to explode soon if it doesn't come soon. She is really really impatient and excited. My dad is generally calmer (and more helpful to maintaining the whole Zen thing).

I did get The. Cutest. Baby Blanket. EVER yesterday from an old roommate, who learned to crochet with me. It's gorgeous and it's also so exciting to have a blanket I didn't make myself.... :) It's very soft and yellow and I need to sit down and look closely at it and figure out how she did it. A co-worker has made me a quilt too, I know, but I don't have that yet. She does beautiful work, so I'm looking forward to seeing what she has made.

And well, I want the baby to get here. I want to meet her.
