My dear sister<\/a> has optimistically invited me to choreograph some parts of the spring musical.\u00a0 Optimistic because:
A. work is scheduling me for 4 shifts per week, and because we are short-staffed we often work overtime (like yesterday) and
B. my dancing skills have waned a bit since becoming pregnant.\u00a0 Or should I say, all skills that involve movement have waned.\u00a0 Including standing up from couches.\u00a0 My co-worker saw me struggling to get comfortable in my chair during the 7th hour of Monday’s hospital orientation.\u00a0 “When are you due?” he whispered.\u00a0 “End of May,” I replied.\u00a0 He ticked the months off his fingers, “Wow, you have a long way to go!”\u00a0 Yes.\u00a0 Yes I do.\u00a0 Thank you for pointing that out for me. Now help me cross my legs.<\/p>\n

So with her dear students in mind I summoned all my energy to get to the gym this morning.\u00a0 Yes, after a 16 hour day with only a 30 minute lunch break, a fitful night’s sleep while on call, and waking up with a scratchy throat I exercised.\u00a0 Because I only blog when I can brag about my awesomeness. (For example, I haven’t been sick since January 2009.\u00a0 I hope this throat scratch blows over).<\/p>\n

I like going to the gym because I can spend longer exercising and stretching than I do when I stay home.\u00a0 The elliptical is also the only form of aerobics I can do without severe leg pain.\u00a0 I still have bad aches in my gracilis<\/a> every time I take a step.\u00a0 But for some reason running on an elliptical is completely painless.\u00a0 When I got home I stretched a little more.\u00a0 Molly joined in.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

While stretching my quads I looked down at what used to be a flat plane from hip to hip and saw this:<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Oh. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
Oh my.<\/i><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
I’m in ur living room, eclipsing your sun!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Now if you will excuse me, I think it’s almost time for elevenses.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
