Un-Stylin'

You want to know one of my favorite parts of being pregnant? I mean other than the obvious perks of not having a period for months and having an excuse to eat whatever you want whenever you want and no one can say a word to you about it....Expectant Mother Parking. It's fabulous. The front spots at the PX, commissary, hospital, gas station...you name it, there is Expectant Mother Parking. The only bad thing is when you go to the store and you realize that not only is your spot taken, but it's been taken by a 30 year-old single man in an Eclipse. Word of advice - don't piss off a pregnant lady by taking her parking spot, it won't end pretty for you.

Anyhoo...that's my favorite part. My least favorite part of pregnancy - the clothes. The clothes suck. Why do maternity clothes have to be so ugly?? Just because you feel like a fat cow with a penguin waddle does not mean that you want to look like a fat cow with a penguin waddle. Of course, you can get cute maternity clothes sometimes, if you want to pay $90 for a t-shirt. Seriously, you're gonna wear it for a few months at best, why would you pay that much for a shirt?

Sigh...I really want to get new clothes this time around. I mean, my maternity clothes have lasted me through the last 2 pregnancies, and quite frankly, I'm tired of looking at them. But since I'm cheap (and now I'm going to have three kids to care for), I don't want to spend a lot.

I guess I'll have to just keep scouring the sales racks. You know...with all my free time.
