5/23/07 - May Gray

It's cooled down now to the typically overcast weather of spring. I found it a little disappointing because I had finally splurged on a fancy pedicure in preparation for the Alzheimer's Association Fundraiser Gala, and now it's too cold to wear sandals. We had a wonderful time at the Gala, though I certainly paid for it afterwards. I made the mistake of deciding to wear my fancy heels from last year instead of shelling out more cash for a nice pair of flats I'd never wear again. Within 15 minutes, my feet we killing me, followed by my hips, then my lower back. I finally got relief by visiting the chiropractor two days later. I'll never do that again! I was pretty pleased with the formal maternity dress I found, though it must have made me look pretty big. While I was waiting in line in the restroom, the lady next to me said “you look just about ready to pop!” When I told her I still had a couple more months, she looked surprised and asked, “are you having twins?” No, but thanks for asking. Geez. Way to make a preggo’s day!
