Flustered Day/Pregnancy Meltdown...

Ever have one of those days?

The only thing that I could rely on today was baby's kicks, thankfully. She seemed to have a fantastic day!

I won't get as detailed as I'd like to, but here was my day, blow-by-blow:
2 am: Get up, pee, notice how bright the moonlight is despite closed shutters.
3am: Get up, pee, notice how baby punches every time my stomach growls. Get up, go to kitchen.
4:30am: Head back to bed after a snack and some facebook time.
7:30-11:45am: Get up, breakfast, laundry, swiffer, workout DVD, lunch.
Noon-ish: Get ready for appointment at Human Resources, get overheated from steam shower, try to blowdry hair and do makeup in humid bathroom. Tear apart document safe looking for my birth certificate, to no avail. Brought SSN card instead. Frustration begins.
1pm: Drive in circles looking for parking at Sacred Heart, unable to locate HR building, still sweating from getting ready in hot bathroom. Frustration escalates, I could cry.
1:20pm: Arrive at HR office after walking to three incorrect buildings in sun and heat, flustered and blubbering from the heat and hormones. I was so ticked that I got emotional.
1:30pm: Finally dry the sweat and tears from my face, compose myself enough to have badge photo taken (horrible photo, do I really have a lazy eye?!)
3:30pm: Finish paperwork, drug screen, start hunt for maternity scrub pants.
4:40pm: Head home with two pairs of size small (yeah!) maternity scrub pants...but they're white and tapered (ew!). I'll hem them to above where the taper starts.
6pm: Eat yummy dinner expertly crafted by my loving darling caring husband (he's reading over my shoulder).
8pm: American Idol :)
9:30pm (now): Vent in blog entry while Aaron watches creepy Ghost Hunters show. Wish me luck not having nightmares tonight!

Thanks for enduring my rant. It's the only time this pregnancy (so far) that I've had a public emotional meltdown. Let's cross our fingers that I won't have many/any more!
