I now feel like a real pregnant lady. After waiting weeks and weeks for it, today a stranger commented on my condition! In fact, two separate strangers in a row said something. I met my friend, Elaine, for lunch, and the waitress asked if we wanted garlic on our pizza. I said no, and she said, “I guess the baby doesn’t like garlic, huh?” I was so happy! Then, after that I went to the post office and the male post office clerk asked me how many months along I was. Finally I can feel like people can tell I’m pregnant and not just chubby! Maybe I had a growth spurt last night or something. To commemorate the day, I took a picture of myself and posted it below.

In other news this week, I got a new cell phone! Getting a new phone is always exciting for me, but I am especially happy this time around because my old one was crappy and would crash periodically. I got a pink Razr, and I love it so far. I wasn’t due for an upgrade until September 16, but I checked in at the Cingular store and they said they could do it early because I am a VIP. I don’t know how I earned that status, but at least my celebrity is recognized somewhere
