Yikes

Ok, I am r eally really shitty about keeping a journal up to date. I kind of knew this would happen but I stuck my toe in the water anyway.

Just got back from a great visit to Newfoundland. L had a fantastic time. I hope we can get back with J before too many years have passed - he's never been there yet.

Now almost halfway through my pregnancy. Everything is going well so far, except for me having some trouble managing my anxiety issues. I told my doctor about them and he made a note on my chart but didn't have any helpful suggestions or, really, any concern. I'm trying to content myself with the assumption that if he is dismissive, then it means there's nothing truly wrong and he needs me to get out of the way for other women who might need more time for their appointments. It totally isn't because he's way overbooked and probably doesn't give a shit in the first place. Nope, no way.

How's this for a random thought: J and I appear to be the only ones who think that the current series 5 of Doctor Who stinks on hot ice. To quote Zoolander, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Am I the only one who thinks Amy is a completely undeveloped character played by an actress with two settings: pout and widened eyes? Fear, confusion or anger - she widens her eyes. Any other situation - she pouts. She sucks and she drives me crazy. The writing is all over the place - nonsensical and ridiculous and not even internally consistent. But everyone else seems to be falling all over themselves with love and admiration. Is it just because it's Doctor Who? Because we're allowed to not like it, you know.
