Almost at the finish line...

I have a cold now. Which is super awesome when you're pregnant. You get the added bonus of peeing yourself a little bit every time you sneeze.

For as much as I bitch about being pregnant, though, I have to admit there are things I am going to miss about it. One of them is feeling the baby move inside me. This sounds loopy, but it makes me a little sad to know I will never be this close to my baby again.

I'm 39 1/2 weeks. At my last appointment, my doctor said she didn't think I'd make it to my due date, but now I'm starting to feel like I might. I kind of want to have the baby already, partly--and I'm ashamed to admit this--because I don't want to go to work this week. Last week was so fucking brutal. Not that having a newborn isn't going to be 1,000 times as brutal. But I'm burned out, and I feel like a different kind of brutality would be better than what I've been dealing with lately in the office.

Also, I keep getting Europe's "The Final Countdown" stuck in my head. So it would also be nice not to have to deal with that anymore.
