so maybe this is not the appropriate place to tell this story, but it's the middle of the day and everyone i know is at work. or class.
and besides. susan talked about this in her blog once. so. there.
i decided that i was pregnant. this morning i decided that. i mean. i have slight reasons. but no substantial evidence. i felt a little nauseous. i'm waiting for the "proof". so i decided to take one of the pregnancy tests given to me by my lovelies at my bachelorette shower. and since i've never taken a pregnancy test before, i was kind of excited about it.
so i got it out. looked at the instructions. and told charlie i was going to take it. he glared at me and told me not to "waste" one when i KNEW i'm not pregnant.
but i ignored him and peed on it anyway. i set it down on the counter and waited. i'm pretty sure it took less than the 60 second minimum to show perfectly clear that i was NOT pregnant, but i decided to wait the whole 3 minutes.
nope. still nothin. then i thought to myself about how i could be a trickster. so i ran over to my jar of pens and sharpies to look for the most appropriately colored sharpie. found it. i took it to my pregnancy test and colored on the + for positively pregnant.
then i yelled "hey char! come see! i can't tell." he looked at the test. then at the paper. at the test. then at the paper. then at the test. then at the paper. and finally said "i think it says right here "test is invalid if you draw on the +"."
i actually thought i tricked him all the way until we got to school and he revealed that he was just trying to come up with something to say. but i still choose to believe that pregnancy test was NOT wasted. you should have seen the look on his face :)

all i'm going to say is that taking one of those pregnancy tests from my bachelorette party just, what, 1.5 months after getting married resulted in 13 hours of labor 9 months later.
