I finished the first draft of my short story, The Unremarkable Marcus Frinkle. I'm excited. Now I need to give it a thorough edit, and I can send it off to a magazine. Early next week, I’m thinking.
That’s about it for now.

8 Weeks 3 Days
I took a couple days off of blogging, because, well, I didn't really have anything to write. My wife was feeling well enough (but still crappy) to make that trip to Baby's R Us -- and Sears, the Bay and Wal-Mart. Wow, there sure is a lot of stuff you can buy your baby for the year or so they are small enough to actually use that junk. I'd love to be able to say "you won't catch me blowing my hard earned bills on that crap", but I know full well my child will be a spoiled rotten little brat, and that I will buy him or her (him please!) everything I can possible manage.
Anyways, I was surprised at how large Baby's R Us was -- easily the largest of what we visited. Wal-Mart and Sears had a good selection, about what you would expect, and my wife loved the ample supply of Winnie the Pooh product at Wal-Mart (she’s a big fan of that depressing bugger Eyore). The Bay was rather disappointing; it was picked over and kind of messy, reminding me a little of the Christmas section at any store, about a week after Christmas.
Anyways, other than that, it’s been business as usual. The urinary infection seems better; enough that she can better notice just how nauseous she is. She’s sleeping a lot.
I'm bored and lonely, and I miss my wife. I'm sooo lucking forward to the end of the first trimester, and desperately hoping she feels better as all the pregnancy books have been promising me.
