Newbie successes

Whoo-hoo! I finally sold my TV on Saturday for the requested price on Craigslist. With all the no-shows and fishy e-mails, I never thought I would ever get it sold and was disliking "Craig" more and more every day. But now...Craig and I are tight. :P Also, this weekend I attempted my first bids on ebay. It's quite an exciting process, I think, waiting for the bid to time out and refreshing every second to see if you're still the highest bidder. I actually won my bids on some baby stuff and am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my packages. Ebay, we shall meet again.

Trung also hosted his second LAN party on Saturday. We had a nice showing of eight gamers and a handful of girls who just came to hang out. The "party" began at 2:00 PM and officially ended around 5:30 AM the next morning. I just so happened to not be sleeping too well that weekend and woke up at 5:00 AM when they were still gaming; it was nice to have the company. Nowadays, I am having trouble just getting to sleep, but at least I don't really have to get up (to get water or pee) during the night, though I still do wake up once or twice. Woe is me...I guess my body is preparing me for the baby. Speaking of which, we've officially decided on a middle name: Alyson. So, baby's name is Lydia Alyson Ly; which my friend Sid pointed out is called an alliteration (aka: using the "ly" theme). Pretty cool, huh? *wink, wink*

So, my first baby shower is this weekend in Houston and I'm getting excited. I've got the perfect outfit picked out, though Trung thinks it looks like a potato sack. Well, um, sorry to break the news, but all my dresses are going to look like that, busta. Most of the guests have not seen me since I've started showing, so I'm really looking forward to seeing their reactions.

This month end does not seem to be quite as busy as it was last month, hence the post. Maybe I'll stick around until the baby gets here...um, yeah, NO! I think my last day will be August 18th, a good two weeks before my due date. I'm just counting the days.
