Here she is. Odessa Rose Adams made her debut March,19 2007 at 7:09pm

Here I am 32 weeks pregnant and all I can think about is that in 8 more weeks I'll be able to eat sushi again. I'm not afraid of laboring, I am afraid of having to get a c-section. I won't be requesting an epidural or any drugs. I have complete faith that JD will be a great help while I'm laboring. I am not worried that I will have a hard time breastfeeding. I'm not even concerned about how long labor might be. All I know is that in the end I'll be holding my baby and hopefully soon after stuffing my face with tuna nigiri.

Photographic evidence that there exists a Trish who is 32 weeks preggo. I didn't think that I would ever take photos of my belly but it's hard to resist the request of a friend.

At 32 weeks pregnant I:
-experience hip pain while sleeping
-pee a lot (big surprise)
-am still chasing the cat around the house trying to get it to stop jumping on counters and the kitchen table
-annoy my husband with my eating habits
-missing sushi
-waiting for my belly button to "pop"
-can now belch with the best of them (Where did all this gas come from?)

The Adventure Quest team has at long last come out with their video short. YATTA! YEAH! WHOOPEE!


If you too would like to slay undead and team up with Artix von Krieger have a go at DargonFable.

Highlights since my last post:
- We've settled into our new home and are loving it.
- I have a 20 minute walk to class.
- She-Ra and Raz are a cat couple. They lick each other, to me that consummates their relationship.
- I am 19 weeks pregnant.

Raz Matahari likes to be on the move and exploring.She-Ra is shy right now but is coming out more and more. For only having them for two days I think they are doing rather well.

Soooo.... JD and I moved into a condo in Lowell,MA about two months ago. We love our new home and are happy to be in it. We also decieded to adopt a cat. We looked on petfinder.com to check out some of our options. I was interested in a female calico named Kitty she was older and declawed and a fat cat. JD didn't like the looks of her on the website. We agreed to go to the Lowell Humane Society on Saturday to check out the kitties. Long story short we not only got Kitty and renamed her She-Ra we adopted a tiger named Raz. He is now known as Raz Matahari and is insanely adventurous and fearless. We've had him for two days and he's already out of the safe room. She-Ra is another story she has been coming out of her hiding spots but definitely needs to explore further when Raz is not going to be around to hinder her. They are getting along ok, meaning they haven't brawled, but it would be nice for the growling and hissing to be less frequent.

There's alot lot to love about Lowell.

Bette Davis is from Lowell!!!

Woo Hoo the last box has left plainfield and we are turning in the keys by the end of this week. Next mission is to unpack all the boxes. Nine years of stuff doesn't easily find a new home. *sigh*

Woo Hoo the closing is complete! We are moving in Sunday!

Adam is diggin his super cool awesome skull sweater. 

One more week and JD and I will be saying goodbye to Plainfield St and hello to our new pad. Meanwhile we are still packing and throwing shit out. Ugh I'm never going to move in the middle of a semester again!

Last night we went to Newbury Comics and purchased some CD's. We haven't done that in quiet a while. I was determined to get some Johnny Cash. Yes I like Johnny Cash. I'm not sure when it happened but I really like When the Man Comes Around. It's just good.

Let's see I've finished Adams skull sweater, knit myself some pants and am restarting a top down raglan sweater. I wasn't going to but after talking to Brandy about it over sushi last night I'm going to be adding short rows to it. I need a "boob pocket" as Brandy calls it. She's right short rows are my friend. I've knit myself sweaters and haven't worn them because they fit all funky. Damn it that most freaking patterns are written for those who are not overly boobie.

That's right we got hitched 

I finished Tie One On usingRowan Kidsilk Night in Dazzle . It came out rather lovely and now I have to find a broch to wear with it.

I started the Shapely Tank some time ago and never finished it. I was looking to reduce the stash and found the beginings of the tank. I ripped it and began again. I'm so excited to work on this. Especially since I need to practice with short rows. I plan on using this powerful technique to add ease in the bust area.

I am also making a bunny hat for JD's nephew. He's going to look so cute in it!

I tried to make whipped cream today in my food processor. All was going fine and dandy but I wasn't sure if my cream was whipped enough so I let the whipping action continue. JD comes over and looks into the food processor and tells me that I should probably turn it off because it was beginning to look stiff. I said nah I still need to hold out for those peaks the instructions mention. Well, a few secs later the cream starts to seperate. JD then comments on how it looks like I'm starting to make butter and sure enough I was scooping out butter. I let the cream whip for too long. There is a fine line between whipped cream and butter... a fine line.

I talked about aspect of Multivariable Calculus and Differential Equations to my friend Marc today and he actually said that I was making him miss math. Now that is something I never thought I would hear anyone say.

There is a fair isle pattern in the baby jumper that I am making and I figured that it was about time for me to learn how to knit English style. I used to crochet when I was younger so when I taught myself how to knit I just held the yarn as I would if I were corcheting. I found out that this style of holding the yarn is Continental. But since I have to switch back and forth between two colors I figure that it would just make sense to hold one color Continental and the other English. After 2+ years of knitting Continental trying out this new style makes me feel like I'm all thumbs. I will win though. I'm determined to conquer the English technique!
In case you have no clue as to what I'm talking about check out these videos on knitting techniques.

I went to A Good Yarn today to get more Blue Sky Organic Cotton for yet another Baby Bobbi Bear. The last time that I was there I noticed that they carried the yarn that I'm using to make JD's sisters babys jumper out of. So I grabbed the label and went only expecting to find the color that I needed. Boy did I luck out. Not only did they have it in the color that I needed it was from the same dye lot as the skiens that I had picked up from Circles! I'm so happy that I finally get to finish the jumper and the hat!

Hello, I am the Friendliest Little Demon.
