For some reason, I find typing on the keyboard sort of empowering. It's one of the few things I'm really good at. I can type up to 100 words per minute, at least that was the last time I took one of those tests. It's like magic in a way. I don't even think about what keys I'm hitting, I don't have to look, it's like I think a sentence and my fingers automatically put it on the screen. I credit it to years of playing complex video games. haha I always thought I could get a job at a desk if nothing else but I think I would get bored very easily. When I was in high school and taking computer classes, I used to hate sitting there for hours, typing up something that was already written down. I didn't mind entering data though, make sense of that. Even now, when I'm looking at baby names, I put them into a chart on my computer. I just think everything looks better when it's in little boxes.
Things are like a roller coaster for me right now. I'm never sure if it's my emotions from the pregnancy or if it's something I have a legitmate reason to be upset about. One thing is for sure, I hate DFC. (Department of Family and Children) I called on Thursday to see what was going on with my application since I haven't recieved anything in the mail or a phone call. Well, I ended up having to leave a message and have to yet to hear back from my social worker. Today I got a letter in the mail from the DFC. They are saying my application for Medicaid is being denied BECAUSE I failed to appear for my personal interview. Well, that's complete bullshit because I was there. It was on the 12th of this month. Hopefully, someone at DFC just screwed up because if they mailed me something and the post office screwed up, well then I'M screwed. There's no way they'll believe that it actually got lost in the mail and then I have to start the process COMPLETELY over again. I was telling my mom today that by the time I get some insurance, the baby will be born already. The government really sucks sometimes. I don't see why it's so hard to put things where they belong and send things when they're supposed to be sent. Regular everyday businesses can do it, but for some reason, government offices can't seem to do the simplest tasks.
I have been finding some awesome deals on maternity clothes the last two days. We've gotten three shirts for UNDER four dollars a piece. And another for just over five. I've decided that I will only buy things that are on major sales. I've found plenty of cute stuff for 75% off. We bought two baby blankets this weekend, my grandma bought us one and my mother-in-law bought us some baby clothes. I need to let her know that we'll be needing more older baby clothes. I'm worried she'll continue to buy infant clothes. Babies grow out of the really small stuff before you can blink, better to have the a lot of the stuff they can grow into. Last few days I've felt a few bumps here and there. I don't think I'm going to enjoy the baby moving around. The first time he/she moved, my first thought wasn't 'oh that's too cool' It was more like 'oh crap, it's starting already.'
