My Week in a Nutshell (TGIF!)

I'm tired (zzzzzz) and I'm getting a big prego belly (ok not big but it's there) and I'm training 2 people at work to take my positon (very tiresome and frustrating--and yes, it does take 2 people to replace me :) ) and I get to transfer into the Nursery in 2 weeks (yes!) but then I have to get trained to work in there (ugg) but Feb 9th is my ultrasound (OMG I can't beleive I'm already almost 5 months and we're going to find out the sex of our baby!!!!) so that's about it (goodnight)
By the way, I just realized that the Larry King background in the pic below soooo matches my blog!!! I meant to do that!

Celeb News

Ok, so I'm bored and decided to surf a little & found some really disturbing "news" (if you could call it that) on the web. Thought I'd update myself (& you) on some crazy celeb news. For example:

Emenim & his exwife Kim are going to REMARRY! Do we all remember the song about him murdering her? It was pretty icky. It must be love...check out the full story!

James Frey, author of A Million Little Pieces (that I happen to be reading) supposedly made up some of his autobiographical book about drug rehab & everyone is pissed! I guess it would be a let down if you were an addict who saw him as a role model. The crazy thing is that his book most likely wouldn't have been on the bestseller list if Oprah hadn't chosen it for her book club. (That's how I became interested in it) Lesson: Don't try to pull the wool over Oprah's eyes!

I also find disturbing: Angelina Jolie confirmed she's pregnant with Brad's baby. ugg. Sorry if you like her--I've never been a fan. So how many kids does this make for her? Don't get me wrong, I commend her for adopting those cute kids from 3rd world countries. And I'm sure it was all speculation, but wasn't the main reason that Brad & Jen broke up because she wanted kids & he didn't???? Who knows--you can't believe anything you read.
On a lighter note--Also pregnant: the Gwyns--Gwen Stefani and Gwyneth Paltrow--Love them both! :)
Let's just hope Gwyneth doesn't name this one Orange.
