I Want A New Niece

I realize that this may sound weird. You might ask, well what's wrong with the old one? Nothing in particular. I just want a new one. You see, my sister's pregnant (hence the last post about my up and coming niece) and she really REALLY needs to go ahead and have the baby. The reason for my last post was that on her last doctor's appointment, Mandy was told that "birth was imminent". Now, I don't know about the doctors definition of the word, but since pretty much everything is imminent at one time or another (especially birth) I figured he meant SOON!

But nooooo....

Instead, we all are immensely hopeful that it would be that weekend, the next week, the next weekend, and here we are about 2 weeks later and no baby.

Screw doctors.

Oh and a little P.S. for you. Does anyone actually like Red Bull? Apart from the millions of ads for Red Bull giving you wings and "ohhh Sisyphus" and clothes flying off, not to mention Britney Spears chugging it like milk while she was preggers, does it really improve your performance during times of increased stress or strain? Does it really increase concentration and improve reaction time? Does it really stimulate metabolism?

I THINK NOT!

My experiment for this morning was, wake up, drink a Red Bull to get me started for the day because I had a Biology test at 9 o'clock. So I woke up around 7:30...got a shower (which normally wakes me up half-way anyway) and drank my Red Bull. Not only was it one of the worst things I have ever tasted (lightly carbonated my derriere) but it gave me about a 5 minute sugar rush and then slacked off.

From now on, I'm sticking to Starbucks Doubleshot. Darn those convenience store stockers and their inconsistancy.
