Amped up

Ever have one of those nights when you know you have to get up early and you just lay there thinking "I have to be up in 5 hours and 13 minutes. Now I only have 5 hours and 12 minutes..."? That's tonight for me. I am so amped up and I can't calm myself down! If I didn't have to be up at 5:30 am I'd take a Tylenol PM.

Okay so the most amazing thing happened tonight. I went to Kelly's house for bunco and was the first one there. Then her sisters in-law, Nikki and Natalie, got there next. We were sitting around chatting and waiting for everyone else to get there, talking about Natalie having her baby anytime now. Then suddenly, (and boy, do I mean suddenly) Natalie tries to stand up and low and behold....her water breaks right there in Kelly's family room! All four of us girls are screaming and jumping up and down. It was so exciting!! I've never seen that actually happen to anyone before. Not even myself!

Anyway, she made it to the hospital safely and is probably in having a baby right now. It's all I can think about. I had so much adrenaline going through me, you'd think I was the one to have the baby! Needless to say we didn't have enough girls to play bunco. None of us even cared. We still sat around for 2 hours just talking and eating (what we do best).

Then I came home and Eric and I watched a video - Disturbia. It was good in a scary/jumpy/stressful kind of way. Anyway, now I have insomnia. 4 hours and 56 minutes till I have to get up and run 8 miles. Bet you wish you were me.

How exciting!! My water broke once but luckily I was in my bathroom. That had to be such a bonding moment for everyone. I hope her labor went well and baby and mommy are doing well.

I've been there, both the water breaking and the insomnia. I've always thought that the nights I'm up would be good times to chat with sister wives who have to be up with babies and such. I don't have any sister wives but this is what I think of at 3am.
