good omens

Day 9 DPO and no symptoms other than my overall IQ seemed to have dropped dramatically in the past few days resulting in a mindlessness so severe that I would feel desperately sorry for myself if I could actually muster up that much thought.

So... no real symptoms but I did receive a sign from the Universe, in case I wasn't sounding appealing enough from that first paragraph. You see, I don't recall if I blogged about this or not but the month that I did actually achieve pregnancy, I had lost about 300 eye lashes in the days leading up to my positive test result. No joke! Those suckers were dropping off of my face like crazy and I was catching most of them and making wish after wish after wish. Never mind that I looked like an android with no eyelashes afterwards... it was a much needed and important well of wishes that came my way so I took full advantage. Which leads me to my current day situation. Yesterday we were driving along in the lesbian soccer mom car and drake noticed a lady bug on the dash board above the passenger's seat. I screamed "MAKE A WISH, FAST!" and we did. THEN, (and this is the creepy part) about an hour later, we had to swing by home to pick up a gift before going to see our friend's newborn baby and drake ran into the house real quick to grab the present and came out saying... "holy shit, we have a lady bug infestation!" There were like 6 lady bugs all along the door panel to our front door. I shouted "SHUT UP AND MAKE A WISH!" ... and we did. I was ecstatic. Surely this is a VERY lucky and good sign from the universe. There is NO other explanation for it. Secondly, I got to hold and coo at and smell the head of a 2 day old baby which supposedly is always good for the fertility factor. Something about pheromones, maybe? Lastly, Doc Grumbles dressed up like The Fertility Fairy and sprinkled me with invisible fairy dust. I'll take it! Thanks for thinking of me!
