rosebeeI was *sure* I'd updated recently, but I guess not.
Anyway, since we last saw each other...
-On Saturday I had a serious 6-hour power shopping trip with good friend E. She's VERY pregnant (due May 5th), and we went shopping for all the rest of the stuff she needed for her baby girl & for her hospital bag. I had a TON of fun. HTB & I will likely never bother having kids of our own, so it was an honor & a joy to be able to help E get ready for her baby. I'm also officially going to be Aunt![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rosebee!!! :D
-On Sunday HTB & I went to go talk to the photographer we want to hire for our wedding. There was some interesting miscommunication about expections, but it all worked out (I was going in thinking we'd get some details and if we liked what we heard we'd hire him then & there - as we had a guaranteed price sheet & there was nothing to be negotiated). HTB was kind of irritated because he wanted to not let the photographer know that he was the one we wanted to hire, so we could negotiate, and HTB was irritated because he thought we should've done better interviewing him. We talked & I explained how there was nothing to negotiate, and we interviewed him by thoroughly examining his work when we talked to him at the Bridal Show. So now after work today we're going BACK to the photographer's place to give him the $200 deposit and sign paperwork.
-I *really* miss the uninterrupted/contingous sleep I got as a single person. If my breathing patterns change in the middle of the night it wakes HTB up and then he wakes me up because he's concerned I'll forget to start breathing again. This isn't sleep apnea, I'm not severly snoring like that, just taking slower breaths. Normally I'm the one that steals the covers but last night he was the culprit. I woke up twice last night because I was cold & only had half of me covered. And I wake up if HTB's snoring.
I still fall asleep quickly and easily, but I used to say a bad night's sleep was when I stirred & slightly woke up once or twice. I've changed that definition slightly. Now just stirring and not really waking up all the way doesn't even count. Waking up only once does not constitute a bad night's sleep. Waking up twice is unpleasant but not really bad. Three times is bad.
Of course a solid week of waking up twice during the night is bad.
I swear I'm going to crash early tonight, steal all the covers for myself, and maybe even wear earplugs (I'm bound & determined to sleep all night long without interruptions)!
