Pregnant Women's Belly Buttons Freak Me Out

I hate Thursdays. After the end of a hard day on a Thursday you know that stupid Friday is standing between you and the weekend. Who am I kidding, I hate all days except for Saturdays and Sundays. As a matter of fact, I dont even like Sundays because I spend all day Sunday dreading going to work on Monday. Thank goodness for Saturdays. I'm ready to retire.

Mother Allison and I are starting to buy a lot of furniture to fill up our new house. We spent the past year or so saving money and now we're fixing to blow it all on a house and a baby. Speaking of the baby, Mother Allison just hit 30 weeks and her belly button has gotten to the point where it looks like it going to be pushed outward at any moment (gross). She knows somebody whose belly button got so big when they were pregnant that it ruptured. I hope hers doesn't do that, I would pass out.

The answer to the last trivia question is 30 Rock, Tracy Jordan said it. This weeks trivia question is: who was the mayor of Hill Valley in 1955 in Back to the Future? Bonus question: what was his "middle name"?

Sometimes You Have To Do Things You Don't Want to Do

Mother Allison and I just got back from a small town in Mississippi (that shares its name with where Matt lives) where we had an early thanksgiving with her family. I think her five year old cousin has a crush on me, she wouldnt leave me alone. It was endearing at first but it became annoying with about the 200th dog bark (spit included) impression in my face. I guess its too late to decide that I dont want kids. But her family was really nice and gave us a surprise baby shower. We got a lot of diapers for presents. Here is a conversation that Allison had with her little cousin: "Is Robert going to change its diaper?" "Of course" "Even the poopy ones?" "Sure" "My daddy had to change my poopy diapers and he didnt want to. Alley, sometimes you have to do things you dont want to do." So profound and so true.

On another note, Videogames. Utility Al and Matt know of my nerdy obsession but I have steered clear of posting about it in fear of being excommunicated from the blogging community...until now. Super Mario Galaxy, its awesome. Its like Super Mario Bros. 3 in three dimensions *pushes glasses up nose*. If you feel inclined to see what its like click here. You all need to ask for a Wii for Christmas and get this game. Ok, thats all I'm going to say about that.

Utility Al, glad to hear that you're back, hope the mountains were nice. You, me, Mother Allison, and Utility Katie need to go on a double date sometime. We could do it one weekend while Matt's in town so he could go (but only if he brings his Future Wife).

The answer to last weeks question is: a shrewdness of apes. Since my poll is going to expire soon, this weeks question is: what TV show is the quote "I'm from the government and I'm here to inspect your chicken nuggets" from?

R.I.P. Jerry

Well I finally did what Tom couldn't do, I killed the mouse. Jerry is dead. Here is how it went down: See, Mother Allison has been INCREDIBLY lazy since shes been pregnant (almost as lazy as me), she leaves food out on the counter, coffee table, everywhere. This is what attracted the little fiend in the first place. What finally set me off and motivated me to murder the rodent was seeing a hershey bar on our kitchen table with tiny teeth marks on it. I knew what I had to do. First we tried those round mouse traps where you don't see the mouse after its dead but that didnt work and then we set four old fashioned mousetraps and woke up the next morning to see that all four were missing the cheese but there was no dead mouse. We're so dumb that we didnt know how to set them so we had to look on YouTube to find instructions. Needless to say we finally got him.

Utility Al got married this past weekend. It was a nice wedding, reminded me a lot of mine. Al, I had no part in sabotaging your car so it wouldn't start. Matt's "Future Wife" was there and she told me that she doesn't want to be called that anymore and she suggested her new name be "JigaMax." I don't really remember where that came from but thats what she wanted me to put so there it is. I like "My Future Second Wife" better (just joking Mother Allison).

Well still only five people have voted on my poll. How pathetic. I guess this blog is more of a personal journal than a blog since nobody reads it. I guess it doesn't help that I update it like once every ten days. Oh well. The answer to the last trivia question is peanut butter but I liked Utility Al's answer better. This weeks trivia: What do you call a group of apes?

Our New Abode

Well its only been about eight days since my last post.... I don't see how people come up with enough info for a blog on a daily basis. I could talk about people that I know but then I would live in constant fear that they would read it. Anyway, here is a picture of the house that Mother Allison and I are building and hope to be in around new years. Its not huge but it will be a whole lot nicer than this apartment and cost about the same per month plus I get my own nerd room to put my comic books and movie posters etc.

Soon there will be a Mrs. Utility Al. Yep he's taking the plunge this weekend. Hey Utility Al, you need to read Matt's other blog and see if you remember those shoes.

Well a total of five people have voted in the poll (wow.) and it looks like Biff's famous one liner is in the lead. The answer to the last question is Jason Todd and he wasn't Robin for long because the Joker beat him to death with a crowbar.

This weeks Q: Coffee is the most recognizable smell to humans. What is the second most recognizable smell?

13 weeks and counting of eight hours of sleep a night until *gulp* Mini Rob or Mini Allison arrives.
