Still the Proud Parents of a Fetus

So, as of about 13 hours ago Miss Anabelle is officially late and her parents (and especially her mother) are not too pleased about it. Actually, it turned out to be a blessing that she didn't come yesterday. For some unknown reason (possibly Jimmy John's poisoning) I suddenly got extremely sick yesterday afternoon around 1:00. I spent the next 3 hours in bed with the shakes and then started feeling extremely hot and got a splitting headache. All I could think about was "please don't let Christy go into labor right now." Luckily she didn't and, happily, though I am still not 100% I am feeling much better today. So now Anabelle is once again welcome to come at any time now (though I wouldn't be terribly upset if she waited till after the Bears game tonight).

Christy and I walked into downtown Evanston on Friday night, had dinner a really good BBQ joint, and then went and saw a movie (Extract). As you can probably see by my review to the right, I didn't think too much of it. Definitely my least favorite of Mike Judges' movies (the best of course being Office Space, then Idiocracy, and even Beavis and Butthead Do America was better). It's not that the film was terrible; it's more that there weren't any truly hysterical parts and none of the characters were all that likeable. Still, at this point we have to treat every night out as potentially our last for a while so it was still a good time.

Today I am just trying to rest up and get ready to watch the Bears tonight (pending fetal escape plans)! Call it Cutler fever, but I am actually quite optimistic about the Bears this year. Their early schedule is pretty tough, but I'm predicting 11-5 and a 1st round bye in the playoffs.
