off task...

...educator's are the best resource for names. chandeleira jala. we need look no further.

...week 10. feeling good. i've fortunately been spared morning sickness. the past week has been more mental prep than any physical or spiritual epiphanies. all the financial particulars of maternity leave, medical insurance, life insurance, daycare vs nannies. i'm in a slight panic to get life under control on these fronts (or at least some sort of plan). jala's been kind enough to humor me as i come up w/ something new to worry about every hr or so.

...we just got back from an open house in the neighborhood where we lulled ourselves into the what if? game. what if we had 2400 sq ft of newly remodeled home to start a family? is the marital strain of renovating or tearing down and building anew equivalent to the financial strain of a mortgage we can't really afford? its appealing but unfortunately not realistic.
where does this obsession with square footage come from anyway? mom and dad had 3 kids under 5 in a one bedroom apartment. we should be ok in 810 sq ft for at least a few years. or until we figure out how to build casa jalanquera for $150/sf.

...collapsing into bed before the sun set in seattle led to insomnia at 5 am. i found this: www.mascot.net
