Four months. Four bloody months and I'll be free of this ballooned stomach. Four months and I'll have a baby girl. Four months to pick a name. Four months to get the house completely ready because holy crap I'm not satisfied just yet. Four months and my dad'll be a grandfather. Four months and I'll have no time to do anything but feed and burp and change diapers and run around making sure she's okay and it's four months until I just have no life what-so-ever and oh God I'm going to hate it but love it and I don't know and I'm scared and this is all very sudden and shouldn't there be some kind of transition to this crap?

I'm fat. My ankles hurt. I'm hungry. I want pie. Why is there no pie?

Bah.

I quit my job today.

I don't want to work for that fucking paper anymore.

I want to do photography that matters.

Hi, how is everyone?

I did! I walked up, I told them what I thought of them, they tried to blame it on hormones, and I threw a paper weight at his head and said he could blame that on hormones too. I think they think they fired me. I think it's kind of funny.

That's not funny, that's hilarious!

Boy, though, that's a lucky thing, being able to blame so much on hormones.

I'm tellin ya! Being pregnant is like the ultimate scapegoat. Once the girl pops out? Everything is the baby's fault. "Oh, I broke your vase? No, no it was the baby." "I burnt the food? That was the baby's fault." Etc., etc.

Yeah, and then if I ask Mack to go and have a baby for me, she gets to use all the excuses. Not fair.

You could say you're having sympathy symptoms. I hear a lot of men who are really close to their wives have them. Or at least all of my mom's friends said their husbands had it. Maybe it's a just a Jew thing? SO HEY, WE'RE SET.

You know where there's pie?

The Diner.

I work at the Diner.

So, the Diner has me and Pie.

This is me subtly dropping a hint.

I don't know, Graeme. I don't think I got that. You're saying something about a diner and me... visiting you? I... I don't know... That sounds... so... challenging.

So get over it. :]

Actually, no. The same answer that I gave you when we went over this five minutes ago, substituting pie for crisps. I'm still just saying that you ate it all, thus it's no longer here.

What kind do you want?

Oh... Well... Fine. You're going to slip up and tell me I'm fat eventually because I am and --- ugh, I'm turning into one of those paranoid pregnant women. Kill me.

Apple. And some sort of creamy one. But not coconut. OO, and do you think you could get some of those cheesy flavoured crisps while you're at it? I'm wanting them pretty bad now that you've mentioned them.

I've got lots of naming books! You should take them so I don't have to look at them knowing I'm not pregnant so you can name your soon-to-be-daughter!
