Okay, anyone else starting to freak out a little. I put in my application for the daycare at Easter Seals, and this is all starting to become "real", if you know what I mean. I've been sitting on my arse with nothing to do but take care of the baby since March so I'm worried getting my momentum up for the task of all that studying.
Also, (okay here's a warning: womanly talk ahead that may make some of you macho guys, or gals I suppose, a little uncomfortable...proceed with caution) I plan on continuing to breastfeed for the first semester at least. The frequency of which will decrease as I introduce more solids, but I'm thinking there may the occasional need to pump while at school (hey, you were warned). So I'm going to be the weird breastpumping girl. Not to mention I'm going to be in that slim 30% liberal category (according to oudoc), that status of which will probably be heightened by aforementioned breastfeeding. So I guess what I'm getting at with all this random rambling is that I'm worried about striking that balance, good mom, good wife, good student. I'm thinking you can't be all three, and I'm probably right. Not to mention, good modmate, I'm thinking the breastpumping, hippie, mommy, half-ass student, not going to be too popular.
Is that a violin I hear in the background? Yes, I think that signals that the time for my whining is over. Please proceed to either a)poke fun, b) tell me to suck it up, or c) be the touchy feely type to say "awww, it will all be okay, you can do it all!", in which case I smell a fellow bleeding-heart liberal, yeah!
