Life by the Numbers

(a post inspired by Irrational Exuberance, as I haven't done one of these in a long while)

300--roughly the number of pages I have left in The Marriage Plot, which came recommended by a former student, as well as Dr. Crazy.  I think I need to teach it, whenever I get back to teaching novels again.  It's like Blue Angel meets The Secret History plus something else I can't think of right now.

110--my current weight

107--my target weight until I am finished breastfeeding

102--my pre-ttc weight

60--minutes scheduled for a massage on Saturday morning, as my mama will be watching Tiny Boy and LG

24--number of cupcakes required for LG to bring to school tomorrow

12 and 5/7--weeks of Tiny Boy's life in the world

12--approximately the number of diapers I change daily

9--kids who will be at LG's birthday tea on Saturday

8--LG's age as of tomorrow at 9:32 pm

7--official work days left of maternity leave

7--usual loads of laundry I wash in a week, 3 of which are diapers

5--the hour at which Tiny Boy's snorting becomes too much for either of us to sleep through

4--consecutive hours that Tiny Boy napped yesterday

4--number of times I have squirted saline up Tiny Boy's nose and attempted a snot removal (yes, Tiny Boy has his first cold)

3--number of coffee/lunch dates I have attempted to arrange for next week

2--number of coffee/lunch dates actually scheduled for next week

1.5--ounces of milk I pumped this morning until I gave up and let Tiny Boy finish it off

1--days left until LG's birthday
