I'm glad I could help fill your boredom :)
And so sad to hear how you spent your birthday. That's terribly sad.
Here's to 2009 - may it be filled with love, laughter, and morning sickness ;)
That made for interesting reading, might have to steal it too, down the line.
I have to disagree with your last one though - all of the women I know (myself included) who have gotten pregnant in the last year 'deserved' to as much as the next woman. There's no relation (inverse or otherwise) between how 'deserving' you are and how likely you are to get pregnant.
I hope things work out for you in 2009 the way you hope they will.
