Everyone is pregnant.
Not that I'm not okay with that. Yeay everyone!
Oddly enough, someone at work asked me if I was pregnant today. I mentioned to her that my weekend hadn't been the best because I wasn't feeling well. First, she asked if I had been drinking too much. I thought that question was wildly humorous considering my inability to choke down a beer or stay awake through an entire cocktail.
When I laughed and said no, she smiled, lifted her eyebrows, and made the international mime symbol for pregnancy - hands arching through the air to draw a big beachball in front of her belly. I guess the look on my face scared her, because she spent the next few minutes apologizing.
What my face was trying to communicate was sheer wonder at how she quickly she transitioned from guessing "hangover" to guessing "pregnancy"! Just what kind of an impression have I given this girl?
