I just answered the waiting to O thread yesterday, so I'll spare you the details today. However, I always like the GTKYs:
GTKY: What did you originally want to be when you "grew up"? Did you end up doing it?
When I was in first grade I wanted to be a paleontologist....a dinosaur excavator pretty much. I had tons of dinosaur encyclopedias and big thick books that I would "read". Haha!
When I was in middle school my dream was to go to Duke and be a forensic scientist. I loved CSI and played all sorts of forensics computer games, and I wanted to be the hero in the "whodunit" cases. :]

I just think it's funny that my friend was bragging at a baby shower yesterday how she thinks she's come up with the ultimate way to ask if you're pregnant without being rude. "Any baby news yet?".
You know what friend? I love you, but you will not be the first person I tell that sperm and egg have met. I think the next time she asks I'm going to go into detail about when we've had sex.
To me that's even more rude than "Thinking about kids yet?" or "Any babies on the horizon?" "Baby news" implies that there is a baby that there's news about. Friends can be dumb sometimes!!

I originally wanted to be a Veterinarian. I ended up going to school to be a Vet Tech, so pretty darn close. I am doing what I have loved since I was a child...working with animals [&]
For the longest time I wanted to be a marine biologist (please tell me I wasn't the only child that became obsessed with dolphins and killer whales after Free Willy came out). Then I realized that was science and I wasn't a fan of that.
I 100% wanted to be a marine biologist! I even looked into a school where I would spend my last 2 years in Hawaii. I ended up being too scared to commit to the program...would have been fun though! I ended up still working in science, and I'm in school to be a PA now...kinda close. Right?

We've decided we should wait, and I know its the right decision for us right now, but I'm still bummed about it. To top it off, a good friend just told me yesterday that she's KU.

What are you doing to get KU? Temping, charting, sex, PNVs
Chart Stalks/Vents/Comments: Vents and comments. First off, I know it takes a while for your body to regulate itself, but I just want to confirm an O. I feel like being on CD23 without an O yet is crazy if my last cycle was 33 days long. I guess I can expect a longer cycle this month, or just a cycle without O all together.
I know I've read somewhere that being a mouth breather at night can mess up your BBT if you're taking it orally. Can anyone provide any more info on that? And how exactly do you take your BBT vaginally? I THINK I'm a mouth breather and I'm thinking that may be why I haven't been able to see any temp shifts.
GTKY: What did you originally want to be when you "grew up"?
Did you end up doing it?
To be honest with you, I can't remember what I originally wanted to be. It probably had something to do with horses or being a vet. I definitely did not end up doing either of those things. I'm in HR now. It's really not all that bad. I have a pretty flexible schedule and a M-F schedule. It could be worse!

What are you doing to get KU? Temping, charting, sex, PNVs
Chart Stalks/Vents/Comments: Vents and comments. First off, I know it takes a while for your body to regulate itself, but I just want to confirm an O. I feel like being on CD23 without an O yet is crazy if my last cycle was 33 days long. I guess I can expect a longer cycle this month, or just a cycle without O all together.
I know I've read somewhere that being a mouth breather at night can mess up your BBT if you're taking it orally. Can anyone provide any more info on that? And how exactly do you take your BBT vaginally? I THINK I'm a mouth breather and I'm thinking that may be why I haven't been able to see any temp shifts.
GTKY: What did you originally want to be when you "grew up"? Did you end up doing it? To be honest with you, I can't remember what I originally wanted to be. It probably had something to do with horses or being a vet. I definitely did not end up doing either of those things. I'm in HR now. It's really not all that bad. I have a pretty flexible schedule and a M-F schedule. It could be worse!

I really wanted to be an astronaut back in like 2nd or 3rd grade. Of course at that time I wasn't aware of how much I would grow to hate math and physical exercise. I just thought Christa McAuliffe was the business!
