Trying to Get Pregnant

Well, it's official...(intro)

I am NOT pregnant, so its time to step up my game, start temping, and stop being a lurker. Plus some of the posts the last couple weeks have been pretty hard to resist commenting on, so why fight the feeling.
I have been lurking on and off for awhile. I stopped taking BCP about 15 months ago to start TTC, but then I had an amazing job opportunity after three months of "trying" (and by trying I mean aiming for that supposed average of CD 14), so we put that all on hold for about nine months, and we just started "trying" again three months ago. So, by my math, I call that six months of "trying" with no BFP, so I'm going to stop wasting time and start temping. My BBT thermometer should be arriving today or tomorrow, so then the fun can really start.
Looking forward to GTKY all better. Some random facts to get started with...I am 31, DH is 34, we've been married for three years and together for eight years total. This is our first time TTC. We have two dogs, and we live in a one bedroom condo, so it will be a full house if the baby plans works out, since we love where we live and don't want to move! The plan is to discover that I'm secretly the heir to some fortune so we can buy a bigger place but still stay in our cool neighborhood. I'll get right on that!
I have watched the first three tutorials on FF (even had DH watch with me), and will continue with those, and have read the newbie blog.
