  Yesterday I posted about the IRS certified letter that came, I literally spent the rest of the day freaking out. Back story- somehow our 2010 taxes had a correction to something and we owe $850, I've been paying on it every month with the intention of paying the rest off with our tax refund. I thought for sure the letter today would say something awful like they were going to levy our house or car or DH's wages, I was up almost all night with every worst case scenario rolling through my brain. 

  
  

  Fucking shit. The certified letter was a regular monthly bill that we have been getting in the regular mail. I have no idea why they sent it certified this time, but I hate them right now. Glad it's nothing horrible, but SHIT.

  Edited to add: This just started in August. Not sure why it took over 3 years to correct our taxes or send us a bill, but whatever.

  So anyone else seeing an increase of floaters? I check my blood pressure regularly and it's always on the low side (I have other heart conditions that make me check my pulse but my blood pressure has been low), but I also have horrible vision and have to be careful of floaters because it could be probs. Mainly trying to figure out if this is a normal thing with pregnancy or if I need to get into an eye dr.

  The Julia/Giulia thread just firmly reminds me how few Americans learn other languages...

  Or even their own? Gi and ge make a soft g sound in most English words. And I really don't understand how Americans don't get the basics of pronunciation in languages like Spanish and Italian that are such a big part of our culture. Just taking food - If you say lasagna and gelato and quesadilla and and jalapeño so on - don't you eventually pick up on the patterns? I somehow doubt the "goolia" people are ordering "guhlato" for dessert.

  OK totally random (but that’s what this thread is for, right?): It drives me absolutely bat shit when someone pronounces the word “jalapeño” as “HAL-uh-PEE-no” or "HALL-uh-PEE-no" instead of “HALL-uh-PAY-nyo” or even “HAL-uh-pay-nyo” (ie completely ignoring the tilde over the N and the fact that it's more than a cute squiggly line over a letter). I’m not even Hispanic (in fact, I'm a pasty northern European white girl), but I speak enough (and have been immersed in enough) Spanish for it to be annoying when people mispronounce shit. I know, I’m weird.

  I just read the Julia/Giulia thread. That was the biggest waste of time and people really need to expand their horizons. Anyway, who has tried the two limited edition cheesecake doughnuts at Krispy Kreme? If so, are they delicious?

  I need a new foundation. For those that wear it - do you recommend any?

  I use physicians formula compact powder right now and I like it a lot. It helps to have a good brush to apply it. I used to wear bare minerals and I loved it but it's expensive. Then I tried Mary Kay's loose mineral powder and wasn't impressed. PF is my alternate since I can't get the bare minerals right now.

  E.L.F.'s mineral makeup line is just as good (to me) if not better than the Bare Minerals, and 1/10 the price! If I remember correctly all of the products are $3 a piece for a good sized pot, and the brushes are pretty inexpensive. The rest of their basic stuff is only $1 each. Andplusalso I highly recommend their primer...best. stuff. EVER. And the "High Def powder" is amazeballs for setting your makeup for the day, controlling shine, and keeping your face near flawless all day. LOVE their products!

  Seriously. Check them out. I've bought a frickin makeup artist's amount of shit in one sitting and have never spent more than $30 in a single transaction.

  I attribute all the new people to the new year. You know how the gym is always PACKED the first three weeks of January, then starts to equalize out as the resolutioners weed out? Like that. Only I'm betting a lot of April mamas got the wake up call of "Holy crap, my baby's coming THIS YEAR!" and that got new people coming out of the woodwork.

  Ok, can we play: Baby or Braxton Hicks? Because I have no idea what I'm feeling.
  
  As far as I know I haven't had BH contractions yet. But every now and then I get these really jarring blows down low, several times in a row. I've likened it to the baby trying to kick the bottom out of the boat. But it's less of a kick or jab in a specific place, and more of a jar to my cervix. Kind of feels like the pulsing I get from an orgasm, but way less fun. I didn't think this was BH because it's not my whole uterus, and I don't feel anything particularly rigid around my ute, which is how I've seen BH described. Could
  it just be the baby throwing itself against my cervix?
  
  So what do you think: baby or BH? TIA!

  I'm just impressed you're able to wear cute panties. I bought some tents to wear and I'm not going back any time soon. Speaking of, I totally forgot to get my laundry out. UGH. 

  
  

  Hahaahah @ tents.  Unfortunately nothing on my body but my belly has grown.  I was really looking forward to luscious breasts and bottom. 
  
  My ass is huge and my boobs are two sizes bigger but they are far from "luscious" unfortunately. I feel like a whale (wearing granny pants).

  Baby. My BH starts at the top and almost feels like it's rolling over my whole belly and gets really really hard all over. I get the jabby stuff on the cervix and I think it's just Lucas doin a dance!

  Of course this thread will still be fun! We just have somewhere else to talk and get to know each other on a more personal level; especially after our LOs are here.
