While I was driving home from work today, I got this phone call from this really good friend of mine, Douglesworth. He was one of the favorite journeymen I've worked with. We still keep in touch, and he had some interesting information to share with me. He heard a rumor about me today. Someone told him that I was pregnant!

I about choked when he asked me. I reassured him that I am not and don't plan to be pregnant any time soon. That's what he figured though. He told the gossiper that he must be mistaken, there is no way I could be prego right now. I have my IUD.

weird that baby talk is running rampant right now. My big sis is pregnant. I'm hoping for a girl. Someone for me to teach to weld. When my brother's woman told him about Sis's baby all she said to him was "your sister is pregnant." He's all Woah, Tammy's pregnant? Wow! Going on and on about. Evil as Manda is, she went with it for a bit. "yeah, can you believe it? Tammy's having a baby!" She was telling me about this the fourth of July. Plus Tess is going to have a baby soon. She is getting really cute with her little belly. Then there was the pregnancy rumor that just went around.

Pardon me as I panic and run far far away into the jungle where there is no such thing as being pregnant.

Ivan made me a card the other day. Don't know exactly when he made it seeing as how I haven't seen him since Monday. But this card is so sweet. Telling me what it means when he tells me he loves me. He made it! My heart melted. I was a goofy grinning love sick girl all day long. Completely lifted my spirits. I get to see him tonight when he gets off of work. Won't be till one in the morning or so, but at least I get to see him.

I'm going to have candles lit and be awake when he gets here. I'm going to have to set my alarm, cuz I know there is no way I'll be able to stay awake all night.

Beer Thursday was fun yesterday. There was lots of people there: Bulldog, Sparky Jon, about 5 iron workers, me, mikey, garret, dave, Val and Alexa. Chris even got to come over and have some drinks with us. I think Chris might even try to make it to more and more beer thursdays.

I realized something about me and Garret. We are some sort of Kindred Spirits. Pat the iron worker friend of mine was asking me and Garret how long we've known eachother, and we both realized that it feel like we've known eachother for years. Bus I've only known him since the end of January. Pat was able to see the friendship between us. Then the three of us went to Pats house to party a little longer. Some more bonding time with Garret. I did tell him yesterday that I have no intention of hurting Ivan. I think he is getting more and more ok with us being together.

Well off to drink more cough syrup with codine in it. That means it is off to night night land... till that is Ivan showes up...
