I just found out yesterday that some women have finally formed a roller derby league for Alaska! I am so excited! Last night I was editing Matthew’s MySpace page and clicked on one of the links to the bars he goes to. They had a bulletin about karaoke with Eddie P (a karaoke jay who knows me personally hehe). One of their MySpace comments was by the AK roller derby league! Woo hoo! I clicked on the link and looked around their page a bit. Seems they just started up! I won’t be able to play this year of course – haha – but I will be able to try out next year after the baby is a year old. This is just so exciting. It’s something I have really wanted to try and now I may get the chance :bananadance:

The weather has been crazy cold. I can’t stand being in it for more than a few seconds. I guess I’m really not a true Alaskan. My heart still belongs to Hawaii. The kids enjoy it. They still want it to snow. Me thinks they are crazy! Speaking of kids – it looks like the teachers are going on strike soon which really cuts into my birthing plans. We were hoping after the baby was born school would be out, so we wouldn’t have to worry about it. Now though, if the teachers do strike, the kids will have to make up whatever time they lost which could go into June. So that sucks.

It’s been like Christmas around the house. I bought a lot of baby stuff off the internet. Things that weren’t on my registry that people probably wouldn’t buy anyway. It’s been fun waiting for the mailman to show up with my special delivery. I just love staring at the baby stuff and daydreaming of what this little girl will look like. I can’t wait. I’m finally beginning to feel excited about the whole thing. Before I felt all blah about it.

Lani and I have a bet going. She says the baby will come out with blonde hair and have blue eyes. I am really hoping for a brunette baby with green or hazel eyes. I have to pass my eye color onto someone in this family!
