Funny

Ok, so tonight I had to go to the store to get the dry ice for my super spermie transporter and the checker was just trying to make conversation. So, while the other guy was getting the dry ice for me, the checker started asking what I needed dry ice for. He asked first if I just wanted really cold pop. Then asked if I was shipping something and just kept asking. So, I couldn't decide if I should just keep trying to dodge the question, if I should tell him it's none of his freaking business or if I should go for shock value and tell him it was for my donor sperm as I was trying to get pregnant this weekend. That would have shut him up. I laughed all the way to my car. I ended up just trying to dodge the question but it was pretty funny. On a more positive note, CM has finally showed up (thank God) and it looks like I'm only about a day and a half behind schedule so I should be good. I will likely be AI'ing on Friday which is good as I don't have to work Friday night. Much preferable to AI'ing tomorrow and then having to come to work. I'm getting so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!
**Update** I picked up super spermies this morning after work. I gave them the old pep talk most of the way home. CM is progressing along nicely and although my monitor still says low (it's went from low to peak before) and opks are still negative, they are getting there. I think by tomorrow. Yay!!!!!!!!!!!

That was too funny....I would have loved to have seen the cashiers face if you said "yeah I am freezing sperm"..hilarious

yeah, I kinda wanted to see the cashiers face when I said that too but the prissy looking lady behind me sort of made me hold back. She was very annoyed at waiting for my dry ice as she had to be somewhere. Well, crap so did I. Work.

hey michell, i'm right with you. still haven't gotten a pos opk and my monitor still reads low, but like you, i've gone from low to peak also. my cm is really good right now and i got a faint second line on my smiley opk at about 3pm (no second line at all this morning). i'm gonna test again in about 30 minutes to see if it's darker. i may end up ai'ing tomorrow too! i'm SO excited. finished painting the nursery today! YEAH!! Good luck to us future mommies!

I'm a bad person. For all these weeks I've been lurking here, following your experience, and thinking that you were on my blogroll. I only today realized that you're not. Ack! Oversight corrected, and I've got my fingers crossed for you.

And next time, please don't hold back with the cashier.
