What is this world coming to???

I went to the gym yesterday and normally turn on my ipod and boogie to the songs, but Oprah was on and the show was about a man that was having a baby. Immediately I stopped and turned the ipod to hear what this was all about. I have to admit that I was pretty grossed out- esp by the pics of the man (shirtless and pregnant) and his wife behind him in the picture holding his stomach. He was hairy and it was just weird!
Well come to find out THOMAS used to be Tracy. So apparently He is still a she, but has taken some testosterone to grow hair and had some minor surgery to remove his/her breasts. The testosterone has caused her private area to swell and grow into a little pee pee. Which also freaks me out and he mentioned that he is able to have intercourse with his wife. He said - size doesn't matter right? Of course the whole crowd laughed. So anyways, I guess since Thomas still has her womb, she is able to be pregnant. They interviewed neighbors, families, etc.. most were ok with it, but I'm still a little freaked out by it.
THEN.. I quit watching and turned on my ipod and the song "Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera was on and I started tearing up thinking about the words and watching the tv about that couple and then I had remorse for thinking they were weirdos. As long as they are happy and that baby is healthy and happy- its their life.

What do you guys think?

The ALMOST April Fool's Joke...

I woke up around 1am Tues morning- thanks to EERS whining cause it was storming outside- I happened to see that it was 4/1 on the clock and immediately thought of April Fools. In the past I've played a few pranks on family- one year I got Lucy GOOD by saying that Jason and I were not getting married and we had a huge fight, etc.. this was a month before our wedding! I think this is a fun day :) Anyways, so I thought to myself- SELF- you could really get Jason good right now since he doesn't realize its April 1st and its 1 in the morning. So i laid there for a few minutes and just couldn't get out what I wanted to say. I wanted to be facing away from him - knowing the he was awake my either rubbing his back or something- and say-Well baby I think I'm pregnant again... without looking at him cause I know I would laugh. I know his reaction would be :-0 then I would say- I just feel like I did when I was first prego with Kelson. Then he would say something to me and then I'd say I'll go to the store in the morning and purchase an April Fools test. haha! I never got the balls to do this- I think it was because I didn't want to jinx myself and wind up pregnant again so early. So i did tell him last night that I was going to play this joke on him. He said he wouldn't of been happy nor would he have talked to me for two days... hahaha! I just giggled and told asked him how he would have reacted. He said that he would be happy- I said What? You wanna have a baby again already- he said well no not really, but if you were- I wouldn't mind. He always knows the right thing to say :) What a guy! That's why I married him! and a few other reasons ;) Anyways, I guess its good I didn't play the joke on him, but I did want to share my ALMOST April fools joke with you guys.

My new job.... AND Heartland Update

Well my new job is going good. the pace is defintily picking up. We are working towards a deadline, so everyone is working lots of OT. I'm hoping to surpass that, but help out where I can :) So far everything is going good. Nice group of folks. Its so nice to feel comfortable around a group again and recognize people. Hard to believe I've been here for a month already. Time sure does fly.


HEARTLAND
The boys were in the studio yesterday and are back in today. They are recording three more songs. One of them will be the next single- they are working with a VERY well known producer- James Stroud. He's produced a lot of the big name artists, so they are in good hands. Their follow up release will be one of the four they've already recorded. Things are starting to come together. I believe they are going to try to shoot a video soon too.
They are headed to ALASKA this weekend for a show- how fun. We hope they are given some time to "hang out" but were not sure.
