Not THOSE kind of contractions

So yeah, I now know what a contraction feels like. I am still unsure if they get a lot worse or not. I know they will get a lot closer together but is the pain going to be that much worse?

I sit here, absolutely exhausted with contractions every 8-15 minutes or so. Not close enough to go to the hospital but too frequent to sleep in between. It's AWESOME! Grrrrr.

To top it all off, today we had to turn our old apartment keys in as it is the 31st. We kept the keys to check on last minute mail. We head down there with our pup, Violet, with plans to have Mr. Cookie just run in and run out. He parked, shut the car off and then realized I was staying in the car. He flipped the fans on and ran out. He had to wait a while in the office, meanwhile Violet and I were getting hot so I went to turn the car on all the way. Nothing. The car would not turn over. It just made this weird clicking noise.

So now Violet and I are VERY hot and I am thinking how great it is to be stuck with a broken car, a hot puppy, contractions and one hot day. Mr. Cookie comes out and confirms the car won't start. He makes some calls and roadside assistance says they will be there in an hour. During this time the jackasses that manage the apartments see us with the hood up, me as pregnant as I am and a panting dog and say nothing. Not, 'Is everything ok?' or 'Do you need any help?' Nothing. Then they closed and locked their office early. How sweet. About 8 different people came up to the area throughout this time and not one person asked if we needed help. I'm not a big fan of people.

I have had roughly 4 contractions during the time that this blog was written. Thank you very much and come again!
