stroller search continues...

i finally got to work on my baby registry. although we've been given more clothes than i know what to do with - plus three bouncy seats, an infant car seat, a crib (soon to be two - one for my mom's house),a co-sleeper, two playmats, a jumper that fits in the doorway (i'm reminded of axel's hellacious jumping and how scared i was he was going to bounce himself right out of the door and have visions of merit doing the same). of course i still needed to register for some stuff. unfort. most things i need are kind of expensive - stroller, high chair, car seat, pump (def need one of these - working mom and all), bottle steamer/sterilizer. thanks to kate i made my way through babies r us with good suggestions - especially when it came to the stroller. the two of us could not fold the stroller i thought i wanted to save our lives. we actually ended up leaving it in a half-folded mess on the floor. lesson one: make sure you can easily fold a stroller AND that it will fit in the back of your honda - with room to spare (which that one did neither). ok. so i found a much cheaper one, that is light and folds easily into basically nothing. score. i still need to take jack b/c he's decided he wants a three wheeled one so he can go off-roading with it or something. something about big sturdy durable tires. whatever. at least i've gotten most of the registry taken care of. one less thing to do.
the major thing on my mind is thesis writing/finishing. as you can tell, i'm completely procrastinating by just posting this. but i woke up in a sweat last nite that i would never finish this thing, so i hope thats going to kick my butt a little to get going. i spent the three hours that lost was on working on figures last nite. and i still feel totally behind. but i'm really not! ah, i just need to sit down for an ENTIRE day and work on it. and yet, there always seems to be something better to do...funny how that works.
speaking of lost and procrastinating - i've spent the majority of today reading various posts about the season finale. all i can say is 1) i hope juliette stays in that hole. hate her! 2)WTF?! 3)locke?! wtf again. EW has some interesting theories. i'm glad other people think about this so i don't have to. i would say the last 20 minutes or so were fantastic. espec. when Juliette got sucked down the hole....did i mention i hate her and her stupid pouty face?
