I microwaved my yoghurt this morning.
For well over a minute.
It was bubbling by the time I thought “How much time is left on the microwave? Wait… why is my yoghurt in the microwave???”
It was that delicious lemon flavoured mediterranean stuff. If you haven’t tried it, you should. It’s heaven. But after the microwave, the texture went all wrong. I had to throw it away.
And I was very sad and confused. Perfect Husband hugged me and kept a remarkably straight face, and drew me a bath with rose petals in it.
But I still wanted my damn yoghurt.

oh just wait
it gets better 🙂
Yeah, I just read last week that some study was published in The Lancet claiming that “pregnancy brain” is a myth. And the only explanation I can come up with for that result is that the researchers were pregnant themselves.
Just you wait. Once the baby gets here, you’ll plumb depths of stupidity you never knew existed.
Like the time I locked my purse, containing keys & cell phone in the car… in an underground parking garage… AND THE BABY.
True story.
Those f$%#&^g researchers were either pregnant themselves or VIRGIN MEN WHO ARE BITTER AT THE FACT THAT THEY ARE STILL VIRGINS. There is TOTALLY such a thing as pregnancy brain and just wait Carol – it gets worse. I too locked my child, purse, keys and cell phone into the car in the middle of a blistering hot day with the car parked in full sunlight. You are in for such wonderful adventures!!!
Amen.
Do you have any idea how much better I feel knowing that I’m not the only mom who’s done this?
I send you much lurve, random internet person I only know through comments.
lol I’m glad I could do something right today, Hannah! Much lurve to you too, total stranger. God, don’t you just love the internet??
i remembered what i was going to say this morning when you told me this story. i forgot the words to our national anthem. you know that song that we used to sing at every assembly at school? the one that they play before every hockey game? yeah, that one.
i forgot it.
i could sing it in french, i could sing a campy second verse i learned in high school choir. could not for the life of me remember pas “our home and native land…..”
While I don’t have any personal experience on this, I did get to watch my best friend, who had a memory for insanely small details, go from remembering EVERYTHING to forgetting an amazing amount of stuff. But then again, my mom had two of us and her mind’s still very sharp so maybe some people get by better than others?
I love that yogourt! But I like the peach/passion fruit flavour better. Still, that is a very tragic story!

Oh this post made me laugh out loud! 😀
With regards to the study, from what I can remember of the news reports at the time, they concluded that pregnant women don’t get bad at remembering things and things like that – instead, they say that it’s all down to being tired. Which, then again, is a side effect of the pregnancy. Err yeah.
