Sorry if that bored you, but damn it was a productive day!
Thank you caffeine. I may even break my rule and have you again tomorrow. Maybe not.

it sounds like you had a SPLENDID day!
you know that coffee gave you a headache!
now about this RE in thailand: i'm a little concerned about the fact that they have not responded to any questions submitted on their website. none the less, they may be too busy making babies.
that being said, i think if you are in the area, by all means, give them a whirl. after all, accomidations are included, and food can't be that expensive there.
enjoy your time away from work!
You covered so many of my favourite things in this post... Thai food, mango, B&N at Union Square, Thailand, dessert, Merrell shoes, yoga, music, sperm, espresso, and working from home.
Might be the perfect BFN and post-BFN days. If I ever have a stupid BFN again, I'll copy you even if it does involve a flight to NYC to visit my favourite B&N.
So sorry to hear about the BFN. I know the feeling...
If you haven't bought new sperm yet, I would be happy to chat w/ you about the pros and cons.
Are you going to the march on Saturday?
Grr, it just ate my comment. I was just saying that I'm really productive on caffeine too. Also that I never thought about going to Thailand for IVF. The clinic looks like it definitely caters to americans - they've got a very white baby on their home page!
geeze you did a lot!
umm - i had a question for you regarding insurance. i think we have the same insurance plan. but i had some questions for you regarding the whole RE thing and infertility workups. can you please email me at antoinettemims@gmail.com?
thanks!
Don't give up ladies. Do what ever you have to to keep your spirits up until the spirits smile on you:)
Shopping is the cure all for everything,but getting away on a camping trip is priceless.Even if it's just in central park(lol)
