Belly itches and other stuff

A bunch of random things are going on these days so here's a post to jumble them all together.

Nate finally made it home on Friday and we had a little date night. We went to an Italian restaurant that we haven't been to yet in Macae, surprisingly. It's nothing special but it's one of those places that you never think to go until it's too late. Anyway, the food was expensive but good. I ordered wrong for the first time in a very long time. The list was confusing and I didn't pay much attention but I thought I was ordered pasta and it turned out to be bruchetta. Little pieces of bread with gorgonzola on them. The list said pastas so I blame them :) not me not paying attention!

Dinner went great until I saw a rat the size of a small cat scampering on the pipes by the ceiling. Sad to say but I was more intrigued then appalled. This is Macae and you can expect anything. The same standards that I have heard come from Rio and Sao Paulo do not exit here and they come at a higher price. Nate fought me on what I saw but I know a rat when I see one. Turns out the hill that the restaurant occupies has problems with rat infestations. Gross but what are you going to do? Kinda sucks though to spend almost USD$100 for two appetizers, a small pizza, two waters and a beer for Nate only to watch the rat show.

Saturday Nate suggested that we walk on the board walk and I almost had a heart attack. He never wants to walk with me on a Saturday morning. We ended up running into friends and decided to have lunch with them which turned into an all day event involving the Hangover 2 and dinner out with even more friends.

For me the past few days my belly has been itching like crazy and I cannot put enough shea butter on it! Now will be the point where I get stretch marks because I am an over filled balloon. I recently went through my closet to find shirt that actually fit over my expanding waist line which didn't go so well. I am very limited at this point and the weather keeps getting colder. Things are going to get interesting in the next few months!

I found out that I am missing two critical shirts in my closet. I have no idea what I could have done with them. The search will continue and until then it's going to drive me crazy. Two actual maternity shirts that I recently bought are missing :( Easy thing would be to blame Claudia but I am absent minded enough to lose things on mine own. Tomorrow I will ask her though if she has seen them because maybe she put them in a weird place.

The weather is actually cold! For me at least. I think Nate is loving not sweating every moment of the day. For me this means long pants and a long sleeve shirt. Possibly even a jacket for the evening. When we went to the movie theater the place even had the heater on! Only in Brazil! Honestly I think it's only in the upper 60's but when your used to upper 90's that a big change.

Not much else going on right now just a lazy Sunday planned.

Tchau,
