WAIT! PIRATES ARE WILD!

Little Simpsons allusion for you fans out there.

Basically, this cycle was my first off of birth control. It had been a little wonky. I was convinced I was pregnant very early on though. I took four pregnancy tests in the run of a week and a half (starting *way* too early :P ) and got negatives on all of them.
I was pretty sure that if I wasn't getting a positive by that point in my cycle, I wasn't pregnant. This made me a cranky girl. I stewed inside about how annoying my body was to be messing with me like this...extra long cycle, no pregnancy, when it should know that time is of the essence, given our situation (for those that don't know, I was supposed to get major surgery on my jaw this summer, we were planning to get pg after that, time frame changed on the surgery, so we decided to try for a baby sooner, but still had a limited window).
By week five of this cycle, I was getting particularly irritable. I was craving a cooler, but didn't want to have one until my period arrived...just in case.
Well, while grocery shopping, I decided to get an expensive, hyper-sensitive test to corroborate my previous results. Up to this point, I had been using Dollarstore tests (yes, they sell pregnancy tests at the Dollarstore...who knew) and there was a little voice in the back of my head that said "cheap=less-accurate".
When I got home from grocery shopping, Dave saw the test and laughed. I explained the situation to him and he snickered something about "serious business."
The next morning, bleary-eyed, I peed on the stick. The whole time I fumed to myself about how it was going to be negative and my body was just being a jerk, so on and so forth. I put the cap on and held it at arm's length, not really paying attention, knowing the result already. It took a full 1o seconds for my brain to process the fact that the test line was showing up before the control line. Umm.....wtf!?!?!
After staring at it and putting it down and looking at it again and brushing my teeth and staring at it some more, I decided to share with Dave when he got up. I put it on top of the alarm clock snooze button, meaning it was the first thing he found. Apparently, he didn't even need to put his glasses on to see the two lines.
The rest, as they say, is history.
