Warped sense of reality

I am definitely not living a normal life right now. Sometimes I catch myself thinking the strangest things.

For example, just the other day, I was watching this show on tv (probably MTV or something), and I thought how abnormal these girls looked with super-flat stomachs. I actually have become so used to being gigantic and pregnant all the friggin time that it looks weird to me to see girls with flat bellies.

And when I daydream about our future house, I can't escape the renter's mentality. It's nearly impossible to talk myself into making permanent changes to our hypothetical house, like drilling holes or painting, because I'm always thinking, we're so gonna get charged for this. Which is stupid, because when we own a home, who the hell would be charging us?

It's been about five months since Hubby deployed, and even though I miss him, it doesn't seem like it's been so long. The average person doesn't usually go five months without seeing their significant other. Looking at a six month deployment as "not so bad" isn't normal at all.

I guess my version of typical is just really atypical.
