Trying to get Past The Jinx

So, I'm trying to shake the whole jinx thing.

"I'm going to buy this, ok?" I said, my finger poised over the "Confirm" button.

"Go right ahead." Mr. DD said, noodling away at scales on his Fender Strat. "It's the one we wanted, right?"

"No, seriously, I'm going to buy this. If I buy this, it means that we're really having a baby."

"We ARE really having a baby. Buy it."

"It's just that it's on sale and everything."

"You haven't hit the "Send" button yet? What are you waiting for?"

A few minutes silence.

"Okay, I'm really, REALLY going to buy this."

So this thing is showing up on Monday morning. It's hard to overcome the whole "jinx" thing entirely. But a bargain is a bargain, so this will be the stylish travel system that The Prawn will be cruising in come March.

I really just bought a baby buggy.

That's a pretty swank looking ride. Come spring, I wanna cruise around in that, with the top down.

I couldn't help but be slightly jealous when the thing showed up this morning. "Why can't we ALL travel around in these things?" Mr. DD asked. "This looks uber-comfortable." And so it does. And Lisalou, it actually has a sun roof of sorts. :)
