10: Van Halen sure sounds good right now. (I usually can’t stand Van Halen.)

9: Did they change the scent of Play-Doh? (It has been years since I have smelled the stuff, but my daughter is really into it right now. I swear it smells different.)

8: I’m too old for this s#*&! (Like Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon.)

7: I want Frankenberry cereal now and for every meal.

6: I’m going to burst into happy hormonal tears every time I hear my two-year-old say the words “baby sister.”

5: I guess an international flight to see Metallica during the third trimester is probably out of the question.

4: I wonder if this $59-dollar green bean casserole in the Williams-Sonoma catalog is any good.

3: It’s weird that Williams-Sonoma sells green bean casserole in its catalog.

2: I wish I wouldn’t have just spent $59 on a green bean casserole.

1: I need a nap.
