First Pregnancy Meltdown
I feel this might be early to be having a meltdown over food but I figured I should share in case anyone finds this funny. As I've mentioned, I'm struggling with pretty intense morning sickness. I'm extremely nauseous a majority of the day (even on medication) and food isn't something I'm crazy about right now. So, last night my husband said he wanted to just order in pizza. Well, for some reason even though I normally LOVE pizza, it just hasn't sounded good the last week. I told him I'd rather have a meatball sub from Casey's or something. Well, of course, subs didn't sound good to Devan but being the wonderful husband he is he went for subs anyway. He decided to hit up Subway because he doesn't like the experience of getting subs at Casey's. So, he drove 10 minutes further down the road to Subway. When he walks in and starts ordering my sub the employee regretfully informed him that they were out of meatballs. I'm sure Devan's heart dropped considering he was about to call me with this news. Cue the wrath of the pregnant lady.
ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME? HOW COULD THEY BE OUT OF MEATBALLS AT 7:30 ON A WEDNESDAY NIGHT?! DO THEY NOT KNOW HOW TO DO THEIR JOBS? THIS IS SO RIDICULOUS. DID YOU TELL THEM I'M PREGNANT?
Yeah... I was yelling. Not my proudest moment. But wait, it gets better. Devan then asked me if the Steak and Cheese would be an okay substitute. I thought about it for a few seconds and decided that sounded fine. OF COURSE, the Subway employee again informed Devan that they were also out of steak.
ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!?!?! I AM GOING TO EFFING LOSE IT. DO I NEED TO COME UP THERE AND EXPLAIN TO THEM HOW PISSED OFF I AM? DO I NEED TO CALL A MANAGER AND ASK WHY THEY CAN'T KEEP THEIR FOOD STOCKED?! WHY DOES SUBWAY ALWAYS DO THIS?! I HATE SUBWAY. I HATE THEM I HATE THEM I HATE THEM.
So, then Devan started listing off other sandwiches and of course, being in early pregnancy I'm paranoid about deli meat so I didn't want to come near any of that with a 39 and a half foot pole. I told him at this point to just pick a sandwich because I didn't care anymore because Subway was stupid and apparently doesn't cater to pregnant woman. YEAH, I KNOW. Don't judge. Remember, I've been extremely sick and when I want food when all food sounds horrible it's a pretty special moment.
Devan came home with a Chicken, Bacon, Ranch sub with double meat and double cheese. Yowza. I took one sniff of that sandwich and almost ran to the bathroom. Then, I made the mistake of looking at it. Yeah, not a good idea. So, I sat there trying to keep the urge to run to the toilet at bay while still trying to appreciate everything my husband had just gone through trying to get me food. I sucked it up and took a bite. It didn't kill me but it definitely wasn't enjoyable. I ended up eating half the sandwich and then needed to get it as far away from me as possible as I just couldn't do it anymore.
I went and grabbed a Jolly Rancher Popsicle. If you haven't tried these go get one right now. ESPECIALLY if you have morning sickness. This allowed my nausea to slightly subside for about 20 minutes or so where I was able to talk about Devan's Subway experience. He told me that there was a woman paying at the register who could hear me yelling through the phone and was smiling and laughing a little bit. Devan had mentioned to the guy that I was pregnant and so of course, I could only imagine what was going through her head. I hope, if she's been pregnant before, she understands and felt sympathy for me. I hope she just didn't think I was some crazy woman with unreasonable expectations. Though, let's be honest here... Were they really that unreasonable?
I'm sure there will be plenty more of these in the future because it's still very early so keep checking back for more stories of me embarrassing myself and my poor husband.
