Hi everybody, Harry Caray here and welcome to "Space the Infinite Frontier". We've got a great show lined up for you, joining us in the studio today all the way from Caltech is astrophysicist Dr. Ken Waller. Welcome to the show Ken. Now Dr., recently they have discovered that there might be life on one of the moons of Jupiter, now that's got to be exciting for you.
Ken Waller: Oh yeah Harry, we're thrilled to discover that life can theoretically exist below the surface of planets due to the heat caused by volcanic activity.
Harry Caray: That's something else. Hey! Let me ask you, what's your favorite planet?
Ken Waller: Well, I don't have a favorite I find them all fascinating, they're all part of a
[is interrupted]
Harry Caray: Mine's the sun. Always has been. I like it cause its like the King of Planets.
Ken Waller: Well, actually Harry, it's not a planet, it's a star.
Harry Caray: Well, planet or star when that thing burns out we're all going to be dead.
Ken Waller: Well that's true but its not going to burn out for a very long time.
Harry Caray: I hope not. Hey! Dr. have you ever seen an eclipse?
Ken Waller: Yeah. I've seen many.
Harry Caray: You know if you star at it head on it'll burn your eyes out.
Ken Waller: Well its not best to stare at the sun during an eclipse.
Harry Caray: But it's hard not to. I once took a pair of binoculars and stared at the sun for over an hour.
Ken Waller: Why would you do that?
Harry Caray: Curiosity I guess. Heck! I'm curious like a cat. I have a couple of friends that call me whiskers.
Ken Waller: Because you're curious like a cat?
Harry Caray: Yes
[pause]
Harry Caray: Hey! Now Ken, we all know that the moon is not made of green cheese.
Ken Waller: Yes, that's true Harry.
Harry Caray: But what if it were made of barbeque spare ribs, would you eat it then?
I'm having a HORRIBLE morning. Truth be told, I'm not super pumped about being pregnant. Emotionally, this has been a challenging time in my life (factoring in my going-without Effexor) due to work stress and work travel. It seems faux pas to talk about pregnancy negatively, especially since many women nowadays are experiencing challenges getting/staying pregnant. Well, I'm not going to sugar coat anything about the situation-- I don't love being pregnant. Yes, I am excited to meet our little son. Yes, I look forward to having children, etc. HOWEVER, I don't like this hijacked feeling within my loins, the weight gain, the mood swings, the random HUGE zits on my face, the swollen hands and feet, the repulsive feeling I think I give my husband when he sees me in my underpants, etc.
The only things that have kept me above water is (literally) my dog and my husband's patience and sense of humor. Seriously. Kasia snuggles with me every morning and its my favorite time of day. Her ears possess a magical softness that can't be compared to anything less than chinchilla. And Chris..... well, he is nothing short of handsome and the fact that he cracks me up every single day is like a small glass of margarita.

Lady, pregnancy is no walk on the beach. Well, maybe a beach where it's 95* with 110% humidity so you feel like crap and there's a hurricane headed your way, so you don't know WHAT to expect in the future, and you already got bonked in the head by a tree branch so you aren't even sure if you're in your own body anymore... yeah, that kind of beach. You should not feel guilty for admitting that you're not having fun. Although I get why you're feeling that way too. Hang in there!
