Stupid commercial

Has anyone seen that stupid Nissan commercial (It annoys me so much I can't link to it here, but just search "Nissan commercial baby" and the video will come up. Basically a woman gets a BFP and her hubby freaks out that he won't be able to keep his 2 door sports car. He then "stretches it out" into a 4 door sedan. I just want to yell at the TV every time it comes on. "Wait you bonehead, don't change your car until the kid is ready to come home from the hospital! Just because you got her pregnant doesn't mean you get a baby!"

Anyone else got a commercial that they hate now that they are a DBM? (I know I also can't stand the i.Phone baby commercials too.)

Maybe I should stick to the Discovery Channel

I am a soap opera addict. Can't give them up and now that I need some kind of mindless distraction during D's naps I am worse than ever. Even most of the prime time dramas I like are just soaps with bigger budgets so of course I love Grey's. Before Reid, I probably cried at least once an episode but since he died, I haven't even been close to crying until last night. (The big season finale) And it wasn't when Meredith had the miscarriage, no I don't get upset over pretend dead babies anymore. It was when Percy was dying and Bailey told him "You're not alone". It just made me think that Reid was alone when he died. We will never know exactly when he died, but it was sometime just before or just after he was delivered. Before he was delivered, I was just so happy to have the spinal and be done with labor and ready to meet my baby. I was thinking about me, not truly focused on my baby. He was alone inside me. And if he died after delivery, he died with a bunch of nurses and doctors yelling and poking and prodding him, not with someone whispering that they loved him. He was alone surrounded by chaos. Either way, he was alone and there's nothing I can do about it. Just one more thing to feel bad about about in this whole mess. And they say that television doesn't do anything for you...

I think I am semi-recovered from the feelings that came out in the last post. Not ready to rush to Calgary to see the new baby but not a big angry sobbing mess anytime a stray baby thought creeps into my head.
