In no particular order....
1. Drink (although I don't really drink).
2. Smoke ( and I don't smoke).
3. Wear either of my two favorite dresses...the brown taffeta Banana Republic that's so very practical because it has pockets and my black and white B. Moss.
4. Curl up into a tight little ball as I watch a movie on my sofa with my afghan and cat. Sort of impedes that whole breathing thing a little.
5. Listen to opera. Especially La Bohem.
6. Stay awake past 9:15 pm.
7. Eat cottage cheese. Or look at cottage cheese. Or smell cottage cheese. Or even think about cottage cheese. In fact I'm done with cottage cheese all together.
8. Sleep on my stomach.
9. Clean the litter box (not really missing this one).
10. And by next week, button my jeans.

Groundhog: 5 weeks
Hamster: 2.5 weeks
Squirrel: 7 weeks
Bears: around 30 weeks
A whale: More than a year!
Monkey: 20- 40 weeks (depends on specie) - but we should note that monkeys come out able to do stuff, unlike human babies who are pretty helpless, to tell you the truth.
Snowshoe hare: around 6 weeks
Bottle nosed dolphin: 47 weeks
Tiger: around 15 weeks
Indian elephant: 89 weeks!
