Stretch Marks and Staying Positive?

I'm trying to stay positive about all of my stretch marks. It does get me down quite a bit. I worry if they will fade or not. So much for inheriting my mom's skin gene--she didn't get one stretch mark from any of her 4 pregnancies.

So anyways, a few days ago Steven and I were brainstorming what my stomach looked like. I concluded that it looked like that glass ball thing you see at science museums that sends out electrical streams. I found out today that glass ball thing is called a plasma ball.

Steven and I were trying to come up with a name for "that glass ball thing" earlier because we couldn't remember what it was really called. Steven named it/my belly "The Orb of Pain." So much for trying to stay positive...
