Back at home. Fixing up a quick work-related issue and then nap time!
Waiting to be sent home. Dunno what I'm looking forward to more: coffee or sleep. Maybe both? >:-)
I've been reading everyone's responses for Crystal. She says it's like getting cards. Thank you. We're learning patience :D
Being monitored again and then sent home to come back 12 hours later if things don't progress again. There's a funny movie in this somewhere
Lucky day. We've got another doctor we're familiar with. We're hanging out at the hospital for a while again. Baby can't come soon enough :)
Getting ready for day two. Different doctor today. I'm sure they're great and that someone else would be disappointed to not have them, too.

Baby watch 2011. Still pending. Bedtime for me soon. http://ping.fm/UMk5P We thank you for the support, everyone.
Home. "Call us tomorrow morning if we don't see you tonight". Alrighty. #WaitingGame
May be sent home from the hospital. Again. :p
Heading back to the hospital because we're noobs and can't do this do-it-yourself-labor thing very well :)
Today feels like a good day to have a baby. Skipping out on work now. And at least one of us is skipping the #Canucks game tonight.

I've seen enough Anne Geddes photos to last me a good long time with this pregnancy.
Methinks I should put a little tlc into http://n3wt0n.com/ this weekend. Too many b0rken links and legacy pages that should work but do not.

And another n3wt0n.com post where I ramble about light and shadows and those weird accessible area maps http://bit.ly/kq2qNX
A new n3wt0n.com post where I discuss SpaceFight! and something I thought I discussed already http://ping.fm/uvQU8

I'm fairly impressed with the Unity interface in #Ubuntu 11.04. Will take some getting used to but it's flashy and draws attention.

Played some more Epic Dungeon tonight. That, with Zombie Estate, are my 2 faves on XBLIG at the moment.

Spent the last 10 minutes talking to baby and feeling it kick around. Was like it snuggled up to where my voice was.

Wow. 74 chapters in this book and I'm just starting chapter 11. Still, The Passage by Justin Cronin is very good.
