Kristin, I'm glad you posted anyway, not because I thought you had offended before, but because your experience is so parallel to my own that I appreciated seeing it.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

My class was pretty progressive for a 1996 hospital-run course. Giving birth in the same hospital that ran the course was completely different. The course was all, "Stay on your feet as long as possible." The L&D nurse was all, "No you can't get up, not even to go to the bathroom."

Once again, I feel like I got lucky with my birth experience here.

Because the L&D nurses were all about me trying position changes and the tub before going for the medicated option, and even when we went for medication, were all about "let's try the less heavy-duty stuff first!"

The only vague regret I have is not requesting the squat bar, but by the time it would have been needed, I can safely say I wasn't thinking all that clearly.

In conclusion, thank goodness for the wireless option when you're in a situation requiring continuous external fetal monitoring.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yay, rooibos!

I'm having a flakey and useless day. Flake is one thing...flaking that messes other people up makes me feel bad. That's not me. I can mess my own shit up.

Ah, well. Home to shower and start errands, and then off to watch the end of a black belt test. One of the testees (uh, that looks wrong) is a boxer, so they're bringing in the literally big not literally guns. They're bringing in a UFC fighter and a 6'8 mound of muscles. Should be fun.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Also the premiere of The Amazing Race 10 , which still finds me looking forward to it. Last season made up for a lot of disappointment.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes. The Intro to the CW thing is on now (in Chicago) -- I think everywhere else has the Felicity pilot.

NFL Films really kind of rocks. They just ran a commercial that's nothing more than a tribute to the hoodie.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I have a secret love for NFL Films. 'Cause their footage? Gorgeous.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

New season of Wire in the Blood starts Oct. 2. Did we know this? I rather like that show.

Honestly, the quality of their work is kind of astounding, perhaps especially in its unexpectedness.
