waterfront

yesterday the midwives confirmed that they baby hasn't dropped yet, which means it will still be a little while before he's born. for some reason, this has had a liberating effect. now that i know his birth is not imminent, i'm pretty content to continue on with my day.

last week b and i were walking downtown and we passed one of his clients. a few days later the fellow said to him "looks like your girlfriend is going to have a baby" and brendan said "you mean my wife? yes, she's due any day now". the guy then mumbled "oh, sorry".

for the last week, brendan and i have been watching star wars. we started at 4 and are now on the last film (3). twice we found ourselves getting tired, so paused it to finish later. out of the three newer films, i like the last one best. it actually has a plot. it answers questions and things happen. even still, b is constantly groaning at the cheesiness of the dialogue.

it took me a while to find oats at metro. i assumed it would be in the flour aisle, but it's with the cereal! my cookies are in the oven. i hope they turn out well!

in this hour of our lives – hour of effortless plenty –
how do we know which parts of our hearts want what?
