Oh baby, no baby (yet)

It's Sunday afternoon and we are still sans McNugget.

However, Jonathan and I are having a fantastic day getting the house in order. We are prepared for this kid to be born tomorrow since that's her due date and we have nothing else to go by. We are moving through the house like a whirlwind taking care of the tiniest errands that we won't want to think about once the McNugget is here.

Tonight we are going out on what could be our last date as a two-person family. We are going to Caioti Pizza Cafe, one of our favorite restaurants which also just happens to serve a salad that is supposed to help pregnant women go into labor. The urban legend is that you will go into labor within 48 hours of eating the salad. I am pretty skeptical but their food is fabulous so we decided to go there and give it a shot any way.

I have no plans for my life post July 14th. If the McNug is not here by then, I don't know what I will do with myself. I am a big time planner and I hate having nothing to do. I am sure I will find something. . .

You know, some of us on this other Continent are waiting for the McNug to storm the Bastille!

You also realize that if she comes out within 48 hours, that in no way proves the power of the salad. There are serious epistemological problems concerning controlled experiments that need to be resolved first.

As a person who may some day in the (far?) future be a pregnant lady, it is positively encouraging to hear that you are out and about!

I want to know what is in this magical salad. It seems like it is something out of a fairy tale and so it should have fairy tale ingredients like, umm... nettles and thistles and various sorts of roots(I am having a hard time thinking of fairy tale ingredients, but you know what i mean!).
