The 13th Has Come and Gone and Now We Listen to Music

Sunil's dream/wish/greatest-want-since-he-learned-of-an-Old-Fashioned, my going into labor and giving birth to Eleanor on Friday, June 13th (a full moon), has come and gone. Now we are back to just plain old waiting.

As he un-patiently waited the arrival of the 13th and potentially our first born child, I made a Birth Plan and an L&D playlist. Thanks to the firm I won a $50 iTunes gift card in our Easter egg hunt. I thought I'd lost it a while back, so it was still full of all fifty dollars.

Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Willome for posting that video with James Blake in the background. I "borrowed" this one and worked from there mixing new music with those soothing favorites I already have. I have five and a half hours of music at this time.
