UPDATE: More pictures...

Michelle's water broke around 4:30am this morning and she and John headed off to the hospital!!! There are apparently a lot of woman giving birth today though since Michelle hasn't been given a room yet- well to be fair her contractions are still very mild and there are woman coming in who are much further along. They have mostly been hanging in a triage area but at one point even the triage area was so busy that they got booted out of that bed. But no worries, they went to a comfy spot and watched an episode of "The Office" on John's laptop! They are back in triage now and just chill'in. If the baby is born today Michelle will get to bring her home on Thursday which is Michelle's birthday- I can't think of a better present!!!

I'll update this when there is more news!!!

I'm shocked, shocked to discover that opening up a Starbucks across the street from another Starbucks has not proven to be good business practice.

I mean, I like Starbucks. I like it a lot more than Coffee Bean, for example. But I stick to drip. And being something of a coffee fanatic -- I really did enjoy their darker and bolder African and Pacific Rim brews -- I'm a bit disappointed that they're serving this blander Pike's Place stuff now.

Incidentally, you wanna know where to go to get some consistently good, fresh, high quality beans to brew at home? Trader Joe's. Some Fair Trade Organic Nicaraguan whipped up with expertise here at Casa HQ makes for a fine pot of black gold.
