I was ready to pass out when the baby threw a fit because her diaper had burst in what can only be called a meconium explosion.
Cleanup on aisle seven!

Don’t watch ’em if you hate reading about other people’s kids… I never get much gooier.
Baby Mina! (with photos)
Everything went well!
We have a new baby girl… Her name is Mina (??), pronounced mee-na.
Unfortunately, almost no one in Nam’s family has the courage/skills to hold a baby, which means I am caring for Min and Nam while they take care of Max. Oh, well. Baby Mina is strong. Baby Mina likes being held. Baby Mina is already suckling. Daddy is going to upload a series of photos representing the first few hours with Mina via EDGE-enabled mobile phone, so it may take a while…
Last day alone
Pushing a 225 50 R17 (this set of mags was once on daddy’s Crown, but they scraped the wheelwells on even small bumps and made manual steering very heavy!).
Excited
I ran around doing errands all day after waking up fairly late – Nam got up early to do something and she’s off doing something again. I’d protest that it’s better for her to lay around and get rest, but everybody deals with this kind of stress in different ways. We are excited, and happy, and anxious.
Tomorrow is a big day.
The C-section is scheduled for 9 am. I plan to watch. Max will be with his babysitter, and later at grandma’s house with his aunt. I will be caregiver for a week or so, in between teaching what few classes I have this week (there are holidays on Monday and Thursday).
PE in full effect, brotha!
Washington post correction:
“A Nov. 26 article in the District edition of Local Living incorrectly said a Public Enemy song declared 9/11 a joke. The song refers to 911, the emergency phone number.”
Google Public DNS
I’m testing Google’s public DNS servers out. If your ISP’s DNS servers suck or you are just curious, you can try it out too: Configuring your network settings to use Google Public DNS

Note: They have the coolest IP addresses:

34 hours and counting
We are officially scheduled to arrive at the private hospital behind SermThai department store at 8:00 on Sunday morning. We went to check out everything in person tonight and take over some documents from Nam’s OBGYN. I have been informed that I can watch the caesarian if I so desire… I’m still thinking about that one.
A small mountain of luggage has been prepared for the few days to a week stay we are planning on; I’ll load it in the car tomorrow.
We went to the clinic today for a final checkup and it seems the baby may be a big one… If head size is any indication, perhaps even four kilograms!
We are in a unique state of being anxiously busy yet trying to relax…
dnb lives!
wow.
