Soooooo bored

We are at the hospital. Aliyah's water broke around 11:00 AM. Unexpectedly, we are sooooo bored. And hungry.

We've been here since 12:00. Now it's about 4:45. There's no clear test result that will say the constant trickle of liquid coming out of my wife is amniotic fluid. They were about to send us home, but when Aliyah stood up she splashed the floor. Our nurse asked us to wait. Now we're waiting to see if they will let Aliyah eat.

There's a "Law & Order" marathon on TNT. It's what we'd be watching if we were at home, but every time they say Lenny Brisco's name, the voice inside my head becomes Homer Simpson and says "Mmmmm.... brisket."
