Random Traffic Through Nick's Brain

1. One’s water breaking apparently isn’t as big a deal as I thought it was.
2. The Swiss are much more laissez-faire about almost everything.
3. After the mid-wife and doctor checked Dina out and noted that other than the “water breaking” thing, she wasn’t in any imminent danger of giving birth, we got bored and went for a walk in the woods near the clinic. Told you they were laissez-faire.
4. Everyone has their breaking point… as many of you know, Dina insists on reading anything and everything before signing something (there’s always been a chicken-and-egg question about her going to law school). When it came time to signing the release for the epidural, Dina didn’t bother even *glancing* at the print. Just found the line and signed it. And no, that’s not just because the form was in German… she’s tried to read those in the past too.
5. Odd the things you learn when you chit-chat with people. The anaesthesiologist is one of VPRT’s clients.

Other semi-related notes:

1. English: The bill. German: Die Rechnung. Swiss German: D’Rachnig. No wonder we don’t understand the language.
2. We were supposed to have people over for supper on Wednesday or Thursday. We chose Thursday. Wrong.
