Baby Boom

Within the last week, two of my friends have told me that they are in the early stages of pregnancy. Their babies are due within days of each other. Very strange.

The performance went well last night. We have one more tomorrow. I have tonight off (thank goodness). It's no wonder my feet have been swelling with all of the standing. It all makes sense now.

As I sat behind the trombone section last night and a few feet from the timpani, I was unsure as to whether I was endangering my child or enriching her. Now that she can respond to loud noises, she was having one hell of a dance party during the concert. We'll see if she comes out with a penchant for Verdi.
