Apparently there is a guy in India who is rolling (across India, a continent, the world - I don't know all the details) for peace. He rolls at a pace of 8 miles a day. Pretty impressive, but quite uncomfortable... Anyway, he ran into a little problem when he tried to cross over to Pakistan - the border patrol did not want to let him through because he did not have a passport. I guess you need your documents even if your mode of transportation is rolling over...

On a completely unrelated note - today (at a random store) I met another pregnant woman with the same due date as I (10/05). She has a friend with a due date 10/06. Apparently these are very common birth dates for babies (10/05 being the most 'popular' as she put it) in the US. About 40 weeks after the holidays and all...

Today our doctor predicted that our baby will be born on 10/09. He just looked at me when we were leaving his office and said that. I guess that's experience! 10/09 is the birthday of our friends' first baby, and that would be fine - easier to remember all the birthdays. It would also be fine if he were to be born on 09/29 which is my sister's second girl's birthday (she was born last year). This would keep the 'tradition' going since my husband's brother's baby girl was born this year on 06/03 which is my husband's birthday... But who knows...
