Waiting In Pangea

Janelle's due date was four days ago. We are now set firmly in the waiting days. It's like this: You know this awesome, life-changing event is going to happen. You know you're going to be there, involved in the happening when it happens. And you know that it could start happening any minute now. Okay, there. Go ahead and try doing or thinking about anything else.

And meanwhile, waves pound the sand. The sun rises and sets. Fortunes are made, lost. The corn stalks turn to brown eggshell and whisper plainsongs in the gale...
