If I am, then too bad because Zoot is having her baby today! At 12 noon CST, to be precise. Which I think equates to 10 am out here in the sticks. I am completely and totally stalking her updates… watching for news on Twitter (I’m actually sending her updates directly to my cell phone! Stalker!) and pictures on Flickr. I’m so excited, partially because I remember so well the last time she had a baby, and how I refreshed her page all day long looking for updates. It’s like we’ve come full circle or something.
Plus, I shared a room with her at BlogHer last year. And I saw how sad she was in the aftermath of her miscarriage. Having suffered my own kind of loss, I guess it’s natural to want to spare a friend from that.
She’s going from two to three, just like me! I’m so excited to see how it goes for her. I have a box of boy clothes coming her way (it has sat in Kile’s van, waiting for him to remember to take it to the post office) that I’m hoping will come in handy for their new bundle of blue.
So tell me this: am I nuts for being so excited about this baby? Because I am. Excited that is. Not nuts. At least, I hope I’m not nuts. Anyhow, go wish them luck and good wishes, if you have a moment. Congrats, Zoot family!

At least you know her, Marilyn. When I was still living in San Jose, my raido show DJ had a baby and I was so excited about it, the people I worked with thought it was a family member who had just given birth. I made my parents listen to the radio station and call me the minute the birth announcement was made. See, my behavior — kinda crazy. You, excited about someone you know having a baby — totally normal.

Hey there! I happened across your blog by doing a search for cloth diapers in Northern Nevada. Do you know of anywhere between WNMCA and Elko that sells cloth diapers? I may end up buying online - I just like feeling and seeing that kind of stuff first.
Thanks!
