Last night.

The times we'll look back and laugh at: 

Car dropped off at mechanic, 110 degree weather. Preterm labor scare, Wife calling nurse's line, babies are fine. Husband walking a mile in suit and tie to meet a friend after riding rapid from downtown. Dehydrated husband with headache coming home and collapsing in bed at 8:30. A house that feels like it's 140 degrees inside, a broken ice machine, room temperature (aka near-boiling) drinking water, an emotional, pregnant Wife. Husband waking to kill 3 centipedes for Wife, brother-in-law needing weights in basement, Wife retrieving weights knocking over fan, breaking it. (Adjusted room temperature- 212 degrees). 11:30pm- Husband leaving to buy new fan, Wife has emotional breakdown. Wife killing 2 centipedes, one surviving smashing, another crawling out of hole. Husband returning with fan, taking pillow and making plans to sleep in driveway. Husband comforts Wife, Wife tells Husband to come back inside, fan turned on highest setting. 12:54pm- both fall asleep.
