I was bummed that I realized I would need to give this to someone else
to do.

I tried talking to my wife about "Since I'm a PhD and not an MD, it's
not like I need to be there for the delivery" and the docs about "well
if we had the baby in Juneau, I could have a lot of the work done and
some automated scripts in place before it was time to go to the hospital."

I think it may be a very chilly dinner conversation tonight,
