Jan 4, 2010.
Akira and mom were finally checking out. Â I rushed to the hospital with an empty baby carriage, trying to look like a normal nanny – not that I could tell you what a normal ny nanny would look like. Â Pushing an empty baby carriage is a very strange sensation. Â I think I was overly self conscious. ( I have not attempted this maneuver since.)
Akira wasn’t ready yet. Â He was going in for light therapy for his jaundice … and then, he was going for his circumcision, to be performed by the midwife. Â Not sure if it was the other way around, or what – it was going to be at least a couple of hours, and I was headed out for some tequila therapy across the street.
And it was at the bar, that I saw the red man and thought of the little miracle across the street.
