it's 7am. i'm back on site for our self-imposed 36-hour movie filming. it's quiet. everyone who stayed must still be asleep. i should go make coffee but i never quite get the ratios right with the drip coffeemakers anymore. i'm used to the quiet, but it's a little odd when you know there are people around. i hear a car pulling into the drive. the house is beginning to stir. i'm off.

i'm surprised i've never used the phrase "midwife crisis" any earlier than three hours ago.
