Well, a week's past and my wife is on the road to recovery, and the baby's doing
great.  I, on the other hand, am a nervous wreck, can't sleep, and am starting
to worry about paying for college for the little nipper :o)

While bringing my wife and son home from the hospital last Thursday, I just
happened to look down at the speedometer and notice that my bus had passed 100k
without me noticing.  I had this great sadness and guilt wash over me - like I
forgot to remember Mother's Day, or something.  So I took Phred out Saturday and
treated him to a wash and hand wax - trying to make amends.  At lunch time
today, I went out to the bus to run a few errands, opened the drivers door, and
- swoosh! - out comes this splash of water.  It came from the footwell, where
the little step up is.  It's the first I've noticed it probably because we're
having the first real rain in something like a month up here.  I mean, it's
really nothing major - not like seeing your heads leak, or anything - but
disconcerting none-the-less.  I looked under the dash to see if there was a
trail from the windshield, but nothing looks wet.  Any suggestions?
