Just got this email from my mom:

Hi Everyone,
I'm still at work, trying to work, but I just got a text from Steve at 12:45 that Tiff's in labor, 4 cm dilated and on her way to be admitted! Steve's birthday is today too, how amazing is that? I'll fill you in as I get info. It's lousy reception at the hospital.

Hooray! The Writers Guild of America voted by a 92.5% margin to go back to work yesterday. Their contract hasn't been ratified yet, but there's a tentative agreement in place that, from all accounts, seems mostly fair and addresses a lot of points the WGA wanted to improve, and were also told they would never get ( Read more... )
