The coalescence of a pair of black holes is quite likely going to be the first astrophysical source observed by the new generation of gravitational-wave observatories currently being constructed. And yet, even today, we do not have a quantitative understanding of what the merger waveforms from such a coalescence will look like. A great deal of effort is going into numerical modeling of these events. A necessary first step is to construct and fully understand the initial conditions for binary black hole numerical simulations. Here, I will describe recent work on understanding the initial data for black holes with spins either parallel or antiparallel to the orbital angular momentum of the binary system.
