Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There was a BBQ sauce fountain.

Huh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Um. Wow.

Seriously. There were little cubes of beef, mini hotdogs, and chunks of tofu to dip in the fountain.

Did I mention it was weird?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Actually, I can imagine, and I'm glad she can't give me her opinion in person, because I don't want to go to jail for murder.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Why would you do that when you could have a chocolate fountain?

That was brought up.

Repeatedly.

Hey, I can't deduct my moving expenses if I just moved cause I wanted to, right?

Because books.

For real. A chocolate fountain is something I can get behind. Or, more precisely, directly in front of.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You're in charge, Sean. I don't think she'd have anything negative to say about your choices. You, as the man, are due what you want. It's women who need children and who needs mates to facilitate that children thing who are being coy about the truths.

There's an argument to be made that the heady romantic love that's being peddled by Hallmark is not what long term relationships are best made of, but that's not really the argument she puts forth for very long. The point that you're not going to be drunk on your mate for fifty years isn't the same point as you'll need someone to distract the kid for twenty minutes so you can shovel lunch.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Why would you do that when you could have a chocolate fountain?

Because mini hot dogs taste better in BBQ sauce than in chocolate?

(I admit it; I'm kind of intrigued by a BBQ sauce fountain. Were there, by any chance, pictures?)
