All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Allyson, you're a brilliant, witty writer and this book will kick ass!

We had a fire on the back patio tonight and it was awesome. I love the end of summer with the clear, cool nights.

Oh, no! We built a fire. In our fire pit. It was completely controlled. We even toasted marshmallows.

Whew. I was thinking this was Incident Two after the lake incident.

Nope, thankfully. The kids are VERY well behaved around fire. It's scarier than water, I guess. They went to bed still sticky from the marshmallows. I love holiday weekends.

“Not dead yet!”

yes, from memory, why do you ask?

And this is why we get along so very well.

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

Sexting is a dumb word. And a dumb idea. A phone is not a secure enough repository for things that risqué.

This post was brought to you by nothing in particular, but while we're here, please get off my lawn.

Please get off my lawn is my theme tonight.

Also, why did I get sucked into watching Mr. and Mrs. Smith on FX?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Also, why did I get sucked into watching Mr. and Mrs. Smith on FX?

Because there are some totally amusing moments and the rest is filled with pretty people?

I have to admit, I know it's 100% safe, but it still felt disconcerting to watch the sharks swim by my kid.

They could be land sharks though. YOU DON'T KNOW. Okay, no, you probably do know. It's my silly hindbrain that doesn't and fears sharks in fresh water and on land.
