It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Viognier is perfect for Indian IMO.

Coolness, I'll bring that. And my nommy nommy millionaire bars, so I don't eat them all myself this weekend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

if it were like his books, he'd find him torn up in the trunk of a car at Logan airport.

Aw, poor Tessa! Weirdly, apparently he's currently working on a script about a pet (which now I forget the rest of the details).

Suzi,

it might take you 5-10 minutes, but 1) it might take your coworker much longer; 2) he probably hates doing it.

You are probably saving him a lot of time and cusswords.

QVC? Huh. I will keep that in mind if the trawling through eBay doesn't turn up anything.

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

My sister has the naive belief she rocked it harder than I was going to do. Nuh-huh. (She gave me my style props when we went out in JA, though)

Why are wedding pictures so great?? I don't even know those people!

I think I need to read this distance swimmer's books: [link] Heard an interview with her on The Story (about her encounter at 17 with a baby gray whale) and then went and read some other articles by her. Um, yes. When Oliver Sacks and Temple Grandin are writing stellar reviews....

While I have no driving desire to beat records or swim in Antarctic waters, she speaks my language when it comes to the water.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I heard an interview with her a while back. She was fascinating, and I have no particular interest in swimming. So, probably even more fascinating to someone ho can relate to some of what she's talking about.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

ita, your sister does look great in those pictures. Also, I love the trend of candy tables at weddings.

Lynne Cox's book is good, but I don't think she does such a fab job capturing her experiences. What makes the book is the experiences she had, not her ability to recount it as a writer.
