the most uncomfortably entertaining 10 minutes of your day

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

It’s the Season of the Freak Out at work. 2009 budgeting, two huge client events mere weeks away, all-day planning  meetings scheduled from 8 am until well into the night every day of next week…

But enough about my misery. It’s not terribly entertaining.  But Helen’s and Jacob’s misery; well, that’s a horse of a different color.

Pop yourself a nice big bowl of popcorn, get (un)comfortable and watch while Helen and Jacob explore every nook and cranny of their marriage with their counselor. The link will take you to one of four sessions currently available for your viewing pleasure.

please don’t tell my dad!

Not only did my best friend come by to read my post about the two of us up to no good whatsoever in high school. So did her mom. Her mother, who knows my parents. Really well.

Ha, ha, Mrs L., that was just a little creative writing. We never missed a class. Not in high school!  And certainly not in college!

But in the interest of full disclosure, earlier today your daughter and I were plotting a time when we can get together, and my first suggestion was “Well why don’t we pick a Friday when I can blow off work?” Old habits die hard.

I am 42 years old. And I am so busted.
