02/01/2006: "No Rest"
As was recently pointed out, there's no rest for the wicked.
The Girl: Mom, I just wanted to remind you that you said you'd paint the bathroom when you finished that book and since you turned it in yesterday...
Me: I've got some bad news for ya, Pete.
The Girl: What? Revisions?
Me: There is that and I have a novella due.
The Girl: When?
Me: Two weeks.
The Girl: Mom! Don't tell me you haven't started it!
Me: I have some pages.
The Girl: But this bathroom is getting on my nerves.
Me: What? You don't like the look with half the wallpaper ripped off? Come on, Baby. Maybe after the novella and the synopsis for that other book....

"Some men admit they avoid confrontation (about breaking up) because they’re afraid we’ll cry. Of course we’ll cry; we cry at Hallmark commercials. What they don’t understand is that we’re not crying because of them, we’re crying because now we have to get naked in front of someone else.”
