JESSICA: My preparation for motherhood began with hiking. LUKE: And where did your preparation for hiking begin?

Nursery-rhyme morality has gotten me into no end of trouble, largely because it is presented through such fine poetry.

If you had die, I would have killed you. ↗

I can’t stay. I have to go train for a while. You can come with me if you want.” He kisses my nose as I laugh up at him. “Honey, I don’t run. If you ever see me running, you’d better start running too ‘cause that means that something is chasing me. ↗

I hate Risk. I have for many years now. I hate that you still like Risk. I hate that you guilt me into playing with you because no one else will. I hate that you do the accents of the countries you’re attacking from. And I hate that you wear a beret every time we play. God, do I hate the beret. ↗
