So I already told you that our holiday trip started off badly. Our new flight was rescheduled to leave on the morning of Christmas Eve at 6:20 a.m. We packed until the wee hours of the morning, and then collapsed for a brief rest.
We had to be extra-careful not to forget anything, since [...]
“Honey, wake up! Aren’t we going to make brunch for your family today?”
Grunts emanate from the enormous tangle of covers on the bed.

So you may have seen the other day that I was wounded while being a doting girlfriend. Needless to say I milked it for all it’s worth, (hey no one ever called me stupid! At least not to my face.) Anyway, I waved my sore finger around until even my snarky boyfriend felt a WEE [...]
