Q: What’s red an white and glittery that smells like cigarette smoke and emerges for the public bathrooms of public parks?

Why, a bride and her wedding party of course! We saw them last Saturday, by the Field Museum. The bride was worried that her beautiful dress was dragging on the bathroom floor. I just got word that my little brother and his wife are having another baby, due this spring. The announcement, strangely enough, made me immediately want to have another baby… Yes, at 9 months pregnant, I wanted to join the race of perpetuating the race again when I’m not even finished running this one. I’m pretty sure it’s sick and twisted, and I’m not altogether sure that my competitive spirit hasn’t somehow become confused with complete malarkey.
