Amy and P. are two of our favoritest people, straddling the line of being a grownup and “holy shit, I need to do something immature RIGHT NOW.” Amy’s chronicling her adventures [...]

The day after tax day, I have had my refund for two whole months. I don’t mention this aloud, except here. (We only did them early on the hopehopehopepleaseGodhope that we’d have a refund or two.

(Sleeping.)
RING! RING! The phone rings like the Last Trumpet’s Sounding, causing me to nearly hit the ceiling, I jumped so high.
BLC: Aghh! (Gets out of bed, runs to phone.) Hello? (In sexy, groggy, froggy voice.)
Brother of BH: Hello, Miss BLC! How are you today?
BLC: Oh … hi … Brother-in-law.
BroBH: Did I wake you? I’m sorry! [...]
