| the times they are a-changin' |
#41: because she appreciates (and has adopted) so many of the sibling sillinesses (siblinesses?) bryan and i have made up, including, but not limited to: the qode, the states-contest, bluebell.com, newsradio, and time-travelin'.
(author's note: alternate titles considered included "the battle for straight time," "time travel is lonely," and particularly "time of the season.") |

| your mother should know |
#42: because she loves my family, and because i love hers.
(my all-time favorite april fool's day joke: filling an empty advil bottle with orange reese's pieces, pretending to have a terrible headache, and then downing the entire bottle in one gulp in front of someone else. it works, and it's glorious.) |
