I didn’t intend to make this feature so regular but with going on vacation and coming back and having a breakdown that started when we landed in Seattle and I burst into tears on the plane and humiliated myself, I haven’t been able to do much of anything other than fall in love with Brooke Elliott from Drop Dead Diva and cry in the bathroom at Red Robin during our family Mother’s Day celebration.  I told Leah that my goal for the next six months is to have one family …

I have reached into the chat archives for a 3-way chat Janie, Carrie and I had one night at the beginning of the year.  We’d all suffered a long, hard week and were kind of, maybe, a little bit wasted tipsy.
