My future husband is wondering why I'm "taking your crap"
when I'm excellent at standing up to his.

It’s nice, but, it’s weird not being in love, or maybe in love, sometimes in love.

I tell my doc I’m special, 1 in 1,000,000 special: unhitched, pushing 44, and knocked up. "Call Guinness," I joke, and fake jab his right arm. He puts his two hands over mine, smiles gently, like a father.
