"Hey, it slipped my mind. What can I say?"

[Auntie Anxiety]

Reminder: Joanne loves her sons more than anything. 

[Pepper Mostly]

Joanne's ex will not let his kids decamp for Ireland, take that to the bank. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Hahahaha, she actually SAID it!!!

The younger son can’t keep a straight face. This must have been the third take of this scene.

[Shelbie]

Are the boys legally allowed to just move to Ireland ? Wouldn’t they need visas ?

[Gobi]

I've been googling "Annoying woman falls off cross channel ferry. Passengers and crew deny noticing." No luck so far.

[Pepper Mostly]

What a selfish cow. Her little guy is what, 10 or 11? He is breaking my mother's heart into little tiny pieces. 

[Bees52]

You get the impression Joanne and Sean didn't think this whole secret marriage & reveal time thing out?

Nor should he. I go for full custody if I were him.

Curiously, James looks just as bad in a real shirt as he looks in his tank top.

[Pepper Mostly]

Tata's hiding her emotions. She's so stoic. 

[Gobi]

His dreams of a banana chip empire are dashed to the ground.

For a few minutes. Tears in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

[Pepper Mostly]

James, how can you justify bringing a dog into this crazy world? 

He lied about the dog too, right? That little beast is still chillin' in Maine. 

[MagicEyes]

I get a very father & child vibe from these two.

I haven't, though truth be told I don't read novels that much. Non fiction is more my jam, though of course there are exceptions, like Kate Atkinson! Its so disappointing when you find a new writer and they can't keep up the momentum. Or something gets great reviews and it turns out to be dog. I tried one of the Three Pines books because I heard so much great stuff about them, and it was the worst *********** I ever endured. I had to read it through because I was on the bus and had nothing else, but my god. And do NOT get me started on anything set in Salem. Every single one I've tried I hurled across the room before I hit 100 pages. I do like a good mystery but in my experience they are thin on the ground! I do love British books like Angela Thirkell's Barseshire series, and D. E. Stevenson. And I like Indian writers, A Suitable Boy is probably my favorite book ever. 

The Three Pines books were good in the very beginning but then they got worse and then very bad.

[Auntie Anxiety]

James loves being a dog dad. Having children would pale in comparison.

[Pepper Mostly]

Oh cheer up Tata. You still have your husband, that handsome, capable, assured, wise, loving, able man. Oh wait.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Corona thought she was going to an S&M meeting.

[Shelbie]

Tata could probably make a lot of money giving classes on how to cry to maximize your manipulation of people.

[Red Bridey]

Good evening, everyone! I'm drinking wine and wondering who, other than the two Olympians and the felon, are the so-called "stars" we're dancing with .

I tried the first one and I found it so horrifically bad I was actually emitting strangled squawking sounds on the bus as I struggled through it. It was AWFUL. That woman whose character building detail was that she was such a sloppy eater she'd get food in her hair? Jesus. And I figured out who the murderer was by about page 40. The only other thing I ever read to the end (again, stuck on the bus) was Spare Keys by Jane Smiley. Jesus, what a slab of shit THAT was. I was all "Jesus, these people are so unlikeable, no wonder they're getting murdered. There's probably a line of potential murderers begging for a shot at them".

One of them (Julian Edelman) was a New England Patriot who made one of the most miraculous catches the Super Bowl has ever seen. 

[sainte-chapelle]

Hey all, totally forgot this was on

[Gobi]

The surprise is they're going to pick up some viagra.

[Auntie Anxiety]

If Josh gave her his Limited Edition Luke Skywalker action figure, Lily would definitely feel loved.

That's why I stopped watching--I don't know who any of the "stars" are. That and the inspiration porn. Though Nyle DeMarco! Rowr!

Well, that might just prepare him for one of those "Dirty Dancing" catches.

[Auntie Anxiety]

We’ve seen dancing lesson dates before. They never turn out well.

I do tend to enjoy the football players. Remember when Doug Flutie was on? Jesus, he was terrible! Usually the footballers are pretty good. 

[sainte-chapelle]

@Pepper Mostlyhave you tried the Shardlake series? I thought all the books were fantastic.

It’s actually called Duplicate Keys. I just looked it up. I read it years ago because it actually took place on our Upper West Side Block. I remember liking it for that reason 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Corona, not only are the midwife classes taught in Icelandic, your clients may speak only Icelandic. I guess she didn’t think this through.

That's right, even as I was typing Spare Keys I knew it was wrong! 

I read Jane Smiley's book Moo and loved it. Every other thing that I've picked up by her has been a DOG. 

[MagicEyes]

I want to know how much luggage Corona really brought with her. She has an unlimited supply of new clothes. And bondage accessories. 

[Bees52]

Whaa? Josh, Mr. I Just Want to Sleep, has planned an event for Lily?!! Wow....

 

Hey! Corona found other Black people in Iceland? Nice.

Yes, James and his family are Mainers. Tata fled back to Indonesia because she hates the cold. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Corona couldn’t stand the possibility of being invisible.

She wrote two novellas in the 80s I really liked (at least at the time). I could not stand her megapopular Thousand Acres. 

[Shelbie]

Corona looks bizarre and idiotic in her outfit. The other people look normal.

They turned one or two of the books into a series on Disney + (I think). The author unfortunately recently passed away (CJ Samson) but it is a series of historical mystery fiction set in Tudor England. Very well researched, rich characters, very engrossing.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Hahaha, Corona, from one Ivy Leaguer to another, the diploma doesn’t amount to shit. No one is impressed anymore.

Me either! I read the entire tome because I was waiting for big payoff. There WAS no big payoff. Just read King Lear instead.
