“Yeah, John really supports me during marching band season.” Bullshit. Unless by “supports me” you mean “complains to our friends about our nonexistent sex life“. When have we ever seen John lift a finger to “support” her, during marching band season or any other time?

Feels Like Christmas, Smells Like Pepperoni
Baby Skyler‘s freakishly rapid development continues apace. He’s about twice the size of most four weeks-olds, and sits erect, holds his head up, and can point at things.
