Conversations

Ali wrote her last blog entry on the subject of relationships—how it’s more than common to overhear people discussing the ups and downs of communication with significant or not-so-significant others.

Create Fate by Etan Frankel
Love can be a brutal game. When the deck is stacked against him, Nathan does the only thing he can to get the love of his life to notice him: he calls in the professionals. When is true love a product of fate, and when is it just a set of well-choreographed accidents?

i asked you if you wanted to play scrabble, or another boardgame, once when you were over for dinner but you said "no" and seemed offended. i think boardgames are for people with whom you can't talk about relationships. that's why they are a big family favorite.
