Nice day today. Met my daughter in law and her little girl for coffee and talk and more talk at Starbucks. Turns out she is my closest friend. Can also talk about anything. She's Khmer smart and kind and exceedingly patient with this barang.
Until high school, Kate Feiffer believed that her mother Judy's novel, "A Hot Property," was about real estate. Then a boyfriend plucked the book from the shelves, started reading passages aloud, and revealed it was a piece of 1970s erotica. From then until just a few years ago, Kate considered "A Hot Property" to be her literary Waterloo — the book she'd hoped to conquer but never been able to. But after her mother's death, she picked up the novel and — between bouts of screaming and cringing — found something more thoughtful and reflective than she was expecting. Here's what she wrote for LitHub.
Kinda fodder. But in my family suites are more typical. Our houses are massive. Ours really isn't because it's only a 3 bedroom. But everyone gets TWO rooms for themselves. A bedroom and a workspace. We place a HUGE value on free creativity. Right now I'm shitting in high cotton because I have my lab, bedroom AND private bathroom which is the ideal. And it's all separate. My nephew has a playroom and bedroom. Nobody comes into your suite. #family#news#kids https://www.theatlantic.com/family/archive/2024/05/children-home-solo-bedroom/678354/
