Dear Richard
I’m the last one of
nearly all my friends to settle down. As a result, most friends are in the
baby/toddler/teenager stage. Which is great, I’m really happy for all of them.
BUT . . . you knew this was
coming. When my friends were all falling into great partnerships, I got to
share their stories and excitement. Now? Everyone is too busy for me. I get it
— as much as I can from the outside — that kids take tons of energy. I know
this in my head. But there’s a huge part of me that is just GAH!
Do I address this
with them? Or just let it go? It feels petty but at the same time, I’d like it
if someone would return my call so I can share a sweet story!

Dear Lois,
Here’s a way to get your friends to listen to your sweet
story. Invite one of your friends over
with kids. Spend the weekend before
learning how to make an authentic Indian dish.
Then spend a good 10-14 hours on the dish, preferably Chicken Tikka
Massala.
(I had this one in Bangladesh while I was trying to break a
twenty to pay for a tranny hooker. It
was delicious.)
Once you and your guests have settled down to enjoy your
sumptuous meal, lay the news on them that you are moving away forever. When they ask to know why, tell them you have
a sweet story you wish to share first.
It’s the perfect opportunity to get your sweet story out there. Good luck!
