I have to listen! I have heard not one single bad review of the audio version and I’d really like to enjoy that story one more time and pick up all the breadcrumb clues Patchett leaves early on.

I am so glad someone is finally acknowledging how Mercury Retrograde is sowing chaos. While my official position is "I do not believe in astrology", let it be known that I absolutely acknowledge Mercury Retrograde is going to be a whole *thing*. Within 24 hours of it starting, I had cracked my windshield, broken my cell phone screen, left my credit card at Applebees and smudged my once a year fancy pedicure. I also had a random, starving, pregnant cat show up at work that I guess I now own. I feel like a complete space cadet this month. The struggle is real!

I am with you! Most days, I act casual like my horoscope is this fun thing I read but I know that retrogrades mean business!

Someone with the same name as my real life c-suite boss subscribed to this newsletter. Cue frantic researching to triple confirm it is not the same person --- I would literally die of terror!!!!

I did! The immediacy with which I went full FBI to investigate the coincidence!

My kids go back after Labor Day, too! I’m going to check out your shopping list, as I feel a little unprepared! Also, I’m here for all the woo!

No kidding! I’ve noticed the further south, the earlier the kiddos go back! Our school year runs through mid June. Do your kids get out of school earlier in the spring as well?

Yep! They’re done early/mid May!
