Anthology: Allison Pearson.

A mother of a one-year-old boy is a movie star in a world without critics.

Why can't supermarkets designate a Working Mother Aisle where you can be served by surly superefficient androids?  Or French people.  The French would be perfect.

Do you know those moments -- the sheer merciful relief of there being someone in the world who knows what you're thinking as you think it?

People say that time is a great healer.  Which people?  What are they talking about?  I think some feelings you experience in your life are written in indelible ink and the best you can hope for is that they fade a little over the years.

The curve of life goes:  want to know, know, don't want to know.

Thanks for posting over on StopLights! It's always great to hear the great things happening in other lives in places unknown.

I love the above post...I read it several times just to get all the nuance. It was worth it.:)
