  1. The increase in popularity of facial filters has made it easy for people to cosmeticize their look with little effort. It's terrifying.
  2. Thanks for reading along and, of course, commenting. These two have quite the journey ahead of them, mostly good and fun!

    She sure as shit doesn't highlight my work lol. "Eh, the chapter was meh, but his one line was AMAZING" *insert @kbois's contribution to the chapter*

    I'm also interested in how this story unfolds.

    That is not a question.

    I can totally see your point but like @scrubber6620 said earlier, it's less about who's right or wrong. I think if we step back, we can see that each failed in some way. Though, I personally side with Loren more than I side with Jay. Jay loves his family and wants to share it but in doing so, he's flaunting a very tender part of Loren's past. He did not tread lightly and it was painful. Now, it is unfortunate that Jay has to walk on eggshells, but sometimes we live in an uncomfortable place for the sake of the ones we love.

    Right or wrong aside, this is very much Loren. He is both a phoenix who has rebuilt himself from the ashes, while also being a neglected pound puppy that cowards when yelled at.

    Oh phew. It's hard to remember what's been written and what's to be told. It gets jumbled in my head sometimes.

    Holidays in general are a struggle for Loren. I'm not sure if he talked about it when he first told Jay about everything or if it's talked about in the future (in that case, I'm sorry for spoiling), but besides waking up Christmas morning with no family, holidays were always a source of emotional distress in that he was always on the outside of it while Lars wasn't. When he was able to decide to partake in holidays or not, he chose not to.

    Family does mean different things to different people. Jay views his family as perfect. Loren's nuclear family was a nuclear bomb. He rebuilt his family to look and work very differently. How does that get reconciled? Not just by Jay, but by Loren? Since chapter one, he's been afraid of the stereotypical perfect family (Jay's family.)

    Followed by: “My parents didn’t see the best in me and now it feels like you don’t either."

    Yes. I'm laughing. Jay is totally an overeager puppy and Loren is a feisty tom cat. When Jay jostles Loren too much, Loren whomps him on the nose real quick. I love it. Lars will unfold, albeit slowly.

    I don't see Loren letting him out of timeout early. That's not his style. Loren is hurt and he's going to need something genuine from Jay. This is no small hurdle.

    Loren does need a hug. Jay walking away from Loren, knowing he done screwed up.

    chapter seventeen loren “Cory brought lawn chairs to the Seahawks practice event. Don’t they have stands or like stadium seating?” I ask. Corey shakes his head as he grabs a couple of folding chairs from the back of his SUV and hands them out. I put my hand up and block the glaring sun. “How many windows does the building need?” Corey presses a lawn chair to my chest and waits for me to grab it. “It’s not so bad once we’re inside.” “Look at that.” I flip the camera
  17. Hey! You’re all caught up! Just in time for tomorrows posting.
  18. Yes, and now I've deleted the whole section where Loren potty trains Aidan because you said my word count is too high.
  19. You know how I feel about diggin' around and 'fact checking' things in Boss Nanny, yet here you go. You're about to join @kbois on my shit list.
  20. I've been waiting for someone to connect the .99 but no one did! Or maybe they did but just didn't comment. The comments are truly the highlight of each chapter. It's an added value, one for which I'm thankful that everyone is willing contribute.
  21. Funny enough, I also don't like football or influencers. There's several things that @kbois has had to correct me on (when it comes to football). It's been a challenge.
  22. You know that one chapter where that thing happens with Aidan? When Jay and Loren visit CO? Yeah...
  23. No, most people have such wonderful editors and Beta. I guess I just really hit the lottery... Me every time @kbois says "send it my way"
  24. It's fun. I'm excited for it.
