another conversation.

jen and i really talk like this:

j: ed and i were watching rachel zoe last night and decided that you need a rodger.

a: i know! rachel zoe is such a b to him. i would treat him so much better.

j: they're going to break up you know. she's not going to give him the baby he wants.

a: i will. even though he kind of has justin bieber hair.

j: TOTALLY fixable. i bet rachel zoe makes him wear it like that anyway.

a: oh, yeah. definitely not a deal breaker. like, i wouldn't even bring it up to him.

j: i bet you could, though. he's nice enough.

a: do you think he's really jewish? or did rachel put him up to that. she made him read that poem at passover dinner.

j: i don't know if he is. i think he's jewish for rachel.

a: i mean, does he have conviction to any religion? could he be mormon?

j: i'm sure he could be. he seems pretty grounded.

a: but then, just think about it... i'd be married to a man named rodger.

j: i'd call him rodg.

a: that's kind of cute. rodg.

j: and we'd be kind of matchy matchy, because i'm married to an ed. rodg and ed.

and it continued like that for a long time.

i don't think we broke seriousness until i talked about how he'd have to park his car in the driveway of the townhome, because my car has first rights to the garage.

in the moment, it seemed very reasonable.
