then there was a short break in the action.

tuesday, 6pm-ish. im going down in an elevator in my office building. three ladies get in on 26.

one says to the other, 'so when are you due?'

this one, who looks to be in her late thirties/early forties, and who does not look particularly pregnant, says, 'june.'

the first lady says, 'are you gearin up for the sleepless nights?'

'oh yeah.'

'is this your first?'

'no. i have a twenty-year old.'
