One night last week, driving home from work...
Gwynne: [sitting in traffic]
Car Stereo: [blaring Exile on Main Street]
Hollywood Traffic: [lousy]
Awesome Idea for the Jo Book: [pops into Gwynne's head]
Gwynne: What?!? Is that idea as awesome as I think it is?
Awesome Idea for the Jo Book: [preens]
Gwynne: [scrambles for notepad and pen]
[takes notes at the stoplight]
Rolling Stones: "Soul survivor!"
Gwynne: [channels Young Frankenstein] It...could...work!!!
***
Today at lunchtime...
Gwynne: [writing new stuff for the Jo book]
I am really excited about this!
Awesome Idea for the Jo Book: Told you.
Gwynne: Um...why couldn't you have told me a little sooner? Like, a year ago maybe?
Awesome Idea for the Jo Book: Hey, it's not my fault if you're a little slow on the uptake!
