Rabbit-hole rabbit-hole rabbit-hole rabbit-hole rabbit-hole. I’ve heard this said 100 times this week.

NEW RULE. You don’t get to use this metaphor unless a. You’re actually physically stuck in a rabbit-hole (then it’s not really not a metaphor, but still), or b. you know Alice.

Had a great time last week at the Cornerstone book launch party. Honored to be on stage with Calvin Mills (The Caged Man) and Barry Pearce (The Plan of Chicago), two great fiction writers.

Good morning!
Daylight Saving Time. For the same reason we say

Dog walking time.
Story telling time.
Beer drinking time.

Bonus if you hyphenate because it’s a compound adjective.

I like how Lyft sends along about-to-expire offers like I could miss out on a great deal to get the hell outta Dodge.

We now find ourselves mere moments away from pumpkin-spiced-everything season.

My son wanted to visit his friend at Taco Bell. No way, I said. You are now an athlete in training, and you will NOT eat Taco Bell.

So we got @culvers.com instead.
Unrelated, but not. Now that the order numbers at Culver’s extend beyond 99, I’m hoping they run to infinity.
