This is going to be painful

... but it is necessary. Jess? This is primarily for you, but I think we all will find what I am about to post edifying, as well as scary.

It reminds me of that great quote from Catherine Aird:

If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.

Ha ha ha! I love it! She looks almost as crazy there as she does here.

She is the most awesome train wreck ever.

Strangely enough, I clicked on the wrong link and got Jess's blog which had a moving poem that started: "Our love is like a rainbow..."

You just KNOW you're going to be reading a great poem if it starts out like that. So I thought it was particularly mean of you to call Jess's work of art a "horrible warning"...

Yes, Jess and I devote our Fridays to self-mortification. Her "high school poetry" series is one of the highlights of my week. hahaha

I thought it was not only beautiful, but it also educational! Most poets do not bother to explain the mechanics of how the sun's refracted light through precipitation creates a rainbow.

Ha! JFH, you are killing me.

In my defense, I was 13 when I wrote that.
