My Spectacular Betrayal

I was sitting at DK Donuts in Boise, Idaho, on a dreary November day, talking by phone to my therapist in London, where my husband was, and where I should have been too, if I hadn't fallen in love with another man and upended our world.It was a spectacular betrayal.I had been close with David's wife for years, as he had been with my husband.

Our Second Date Was Statistically Abnormal

Years later, I still told the undergraduate students in my research methods class the story of my first date with Corey to help them remember the concept of regression to the mean how something that is extreme on a first measurement will become less extreme, or regress to the mean, on a second measurement.

A DC Flower Shop Owner's Toughest Mother's Day

Holley Simmons opened her flower shop, She Loves Me, in the winter of 2019, but if there was a season she wasn't sure the business would make it, it was Mother's Day 2020, during the height of Covid.The shop, then with only one Petworth location (since replaced by two, in Eckington and Capitol Hill), was battling a lot of things: There were flower shortages; her primary sources of business-weddings, walk-ins, workshops-had come to a halt; and practically overnight, she had to start offering delivery, despite having no such system in place, least of all boxes or drivers.
