Let's Panic About Children!
We've said it before: children can be disgusting. But let's not put all the blame on them. They leave behind them a wake of trash, crust, and soiled linen, which is also disgusting.
In this video, Alice opens up her home to us, the Internet, so that we may reflect on what it means to live with a child. The highs, the lows, the joys, the sorrows, and the armpits.
(And then we can talk about the horrible things that come out of her cat.)

Throughout the years, many of my peers inquired as to how I produced such a talented, emotionally interesting writer of stage-tales. “What could Edwina have done,” they wondered, gazing in fascination as I swanned about town, “to so utterly complexify her child? Surely there are simple shortcuts I could take so that my child can be famous and adored and suicidal?”
But when they came around for a glass of sweet tea and to hear how I kept my boy off-kilter and confounded much of his young life, they blanched (pun intended!) and fled. Now, I mean no offense, but I am sincerely dubious that any of you stable, emotionally mature specimens reading this wouldn't have done the same. Raising a haunted, self-destructive play-wright is not the pretty little hobby it sounds like! Here’s a mere sampling of what my baby boy was protected from:
