Several Plots Thicken...

Tragically, Black White Doggie has been discontinued. I'm hoping one (or two even) can be found on a shelf somewhere.

On other fronts, Slate has published a couple of intriguing pieces, one, presumably in honor of Father's Day, is about how pregnancy brings on certain shifts in fathers' bodies and brain chemistries. Intriguing, indeed! Since I'm still rather acutely aware of the way in which my person is trying to get back to something that feels familiar, my sympathies are selfishly with the maternal side of things, but I find this quite interesting.

Perhaps also in honor of Father's Day, Emily Bazelon has a slide show on the history of the Jewish mother-- because it is easier to appreciate one parent if you remember how annoying the other can be.
