At one point, Anne Hathaway and James Franco were talking about how it was a great year for lesbians, and for some reason, they brought up Toy Story 3, and one of them was like, "Where's the dad?"

There are more important things, Jennifer Davis always tells herself, than having a man about the house. Of course, it isn't exactly that great being a widowed single Mom, and she misses Andy and Molly's father, her childhood sweetheart, quite terribly. They were married fresh out of high school, she found herself pregnant before she even got to college, and -- as they say -- the rest is history

And when the discussion gets off-topic at the fitness classes she goes to on Mondays and Thursdays -- as it quite often does, because sitting in a circle and doing the stretches is actually a fantastic time to gossip -- the other women (and one man whom they all love so dearly they can't bear to send him away, and beside he dates one of the fitness instructors here) sigh and add their complaints if they're single, or just nod and say that they remember those days if they're taken. And then someone makes a crack about having been faithful to her lover for twenty years and not regretting a bit of it, someone asks his name, and the answer of 'Rabbit. Rampant Rabbit.' has them all in tucks until the teacher manages to get them to calm down again and get to doing the sit-ups they're supposed to, which don't leave you with enough breath to talk anyway

I started this at the beginning of the week but haven't been able to get on a computer since. You've already got an awesome fill, but here's another tiny one.

"It's a school night, so Molly had better be in bed at nine. Supper is in the fridge. I should be back by eleven. If you ever need to call, my number is on the fridge."
"We both have your number memorized, mom." It was amazing her daughter could hear anything with those earbuds in.
"I almost got it," Andy mumbled behind her. The clasp of the necklace clicked into place. "Aha!"
"Thanks hon," she turned to ruffle his hair, and for the first time she noticed herself looking up to do it.
"So," her voice was a little breathier than normal as she smoothed down the hem of her dress. It had been too long since she had nervous butterflies. "How do I look?"

I second this, and if no one else claims this, I may give this a shot.

"You'll knock her dead, mom."
