\"MarriageI love this story.<\/p>\n

I mean, it’s like someone dared her to put every single trope she could think of into less than 40 pages, and she made it perfect.<\/p>\n

I was attending a singles\u2019 convention for special people like me to find their forever penguin partner. But after I paid the attendance fee, got a hotel room, and booked my flight, I found out it was specifically for guys and gals.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I mean, it’s THE BEST.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d unbuttoned my shirt halfway before turning back to the egg. It was just sitting there. Obviously it couldn\u2019t see anything, but it felt weird. Two\u2019s a party; three\u2019s a crowd. I carefully turned the egg in its robe nest. <\/p>\n

That didn\u2019t do much. <\/p>\n

\u201cIs this the front or back?\u201d I mumbled absently. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s upside down,\u201d Wesley said. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat?\u201d I yelped, adjusting the egg again. After a beat, I just covered it completely with the robe. \u201cThere.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It was the perfect antidote to my bad brain day.<\/p>\n
