I keep forgetting to post the email I got recently. The "Chris" she mentions is Christopher, the owner of the Cafe at which I used to run the spoken-word night:

Hey Serene!

My name is Rachelle and Chris from Nomad Cafe gave me your contact information. 'm one of the casting producers for ABC TV's Wife Swap, a prime time family reality TV show and I am hoping to cast a family who performs spoken word and/ or slams.

I'm wondering if you (a) have kids and (b) would like to be considered if so. Marriage is not a show requirement. If this doesn't sound interesting, I'm wondering if you might be willing to suggest a family for our show.

Thanks,


I am very amused. No, I didn't respond.

Well, what's the average family size . . . 5 people? (I'm guessing, I have no idea.) So maybe the Duggars (http://www.duggarfamily.com/) qualify as a plus-size family.

Holy shit! That's twice as many as my brother and his wife have, but they've only been married half as long, so they're on track, I guess.

Heh, that's who they'd pair us up with! Lol!
