I wanted to toss the document in his face and ask if he had a death wish. Instead, I astonished myself: I grinned.

The next day, I couldn’t help but chuckle as I re-read the absurd itinerary. If Jake believed he could deliver me a list of “improvements,” he was about to discover how much structure our lives could withstand.
