Jason lives a comfortable life. His business is successful. Both his children have wonderful futures ahead, and people think he’s pretty neat. There is just one thing Jason wishes he could get rid of -- his ex. When they meet for coffee, however, Jason realizes that after ten years, he wants Howard back. Luckily, Jason has a plan. For Howard, his life is as good as it gets. He’s raised two great children, and helped his ex build a business that provides Howard palimony. Unfortunately, his ex is also the ultimate Zen-wrecker, and no amount of deep breathing can get him out of Howard’s head. When Jason shows up broke and with a hair-brained scheme to get Howard back in his life, under the guise of celebrating the tenth anniversary of their divorce, Howard isn’t sure if he’s being insulted or wooed. But he reluctantly agrees to go back to work at the company, and to allow Jason to move back home. Can ten years heal old wounds? Have Jason and Howard ever stopped loving each other, or should they call it a day and just celebrate their “divorce-ary?” And in the end, who will be the real trickster -- Jason, Howard, or that marvel we call love?

The Divorceary

When Lorena announced that there was a Marjorie Plum on the line a little after three, Jason almost jumped out of his chair. Was she busting him, or was she calling to offer assistance again?


“How did your dinner go last night?” she asked.


“It was great. Thank you for the casserole. I don’t know what I would have done without it.”


“Well, if you were smart, you would have ordered food from the best restaurant you know that Howard was unfamiliar with and tried to pass their work off as your own. I did that a million times with Gene. It was easy for me though; Gene doesn’t like to eat out so I had many restaurants to choose from. You, on the other hand, would probably need to go into DC or Baltimore. Howard is pretty familiar with Three Rivers and all it has to offer.”


“Oh, I think he’s finding some new things out about it,” Jason said.
