What are you planning to do this weekend? I sent Anton to an overnight camp in Vermont. It’s his first time! I’ve been thinking about him all the time and I hope he enjoys it. Can you give me some tips from an experienced parent to ease my nerves? I never went camping as a kid so everything is new to me. I hope you have a great weekend. Here are some links from around the web…

Also, tomorrow Please ask me anything Newsletter publication Big SaladI write about a lot of stuff, including how it felt to sleep with someone for the first time after my divorce. It’s paid for obvious reasons, but if you’re in the mood for some girl talk, it’s only $6 a month (and the whole archive too).
Additionally, there are three comments from readers.
Speaking of Erica Vuhrink’s outfit of the week, Kristen says, “I’m 5’11” and when I was in my teens and twenties I was hunched or squatted in every photo. Now that I have a tall daughter, I’ve decided to embrace my height. People always comment on me and my daughter’s height. Although I still resent having to make unsolicited comments from strangers, I’ve learned to respond to the ‘you’re tall’ question with a sincere ‘Thanks so much!’ as if it were a huge compliment. I don’t want my daughter to feel like she has a smaller place in the world.”
As for what makes her thirsty, Briana says, “Recently, my husband, who is usually very level-headed, left me three missed calls on his way to work. I was busy with the kids and worried it was an emergency, when I finally called back and he told me to run out to the garden because there was an amazing rainbow. We live in Ireland, where rainbows are common, but my husband doesn’t usually pay much attention to them, but he knows I love spotting them and was determined not to miss a good one. Now, after 15 years of being together, my husband, who is naturally not the most observant of all, points out to me with anxious, expectant eyes and says, ‘Look! Isn’t it beautiful?'”
As for what everyone’s reading/watching/listening to, Ally said, “I can’t wait for the Olympics. Anthony Edwards on the men’s basketball team is amazing. I can’t wait for Simone Biles, Suni Lee, Jordan Childs, the whole women’s team. And Katie Ledecky and Quincy Wilson (the track and field star, who’s only 16). Oh, I can’t wait.”
