Times Domestic Disturbances blogger Judith Warner is going on book leave. And we would love to make a joke about how she's run out of insights about the complexities of the upper middle class. But she already went there: "I am officially Out of Ideas." And it would be fun to mock how all of her friends are tired of giving her material for a column, but she beat us to that, too: "I spent a chunk of Wednesday ... hoping that someone would say or do something that I could turn into a column. But no one did ... for precisely that reason." So fine, Judy. Go on book leave. But when you come back, we'll be here to make fun of you. [NYT]
