These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Introducing Anna Nicole Simpson
Am I the only one who heard this? This morning -- more than once -- Court TV correspondent Jean Casarez referred to the corpse whose custody was being discussed in a Florida courtroom as "Anna Nicole Simpson." I don't know if her consistent slip was funny or appalling.
Anna Nicole Simpson would be the ultimate tabloid blonde, wouldn't she?
