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.

Heartbreak!
I admit that when I went to bed last night, I was desperately disappointed with Cubs ace Ted Lilly. He simply wasn't very good, and in the play-offs, no one can afford to have an off night. In a single inning, he gave up 4 runs and that's just not acceptable.
But then, this morning, I saw this photo. Look at the pain etched in his face. I no longer have the heart to be upset with him. Not when fate has sentenced him to reliving that inning for the next 50 years or so.
