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.
You met my spiritual fiancé and did not die and go to heaven right then and there??
ReplyDeleteHow did he smell? Did you touch him?
I'm too scared to meet him, because I undoubtedly would make a complete arse of myself. And probably get arrested while doing it.
Skinny dipping is okay if you are (a) inebriated, (b) with other people who are inebriated, and (c) you are with other people who are inebriated and do not have any kind of photographic equipment with them. And make sure one of the others is a really cute boy, because it could make for a good opportunity to size things up, as it were.
Gal-
