* I guess if you're a Daley cop with a side arm, you're comfortable doing that out in the open and in plain sight. I don't recommend it for anyone else, though.
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.

09 Happiness Challenge -- Day 10
Monday. Men. It's been so hot here that you may see cops patrolling the Millennium Park area while wearing shorts. And what a heavenly sight that can be. I saw a peace office perched on a ledge beside an ATM machine, organizing the cash in his wallet,* and his legs were the perfect shape and covered with just the right amount of wheat-colored leg hair. I'm glad I was wearing sunglasses so he couldn't tell I was ogling him and hoping for an evil doer to strike so I could watch my Dream Cop spring into action. Sigh. A definite day brightener.

This week's movie topic is all about weddings ...
My favorite wedding movies are:
The Philadelphia Story. Katharine Hepburn is forced to choose whether to walk down the aisle with a young James Stewart or a young (but let's face it, he was great at any age) Cary Grant. Oh yeah, and the sanctimonious geek she was engaged to.
My Best Friend's Wedding. I love Julia Roberts in this because she's not afraid to behave very, very badly -- unusual for an actress who has won acclaim as America's Sweetheart.
Honorable mentions -- Movies that had memorable wedding scenes but weren't about weddings:
The Godfather and The Sound of Music.
