This evening my friend John and I went out to celebrate his birthday. We had drinks at his place and he seemed to really like his gift -- The TCM Natalie Wood Collection. (We love Nat.) Then we went to the Fireplace Inn for dinner and ate way too much heavy food. But it was so good!
We wandered around the old neighborhood for a bit. John has lived there for nearly 30 years, so we have seen a lot of changes together.
Then I hopped in a cab, made the 9:40 train and was in the front door by 10:00. Has it been that long since 10:00 was when we were just getting started?
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.
That is the question, isn't it? I don't mind, terribly, the shift in my time perspective. Although it has been awfully fun to stay up late during summer vacation.
