My birthday. The 40th year of my life. Picasso's birthday too, same day, different year. I look at the number and it seems impossible. How could I have gotten that old already? I used to think 40 was . . .

My staff thought I'd been kidnapped, or worse. The last time they saw me was when RG picked me up at my office for our first "let's do lunch" date. There is always tittering and speculation . . .

Has anyone ever died in a sauna? That was my first thought as I sat with my bare butt resting on a WAY too small towel. I was the only woman in the group this time. Sitting on the middle level of a 3 tiered . . .

I spoke to Robin this evening. It's the first time I've heard his voice since that "unpleasant" experience about 2 weeks ago. He had no clear point in mind when he called. It was just . . .

How do you know your teenage daughter loves you?

Got a notice in today's mail from the high school. My daughter is failing gym because she comes in unprepared. I wonder if her cavalier attutude towards school has anything to do with her counting . . .

He called me at the office. It was late on Friday and I knew he held out till the last minute, hoping I'd call him instead. I didn't so he felt compelled. When you've engaged in a love affair . . .

RG had his share of intimate female relationships just as I'd been gathering men friends. He got me to confess mine and he told me about his. Telling is one thing, but meeting the competition face . . .

Pete was making it nearly impossible for me to have contact with Erika. I was a bit taken aback by his need for revenge. Especially his tactic of using the daughter we both loved as a weapon. She, not . . .
