Bad habits are hard to break. Cracking chewing gum drives me crazy like someone scratching a chalkboard (the birth of dry markers in classrooms?). Throwing cigarette butts from the car instead of putting them in the ash try! (How would litterers feel if someone threw used toilet paper inside their cars?) Bad talent who […]

Sweaty hands? Feel the pressure? When I was younger, I used to sweat at the drop of a hat. In high school, I was in a show choir, “The Top 20.” One dreaded night just before a performance, I ripped my pants in a bad place, but in Ethel Merman style, the show must […]

David Sedaris is-um-an interesting author. I was able to read 1.25 of his books (I read about a fourth of his second book, and that was enough). But the first book I read was hilarious-and shocking. When Sedaris was in Charlottesville for a reading, I brought my book for him to autograph. Personally, I […]

Louis Armstrong beautifully sang, “And I think to myself, What a wonderful world.” Joan Jett wore tight black leather pants and strummed, “I love rock and roll.” Nat King Cole sang the classic song, “L-O-V-E,” which I might add I do a great rendition of on karaoke. Captain and Tennille won a Grammy for, “Love […]

The Color Purple is one of my favorite books and movies of all time. In the movie, I was introduced to Whoopi Goldberg and someone you probably have heard of: Oprah Winfrey. Whew! She was a tornado of strength and emotions.
During the announcement of “Best Female Actress in a Supporting Role” at the Oscars, I […]
I just went to a wedding, and the maid-of-honor gave some good advice to the new groom. “Henry,” she said, “all of you have to do to remember your anniversary date is forget it once.
“When a man and woman get married,” she continued, “he thinks, ‘I hope she never changes.’ She thinks, ‘I can’t […]
I would never survive in jail. When I was a UVA fellow, I interviewed at the local jail for a moonlighting position. I suddenly related to my mother’s experience as medical resident in NYC when she had to help at the local lock-up. Whooping, hollering (unlike Gwen Stefani, who ain’t no Hollaback Girl), and name-calling– […]
There are many different types of death. Death of a family member or friend. Death of an era. Death of a Salesman. Death Becomes Her. Death Leppard?
But what happens in a relationship/marriage when there is Bed Death? When I was child, I was watching some TV show (surprise, surprise)¬ I think the Waltons or […]
Dr. Christopher Winter came for lunch and told us about all sorts of sleeping problems. He said his office lobby is filled with patients who are snoring, bobbing their heads up and down– struggling to stay awake, drooping eyes red as Darth Maul’s. Hmm, sounds like my dinner parties. Maybe he should play techno dance […]

How do you read this advertisement? “It’s All About ME”
One of my best friends says this all the time, and so when he showed me this ad, I thought it was all about– him. However, it’s a vacation ad for Maine (ME).
In the show Medium, the psychic heroine keeps getting a message from […]
