A moment of intimacy in the elevator
In common with most of the global female population, I have shunned intimate contact with Milhous Vile. That situation has dramatically shifted this weekend. We are in Paris, but the change of my status from untouched to despoiled is nothing … Continue reading

Peggotty’s found Jesus!
I ate my toast this morning from a hand-painted Blue Ridge poinsettia plate and was glad for Christmas. My nails are painted a rather festive forest green but, on the warm-blooded, the polish turns turquoise blue indoors. Thank goodness I … Continue reading

Liam Neeson is the exception when it comes to Irishmen, for he is tall. Spud Hughes is more typical for he is–how shall I put it?–squat. I am the same size and shape myself, which has caused some problems at bedtime. … Continue reading
