PISTACHIO LUST.......WHAT THE HELL?!
I got a pistachio malt and headed to the “Slab”……a local area where the river is wide, shallow and rushes over rock formations that create a playground of small and medium-sized pools and rapids….more babies have been conceived here than in bedrooms in the area. I always carry a canvas chair,...

TREEHOUSE ON THE GROUND.......A CHILDHOOD REMEMBRANCE
There were two massive trees behind the rent house in Elysian Fields….the one we moved into when I was almost four and left when I was almost nine. They were way back in the yard and the root of one stretched across to the other….I guess they were related….I don’t really know about trees, just love...

CHARM
Charms on a bracelet around my wrist….over 40 years…charms on a bracelet. They’ve told the story of my life, woven with rings, welded to that chain…dangling….

TOUCH...........AND TRUST
He isn’t a man I know at all, never met him until I walked into the waiting area; Ten minutes later, I was completely naked on a table, under a sheet…before him. It wasn’t just a massage from a male massage therapist….I’ve had those before; And I’ve usually been in the nude…and in a nice room with...

A nun was sitting with her Mother Superior chatting. "I used some horrible language this week, and I feel absolutely terrible about it". "When did you use this awful language?" asks the Mother Superior. "Well, I was golfing and hit an incredible drive that looked like it was going to go over 280...

WHY I DANCE
When I was a little girl and had my tonsils removed, Mama took me to the drugstore and let me pick out any coloring book I wanted as a treat while I recovered. I picked out one that had Debbie Reynolds in all these ballerina costumes. I wanted to be a dancer from the gitgo and I took lessons for...
