Or is it kleenexes?
Kleenices?
Tissues.
Well whatever it is, I need ‘em. And you might, too.

I just wanted to say a bloggy thank you to two old friends who rescued me on the two major holidays this season: to Marion (friend of 43 years) who changed her plans to come [...]
No, no, it’s not what you’re thinking —
– if this perchance is what you’re imagining:
All the men I’ve met on jdate over the past 18 months crowd into the little room at the doctor’s and keep me company during this ritual of middle age, the colonoscopy. They want to know [...]
SO MIMI –
Yeeesssssssssss??
HOW ARE YOU DOING?
So well that I’m mystified. Why am I relieved that I don’t have to see Performer again, that it’s all over, when a week ago today I would have said I loved him? Dating Trooper (in a comment to the previous post) asked me why I felt [...]
Well, I have a richly detailed post comparing the breakups with Rolly and with Performer ready to roll, but I thought I’d lighten up a bit and get you up-to-date on my renewed social life before returning to the juicy stuff in the next post.

Okay, so, I rejoined [...]
This will be the second and final post with this title; I have lots more to say on other (but related) subjects. (For background, see first post on this ever-fascinating subject.)

On our last Christmas together — wait a sec, it was hardly ‘our,’ because we didn’t experience it the same way — and we never had, over the previous 23 years — and it wasn’t really ‘Christmas,’ because we’re both Jewish, though I was brought up with Christmas, and he’s now posing pompously [...]
First a word on my new heading: it’s a picture taken by me with my new Canon PowerShot A550 (my first digital camera; I’m the last person on the planet to get one — even the natives of the rainforest have had digital cameras for years), looking northeast from Belvedere Castle in Central Park sometime [...]
A year ago today (Sunday 10 December 2006) I was in Immanuel Lutheran Church at 88th and Lexington listening to the New Amsterdam Singers performing their wonderful Christmas Concert.
I was with Rolly; we were sitting on the right side of the center aisle, about the sixth row from the front, probably the third and fourth [...]
