Fear of Flying: and I Don't mean in the Erica Jong WayFebruary 18th 2007 07:23
I am a successful woman who through hard work and perseverance and with the help of a wonderful staff and supportive friends and family has built up a successful mental health clinic. I have flown in commercial airplanes as well as private jets my whole life. I travel frequently due to lecture and book promotion efforts. Because of events that occurred in young adulthood and then events post 9-11, I am at best ... a "wiggly" flyer.
Flying is generally considered to be one of the safest forms of public transportation currently available in the United States. Statistics compiled by the Department of Transportation have led to the claim that airline travel is safer than driving an automobile
Tattooed YouFebruary 16th 2007 23:46
I adore my hair stylist. She is a dryer toting cowgirl adorned with twenty plus tattoos and over thirty piercings all over her 5'3" body. She chats me up during every appointment discussing everything from broadway music, softball, her annoying friends, to her family. One thing I really admire about her is the absolute devotion she has towards her mother. She updates me regularly about her mother's health as she is currently ending a third round of chemotherapy treatments for stage three breast cancer . A double mastectomy will be performed at the end of the month. We began to talk about the physical as well as emotional scars this procedure will leave.
When I returned home, I came across the reference in a book to a woman who had received a mastectomy, and gotten a tattoo, a very lovely crane to go along the scar of the mastectomy surgery. I was thinking that this would be an incredible transformative way to deal with very traumatic situation. In best of circumstances, tattooing can be a powerful symbol of triumph and survival when done on or around scars. Tattoos and scars are external marks of our life experiences. For many women, the experience of transforming her scar into beautiful art is an empowering and affirming experience
No Dates Just DancingFebruary 7th 2007 11:52
Prince's performance spawned a flurry of discussions with Wandering friends regarding the club scene in the early eighties. We were reminiscing about where we would go, how we would dress, and what a typical evening was like.
In Dallas, I frequented Starck Club, Tango, and Popscicle Toes. These clubs were places to see and be seen. They were definitely "beautiful people" clubs. I would go with my drop dead gorgeous friends who would literally "part the seas" upon their arrival. I learned at the club about the female hierarchy being friends with these girls. Girls generally know how hot they are on a relative basis. At the club when women met my friends, a look passed between them that communicated who was dominant and who was submissive based on the self-assessment each made. Who was above whom in the Hierarchy was normally clear cut. Problems arose when a woman asserted her claim to a higher position than that of which she was worthy. Fortunately, I always knew my place, so I was at least approachable and never lacked for dance partners
Don't Bogart Your Birthday ManJanuary 8th 2007 05:33
Elvis: Bro you ended your life toiletside after years of drug use. It is time to give it up to the throngs of the living who continue to celebrate their birthdays on this auspicious day (don't mean to offend the millions of hard core fans that are paying tribute to his life....I have been to Graceland...I have seen you guys!) One such rock star who should be honored is my wandering college friend. I wish for her the best birthday ever!
 Elvis ...the handsome years
