Come Little Children, I'll Take Thee Away

With Each Of The Men I Dated, Everything Ran Its Natural Course, Whether It Worked Out Or Not. I Never Felt Burnt By Any Of Them. I Don't Feel Resentful. I Don't Want Those Years Back. I'm Not One Of Those Women Who Thinks Men Are Bastards. I Love Men: Straight Men, Gay Men. I've Always Had Men Close To Me, From The Time I Was A Child.

The Arts Were A Big Part Of My Childhood. We Went To The Theatre And Opera A Lot As A Family. We Were Not At All Wealthy, But It Was At A Time When The Arts Were Publicly Funded And There Were Free Tickets Available. For Someone Like Myself Who Wasn't That Academically Inclined, It Was A Great Escape.

I Think Women Should Have What They Determine To Be A Staple In Their Closet, Because Who's To Say That My Staple Is Someone Else's Staple? I'm This Tall, And I Live In This City, And I Have To Walk The Kids To School, And I Don't Tend To Drive As Much - My Life Requirements Are Radically Different Than Yours Or Hers Or His. Staples Are: What Do You Need? And Then, What Do You Want? "need" Comes First, Typically; "want" Gets Taken Care Of Occasionally.

I'm Thinking Balls Are To Men, What Purses Are To Women. It's Just A Little Bag But We'd Feel Naked In Public Without It.

I Love Jennifer Hudson! She Is So Lovely On Screen. She Is So Buoyant And Youthful Off Screen As Much As On.
