I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to cope. I want to thrive and slide into Heaven when I’m 104 (God willing) after I gave it all away – love, talent, genius, everything. I want to experience more life and good times. I don’t want to write that I don’t do enough of […]

I saw a Frasier episode where he mistakenly got an invitation for an exclusive spa in Seattle addressed to his condo nemesis.
