Here's a bright ray of hope for you, CCL: I was abruptly abandoned by the guy I was with for 15 years just as I was going through menopause. Turns out that even though I'd love to believe there could be zzzing again someday, deep down I'm having a hard time working up a good I-could-care.

So, jeez, another what -- 20 years -- and maybe it won't matter to you anymore. Now that's something to look forward to, eh?

Yes, I am related to Little Mary Sunshine. Glad you asked.
