Maybe more than once. Just reading your story made me have flashbacks to all kinds of things like that, which I don't even remember, I just remember the feeling. Gee, thanks.<BR/><BR/>-ellenElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827436807468320435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21924162.post-13122413842361820022008-06-21T00:53:00.000-07:002008-06-21T00:53:00.000-07:00Whew, and I thought Agility Twister was complicate...Whew, and I thought Agility Twister was complicated!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21924162.post-78101898277144758032008-06-20T11:26:00.000-07:002008-06-20T11:26:00.000-07:00"Portrait of the Former Artist as a Young Woman""Portrait of the Former Artist as a Young Woman"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21924162.post-7121264204428157572008-06-20T09:46:00.000-07:002008-06-20T09:46:00.000-07:00I like totally understand.Hey wait a second, what'...I like totally understand.<BR/>Hey wait a second, what's different about agility? whoops!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21924162.post-25292518191070569332008-06-20T08:50:00.000-07:002008-06-20T08:50:00.000-07:00Right, OK, see Mary?

That even the people who are actually quite fond of you have started cutting you off mid-first-sentence of such stories? Isn't this odd?

I was having my teeth cleaned and the hygienist asked me where I worked. When I told her she asked me if I knew 'Lydia'. I reply 'Oh yes, of course I do, she's really nice. It's a shame though she's leaving us in several months to have a baby.' The hygienist then explains that her husband, soon the be ex-husband, is leaving her for Lydia. I'm not sure if she knew about the baby or not. Here's a tip folks, do not get in the middle of a sordid love triangle while one of the participants has sharp metal tools and access to your mouth. Most painful dental cleaning ever. Though still probably not as uncomfortable as being stuck at a trendy pool party in L.A. for hours with a pair of pissed off celebrity dating power lesbians.Elaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02734583197185810124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21924162.post-2666888208423284312008-06-20T07:53:00.000-07:002008-06-20T07:53:00.000-07:00God, Laura -- was I there at that particular event...God, Laura -- was I there at that particular event? With Karl? It is so eerily familiar... I have been to that place of the pool and dogs, and I don't know anyone else with dogs in LA, so who else could it have been? Either that or I have heard this story from you and it was so real to me that it has become a memory...<BR/><BR/>-LaurelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
