Not sure if this one is even in print anymore, but I can't
stop recommending Susan Parker's hilarious and true story
of how she continued her life after her husband's devastating bike
accident and subsequent paralysis. It's called
Tumbling After: Pedaling Like Crazy After Life
Goes Downhill (Crown, April 2002
ISBN 0609608568) There is love, sex,
and neighborhood support. I guarantee you'll laugh and cry.
This is a wonderful book--one of my all-time favorites.
Be open minded. Last I knew,
Parker was a columnist at the Berkeley Daily Planet
and the San Francisco Chronicle.
Get your hands on this book at the library or a used
book store. It's the best. (Must be open minded.)
Miss Thompson heads down the shore tomorrow,
wearing sunscreen and CoverGirl's new WetSlicks
AmazeMint lip gloss (tastes/smells Crest minty),
shade 640 Freedom of Peach. Similar to Nars'
Chelsea Girls lip lacquer pot gloss, but a little sparkly.
In sponge-wand form, so it's easy to put on in the car.
Miss Thompson paid for her lip gloss using her
debit card. $4.69 at Harmon Face Values.
