A Different Day, A Different Season


Last May, my Favorite Pilot took me flying around Long Island. I can't remember the goal of the flight but we did fly over an estate where my pilot would play a band job the following day. This particular stretch was on the way. In reality, I have no idea where this is, apart from Long Island, but I know a guy that knows the island, and I have no doubt that he could tell you.

Today, a co-worker and friend (a woman) told me, "Girl, you have good legs." Now, in my mind the reality is that I'm a short round female closer to 40 than I want to be and pushing the envelope with black footless tights and a black mini-dress most likely more appropriate to someone literally at this point, half my age. Yet, I have to admit, that kind and spontaneous comment had this 30-something shorty walking tall. So today, thanks to complimentary co-workers that help keep the hounds of age in check.

  3. Thanks Kate. Yes, I love to fly like that too. (As long as I've taken those wonderful little motion pills.)
