Confessions of a COVID Neurotic “Larry David, Call Me”

Gail Forrest -
I flunked taking a COVID-19 rapid test. Show me a piece of paper with instructions on it and I’ll show you a person unable to follow them.  I became panic struck when my neighbor sent me a text that she had a sore throat. Oh no, not a sore...

Call Me if You’ve Slept Thru the Night in the Last Two Years

Gail Forrest -
"To sleep, perchance to dream"... hold on Hamlet, you wacky Prince of Denmark, if you could fall asleep why can't I?  I had mother issues also but not as serious as yours.  My Mom wanted to know what I was wearing, where I was going, with whom, and most...

New Year Resolutions – Here They Come Again and There They Go

Gail Forrest -
It’s New Year’s resolution time again.  I can’t say 2021 flew by but I’m glad it’s over as my brain is near the exploding point from the endless “breaking news” which if it’s “breaking” it’s never good.  And although I liked seeing Dr.Fauci 24/7, as he reminds me of...

My Grinch Advanced Training

Gail Forrest -
Bah humbug, it’s that time of year when the holiday Grinch in me comes out in full force.  I never like being invited to holiday parties because people are expected to bring things.  Hostess/host gifts give me a headache as they involve: wine over fifteen dollars a bottle, food...

Modern Love – The Update

Gail Forrest -
It was a Tuesday. I reluctantly woke up, crawled out of bed, put on a pair of ratty sweatpants to walk the dog, unplugged my iPhone from the charger and tuned it back on.  And turned it back on? I stared at it in horror. The little phone that...

True Confessions: Men & Women on the Street Interviews

Gail Forrest -
What do men and women really know about each other? If we could be inside each other’s head would the shock factor turn us to stone? Are there questions too difficult to ask or answers which we would rather not hear? This haunts me, after all, none of us...

Sex Over Sixty: Hot or Not?

Gail Forrest -
Recently, out on a Match.com date, a 76-year-old man asked me if women over 60 still want to have sex. Just as a warning, he stated on his profile that he was 66; funny math, I'd say. And men protest that women fudge the numbers! Geez. Because of his...

Weight Weight, Don’t Tell Me!

Gail Forrest -
Everyone I know is on a diet. We are a nation in pursuit of thin. Have you noticed no one’s ever NOT dieting? And there is a diet for every life. Each week a new one: intermittent fasting, Keto, Paleo (does that involve dinosaurs or dating a paleontologist?), all...

“It’s In His Kiss. That’s Where It Is”

Gail Forrest -
Do you remember your first kiss? It’s memorable; one of the epic firsts in girl’s life.  I, however, am embarrassed to admit that mine wasn’t until high school. There was a lot of middle school kissing going on, just not with me. I was way behind on the adolescent...

Breaking News: Knitting Added to Both Winter and Summer Olympic Games

Gail Forrest -
I am a knitter in training. I suck, but love it. I have become crazed with picking up my bamboo needles whenever I have a free moment. I even love the needles; so shiny and smooth yet maddening as they betray me and drop stitches and holes appear. Curses! ...
