Okay then,

Why are the most talented people I know...unable to make a living from their talent?

Can't help you with that. When you know, call me. Not that I and certain friends are sooooo talented, but we have spent a lot of years in the realm of it.

Hi Jackie, buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzbuzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
A fly on the wall eh. Hush, no buzzin' cos Mrs. Oak has a pair of pearl handled fly sprays and hefty fly swat with a hair trigger.
A kinda Billy the Kid personna, in a frock.
I took her to the supermarket this morning and she said if there is anything you see & want, put in the cart. Zooooooooooooooo, I went and got a case of beer. Big mistake. Take it back she said.
Well go to plan B. I've got to go downtown this afternoon, so I'll pop into the pub and have 1 or 2 there. Not a word to anyone tho.
Softly, softly all the way

interesting the differences in people and their habits......chemistry an experiences. Some avoid conflict and it works well for them. I sometimes seem to go looking for it......and once found enjoy it. A "don't tell me what to do" attitude. Now that I think about it, I am feeling stubborn today. I wonder why?

I shouldn't be this mad at Sandra, but I am.
What was she thinking?
It's not like being 40 is a big deal.

40 years old. When was that I ask myself. Answer, been there, seen it, done it, worn the t-shirt, forgotten it and moved on.

I really wish Chef Jon would call me. Even if it is just to say hi. Why is it that people you work with, that you suddenly don't work with anymore, tend to not keep in touch.....I'm so sad.

Rae, I know exactly how you feel honey. Someone you thought you knew and got along with, up and splits, for whatever reason & that's it. Gone. People can be fickle, get involved in other deals. Their lives change. There are people I've worked with, had a drink with, helped put the world to rights with 'em. It's suddenly cut off, simply coz work has changed. A simple phonecall or a postcard saying "hi babe how yer doin'" would do the trick. Unfortunately the old saying "Out of sight, out of mind" is par for the course.

You feel let down, it might seem cold, but remember Rae, you are your own #1,

God bless you, remember there are people who do need you for all the right reasons.

Is it safe to assume that you have made an effort to maintain the friendship, Rae, and the chef just hasn't responded?

Thanks John. Just tried to call Chef, on both his cell and home phone. At least I'm trying.

Wish I could give my friend a hug.....My friend, John.
