Day One

The trip begins with background details. I am fueled by adrenaline and male attention. That's my twist on the AA pledge. My first mid life crisis type train wreck eye opener went down at 30 . I'd been dumped by a ridiculously handsome man who in hindsight had nothing going for him besides said ridiculous handsomeness. I went into "40 Something Married Guy" mode, bought an antique sports car, got a huge tattoo and found a boyfriend 8 years my junior. Now, at 35, my car still mostly runs, tattoo has been methodically enlarged and the young man-pet is now my husband.

By this lame and contrived precedence I attest that my acts of reinvention last.

It's time to do it again...
