small business
in life, ladies,
there are no winners
or losers–
except, maybe, in sports
and divorces.
speaking of which, as we are–
our neighbor, carrie, was telling me
that she’s been running into her ex-husband
around town lately:
at the 7-11,
at her uncle andy’s american bbq,
at the gym,
at jiffy lube (where he works),
or the wal-mart in panorama city (where she works and he shops)…
sometimes, even at the park
or the beach
with his new family.
“and do you know why?” she said.
“because the world is SMALL.”
if you can’t share something,
why do it at all? i wondered.
“that’s what john used to say.”
john, of course, was carrie’s ex-husband:
former utah jazz point guard john stockton.
