Meeting Myrna

I chanced upon Myrna at Kroger's yesterday while shopping for comfort food to entice the grandkids. She was my lover in "Love Letters."

After asking me a question about play tryouts in the fall gone by, she said she and Gary, recently retired from a high-level position at Ohio Casualty, had bought a house in D.C. I said "Why D.C.?"

"We have two children in the D.C. area," she replied.

"What about Florida?" (Knowing they could afford that too.)

"No, it's only cold here in Cincinnati for two months of the year."

I like that.
