Michael who?

I remember many years ago when I was about 7 years removed from my first disastrous marriage I bumped into an old acquaintance I had not seen in forever. She asked, "How's Ed?"
I squinted my eyes and cocked my head like the RCA puppy and asked "Ed?" She replied, "Ed... you know...the guy you married?"
OOOOH...that Ed!
That was a great day. That was the day I realized the scars were gone, my life was my own again and I was me...really me.
I am happily anticipating the immanent return of that feeling. The day I wake up and remember that I am no longer defined by being whatshisname's wife. It is fast approaching, in fact it could be today...yes...today is a good day.
