my old face (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A family friend in my dad’s peer group recently gave me an old photograph that he’d found while cleaning out his home in preparation for a move.The picture had been taken at a barbecue gathering in my late high school years, and in it I’m standing with two other young women with whom I’ve since lost touch.The photograph, which I’d never before seen, took my breath away. I’m not going to downplay it: I looked really good.He gave it to me while gathered with about 10 other adults, who all know me
main character energy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Of all the modern slang that I grasp, one of my faves is main character energy. From the teenage sources who share my roof, I understand it to be a nuanced descriptor that can be a positive nod toward perceived confidence, self-assuredness and swagger.

The Midlife Breakfast Club (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The closing scene of The Breakfast Club likely occupies some space in your memory if you’ve ever felt an affection toward Molly Ringwald. Five personality-clashing teens are stuck together for a full Saturday of detention, and despite all likelihood in a cliquey 1980’s high school that feasts on stereotypes, ultimately, they find common ground, mutual respect and even some self-respect.The closing narration, before the iconic fist-pump-in-the-air-ending, captures their sentiments
