GOD GIRL NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT Dear Friends and Passersby of Good Will: My mother, Helen, was diagnosed late last week with breast cancer — invasive lobular carcinoma — in both breasts and will have to have a double mastectomy in the coming weeks.

GODSTUFF: WE’RE ALL HYPOCRITES, AND THAT’S THE GOOD NEWS Mel and Mark and Ted and . . . the rest of us. We’re all hypocrites. Don’t shake your head “no.” Be honest. (Consider this a safe space. For the next 800 words, we promise not to judge you. You’re among friends.) Maybe your hypocrisy isn’t of the sexy variety that lands the unfortunate few on the front page of the National Enquirer or the New York Times, as was the... Read more

ON MY MIND: IT’S SO HARD I AM THE WORLD’S WORST WAITER.Really. I think I was born without the patience gene. Waiting. Makes. Me. Bonkers. To mitigate the insanity (and to drown out KFKD, which has been playing in stereo in my head now for days — like a bad Bee Gees marathon), I’ve plugged in the iPod, slammed on the noise-proof earphones (that Mr. Bose is a miracle worker), and have put the Dixie Chicks on repeat. Ms. Natalie... Read more
