• To shut the door at the end of the workday, which does not spill over into evening. To throw away books after reading them so theydon't have to be dusted.

Other women besides me must have this daydream about a carefree life.

• Only sad sacks and conformists need things like no kiss on New Year's Eve to remind them to feel lonely.

You can feel sorry for yourself and dress like a hooker all year round: Hallmark never needs to know.

• On New Year's Eve, my dear friend lost his battle with depression . . . Though he wasn't the first friend I've lost to suicide, I sure hope he's the last.

I wish they knew that they were surrounded by countless others who struggle on a daily basis.
