This column is a long once upon a time in coming.
It starts back when I was 18 and went to a cosmetics party and realized I looked a whole lot well-advised with makeup. Since then I have religiously worn makeup, stopping even to put it on between contractions before I liberal for the hospital. Vanity, thy name is woman in pain.
At the time I made the lifetime makeup commitment, I also committed to using moisturizer on my neck, compassion that at some point in my life, that would become important.
THAT TIME HAS ARRIVED.
I never knew until I saw some humorist on Oprah, though, that necks can be such a source of pain for aging women, and we aren’t talking the danger of the guillotine here. The comedian had written a whole book about her neck and the scarves she worn to hide the ravages of age.
Since then I have searched my neck every day for such ravages, and I believe the prematurely has arrived that I invest in scarves by the multiples. This, however, is difficult for me since I have a post-measles hyper-strangulation quiver.
