Introduction Catholic. Married with no children, 1 Yorkie. An overeducated, underemployed, downwardly mobile ex-therapist with a lot of skills, little direction and no ambition. With apologies to Christopher Lasch (in The Culture of Narcissism): since I can no longer believe in my uniqueness, I have fallen in love with my complexity. Good sense of humor, liberally employed as a saving grace, cover for hostility, defense against depression and marvelous lifetime companion.
