At 7, I started getting ready; I laid out mydress, my shoes, a black clutch from my closet, and I picked severalsilver rings and a small silver pendan.... I also added a cute silver cuffbracelet for good measure. My nerves were going crazy, and at the sametime, I couldn't wait to see Alex.At 8, I began my makeup, starting with my foundation. From there, I didmy eyes in a blend of brown and gold shadow, with a dramatic slash ofblack eyeliner on each lid, followed by a light shimmery layer on top.. He was very nervous. "Take a wild guess." Dad?" Bettie laughed out loud."Sorry. You're so young and innocent. I know you think things are supposed to be a certain way. But life has a way of turning out very different than the way it should be. Have you grown hair down there?"Jack was about to take the last drink of his cocktail. Bettie downed hers. She stood up and reached out for Jack's glass. He handed it to her and she went to make more. When she returned she smiled. "Show it to me." What?". I'm only here for and hour or so, to change planes." Yeah well, same here. I'm trying to get down to Florida, but ... well our plane had a problem and had to put down here. Then it was withdrawn from service completely so that has put the cat amongst the pigeons. I'm supposed to be in Miami for a photo shoot first thing in the morning. They've managed to wangle me onto another flight, later today." God knows why it's so busy at the moment. I couldn't get a seat on a direct flight from San. Let's see how the weekend goes. And anyway, if I'm going to cry on your shoulder, I need whisky to mix with my tears."He smiled, and I asked, "What's Peter doing?"He shook his head, "I don't know. I suggested that he takes the day off, and that he goes and sees a solicitor. And I suggested that he might go off to his Welsh cottage for the weekend, that's where he seems to do his thinking. But whether he will or not, I don't know. He was still in his office when I left." Well it's his life, and.
