Designing Woman

Tuesday night, July 21

I'd heard that my old friend Denise was working at a business in Falls Church, so I thought I'd look her up. I walked in and said, "Is Denise P. here?" She said, "Yes, she works here; she designs couches." She wasn't in at the moment.

I think Denise has a new last name, hence the P. I still haven't seen her since she was 18. She turned 40 last May.
