Flying High
“After rubbing her eyes, she grabbed her head. Oh, no! What on earth did I do to myself?
Gingerly, as if to avoid contact with the air around her, she raised her head and looked around. Surely she hadn’t dropped her blue silk designer suit in a heap on the chair. As she climbed out of bed, she remembered the previous evening—or part of it—with Nelson and sat down. For the first time in her life she couldn’t recall events that might be of the utmost importance. Thoroughly annoyed with herself... for having drunk so much wine she slapped her forehead with the palm of her right hand. Good Lord! How much champagne did she drink? One glass was her limit and that with dessert after a full meal. What kind of woman called a man to ask what happened the night before? She padded to the bathroom, showered, brushed her teeth and wished she’d made coffee first.
When she finally sat down with a cup of coffee in front of her and was about to give herself the luxury of ignoring the ringing telephone, she remembered that, as a doctor, she couldn’t do that.MoreLess
