“"A brilliant existential therapist once composed a Mobius strip sentence. It goes like this, 'Mom and Dad, I refuse to grow up until you love me the way I needed to be loved when I am seven.' " JD was a cop, and a good one, but the concept of holding on to one's childhood in a vain effort to change it seemed to elude him. "Don't you think finding out you're adopted after your parents died would upset you, too?" "It doesn't matter what would upset me. The point is you're going around in circles,... JD Booze won't cure hurt feelings, and in fact it exacerbates them. Believe me, I know all about that. Don't wimp out." His eyes narrowed with anger, but he released it seconds later. JD was powerfully built but on the short side for LAPD. He still looked like he bench pressed three hundred, easy. He leaned forward and hunched those broad shoulders. "I read your bio at the station Web site," he said. "You didn't have it so easy." Not much point in avoiding disclosure when the information is out there on the Internet.MoreLessRead More Read Less
