When the world outside is crumbling, where will your mind send you? Into a dream? A nightmare? Into the arms of a stranger?

Suzanne Bailie
Suzanne Bailie is many things but lately she has found it terribly challenging to keep her mind focused for more than two or three minutes. Remarkably similar to the attention span of the frolicking squirrels in her backyard. Suzanne’s time is now used to think of areas of her home she should clean but doesn’t. She excels at looking for recipes that are egg-free, dairy-free, gluten-free and actually may taste good. (But does she ever make the recipes?) Using YouTube videos, she is relearning how to dance the Salsa with her husband. Unfortunately, she has become accustomed to losing when playing Gin-Rummy and uses it as an excuse to sip cheap tequila and pout.
