Some women (oops. excuse us, PC police, some people) will take any chance they can get to score a discount on the latest in fashion. Even if it means forgoing the safety of a loved one. But we’re not quite sure anyone would really know what to do with a ransom message that arrived on a VHS tape. That’s sort of like asking a 15 year old to send a text from a pay phone.

I’m 73 and I slept badly for a decade before I understood that the problem wasn’t my sleep — it was everything I was bringing to the bed with me, the unresolved conversations, the accumulated worries I’d been too busy to feel during the day, the low-grade anxiety about everything and nothing that only found its full voice in the dark, and the sleep got better when I stopped treating it as a separate problem and started treating it as information
