They coordinated their moves, conversations, and wardrobe. Connie had high ambitions but Tony liked to coast by in life. Their friends said that Connie and Tony were the true definition of 'Opposites Attract'. Years and years later, Connie, a college graduate, became a teacher. Tony, the love of her life, was still reading the want ads, looking for the dream job. Dear readers, you would think that this would be the end of this love story, but it's just the beginning!

How could she prove that she was the girl at the ball? Is there a Medieval Law School that she can attend to defend her case against the evil step sisters? This has always troubled me. I mean, they are traveling around with a very delicate piece of footwear on a pillow. A pillow! Is that considered safe? Poor Cinderella, Or should I say Lucky Cinderella? Thanks to a level headed foot man, good old Cindy got to try on the glass slipper. Think about it, she could have lost it.

The water being those nice homes where mother wore an apron and baked cookies and father came home from work, droppping his briefcase only to pick up his daughter and swing her around. When you put poor little Victoria into that neighborhood, her gills dry up and she begins to choke. She chokes back the tears for her broken family. She also chokes back the curse words that she'd like to scream at the children who torture her with their cruelty. But, most of all, she'd like to choke her father, the man who chose his wander lust over his wonderful family. Yep, little Vickie had more issues than Life magazine. Ironically, our dear fish out of water is a Pisces! Any child of divorced parents in the 60′s was a fish out of water.
