ffloKnowing nothing about Sandra Dee's personal life, and wondering what ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
catelin meant about her dying of a broken heart, I just went to read some obits. Her given name? Alexandra Zuck.
Seems a bloody shame she didn't just go by that. Agreed?
The heartbreak apparently involved childhood sexual abuse, a stage mother (is "stage" the expression for a parent who pushes a child into show biz? i'm suddenly drawing a blank), alcohol problems, depression, anorexia, and a veritable nervous breakdown after her mother died.
In other news, I am free from the all-day faint but persistent high-pitched screeching I thought at first was outside, then thought was my monitor, then realized was coming from my desk lamp. The lightbulb's death rattle. Or last throes, more accurately. The absence of that brain-piercing pitch is such a relief I want to dance. (Not as much asradicalteacher probably does, but she's dancier than the average bear, I'd wager.)
And now Sandra Dee has me thinking on things old ex- D and new ex- H have/had in common. Any guesses why? (No, it's not prompted by Dee/Zuck's "mother issues.")
What one's past loves have in common . . . interesting topic . . .

Date: Feb. 23rd, 2005 06:49 pm (UTC)I never made either of my love's feel that way, and, in turn, they both respected the fact that I'm getting mine and didn't try to belittle my education because of their own hang ups.
