TROY TV-5
It’s time to master the art of smiling and nodding
Today: 5 p.m.: Steel Dreams 6 p.m.: Sport Pilot TV 8 p.m.: Spotlight
Dear Annie: I have enjoyed a wonderful friendship with "Sharon" for the past eight years. However, lately she talks nonstop and interrupts me so often during conversations that the only way to enjoy our interaction is through email or by exchanging voicemails. Sharon has always been a high-detail storyteller, going off on frequent tangents and being very involved in the narration. But in the past few months, her inability to stop talking is problematic. I can't get her attention unless I actually yell, "Hey, Sharon! Stop!" And on the rare occasion when she asks about my personal life, she will interrupt me with another question before I've started answering the first one. In fact, she sometimes answers the questions for me. She'll ask how my day was and then proceed to tell me. It's bizarre. Just recounting these conversations makes my chest tighten with frustration. I have tried talking over her, but she can outdo me in that arena. I have also become very still the minute she interrupts me, and frankly, she seems completely oblivious. I would say something to Sharon about this, but she is very sensitive, and I'd end up hurting her feelings deeply. Also, I have other friends I can lean on if I have a serious issue, so I don't really need Sharon for this purpose. But her behavior is so annoying that I see no solution other than limiting our friendship, which is unfortunate because she is otherwise a bright, funny, enjoyable person to be with. Sharon recently asked me out for coffee, and I am avoiding sending a response. Any words of wisdom? — Speechless in Omaha Dear Omaha: You seem to have a good grasp of the problem: You don't think telling Sharon about your unhappiness will garner positive results, but you still wish to maintain the friendship. Remaining silent while she prattles on won't frustrate you so much if you recognize upfront that this is going to be the dynamic. Master the art of the benign smile. You are not there to converse. You are there to listen to Sharon's amusing stories, which you apparently enjoy. Dear Annie: I am a 24-yearold college graduate and have found a job that I love. I am not yet confident enough in my finances to rent an apartment, so I'm living with my parents while saving money and building credit. The problem is, my father is stressing me out. He constantly yells at me, eavesdrops on personal conversations with my mother and expresses his dissatisfaction with my life. He thinks I should be making more money, but I love my job and am certain my hours will improve when the economy rebounds. I don't want to ruin my savings by moving out and paying all that rent, but Dad's constant criticism is depressing. What should I do? — New Adult Dear Adult: It's time to move out. Your independence and peace of mind are worth a little rent, maybe with multiple roommates. You also can talk calmly with your father and explain how his constant negativity affects you. We think one reason he eavesdrops on your conversations with Mom is because he feels left out. His criticism is the only way he knows how to stay involved in your life. Dear Annie: I have a response to "Hurt by Gossip," whose in-laws can't keep a secret and repeat everything she tells them to everybody. The next time "Hurt" is tempted to share something with the in-laws, she should ask herself, "Is this something I would be comfortable posting on Facebook?" If the answer is no, she shouldn't tell the in-laws, either. — Mrs. Beans Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

HINTS FROM HELOISE
It’s time to honor our dads for being good fathers Dear Readers: Father’s Day is tomorrow, and it’s time to thank our fathers for being good dads. Below are a few of our readers’ classic helpful hints for dad. What are your favorite hints to honor your father? • Corrinne in Texas calls her father every night. He lives in Seattle, and he loves hearing from her daily. She keeps a notebook with her throughout the day to jot down things she doesn’t want to forget to tell him. • Laura’s daughters make their dad a unique breakfast in bed on Father’s Day. Laura only assists, so what the girls come up with can be quite,
Hints from Heloise Columnist well, interesting! • Colleen in New York carries on a legacy that was her father’s last wish.

went to the ATM and withdrew $120 from my savings account. Then, after tucking my purse under my front seat, I headed into my favorite megaretailer with the cash in hand and picked up many muchneeded items. I told the cashier that I had only the $120, so I needed a subtotal along the way as she was ringing up my order. Wouldn’t you know that my purchases, including sales tax, totaled exactly $120! What are the odds? The cashier suggested that I buy a lottery ticket, but I had no money left over! — Karen in Texas
