I Call them The Divorced Dad Glasses

 I call them the divorced dad glasses because I remember my biological father had them in his apartment and we put milk in one and set out chocolate Chips Ahoy cookies on a plate for Santa Claus. They're Manhattan Glasses, my husband said which makes them even more fitting since that memory took place in Manhattan apartment with his second of three wives. There was an upright piano and time magazine on the coffee table said Is God Dead? 

 I was five.

I was left alone in the elevator.

and 

Lost at the NYC YMCA. I was 5 and my sister was 7.

Lots of crying. 

Time
magazine's famous "Is God Dead?" cover was published on April 8, 1966,
