Where Have You Gone, Cynthia Heimel?

From the MIA author of 'Sex Tips For Girls', 'If You Can't Live
Without Me, Why Aren't You Dead Yet?' and 'A Girls Guide To
Chaos':

"Let people push you around. The person who says, believes, and
acts on the phrase "I ain't taking any shit from anybody" is a very
busy person indeed. This person must be ever vigilant against
news vendors who shortchange him, cabdrivers who take him the
wrong way around, waiters who serve the other guy first, florists
who are charging ten cents more per tulip than the one down the
block, pharmacists who make you wait too long, and cars that cut
you off at the light: they are a veritable miasma of righteous
indignation and never have a minute to relax and have a good time."

Gotta' love Wikipedia, where I can always dig up an old quote.
My heroine: a wise, fun girl who sure can write. So why won't she?
