Diana and I go way back. She and I met almost 15 years ago. I was a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed youngin’ starting out in Los Angeles, and she had just gotten her esthetician career off and running. It was love at first facial. I loved how Diana (pronounced Dee-anna) and I could talk about anything, ...
