Don't let one bad apple spoil the whole...

wait, did someone say Apple Martinis???

Truth be told; he is a die hard Neil Diamond fan - yes, sequins and all.

Nope, not a gay cell on the man. The Barry Manilow line was a joke

I love a guy who doesn't care for watching sports.
He's not fond of ABBA but Barry Manilow does make him weepy.

I am sorry this has happened to you. Even if it was five years ago, the feelings are still there. There are things in this life that no one can figure out.

A similar thing happened to a friend of mine a few years ago. She met this incredible guy at a party, they immediately hit it off, they both knew it was something special. They spent many hours together that evening talking late into the early hours of the morning, just talking.
He promised to call her the next day to make plans; of course she never heard from him again and was pretty devastated thinking she had really misjudged their connection and his intentions.
A few days later she ran into the mutual friends from the party. They told her that he had been killed by a drunk driver that morning going home from the party.
The 'what ifs' almost drove her crazy.

Again, my sympathy to you.

I want pampered like a two year old!

A woman after my own heart! Let's DO something, putt putt golf, a game arcade, an outdoor concert, a festival, something. But anything other than staring at each other across a table at a loss for words when it's not an instant chemistry.

Let's get creative here people!

I smoke but only four or five a week, maybe more if I'm around smokers. I've never had any complaints.

Kissing a habitual smoker does have drawbacks. There is only so much mouthwash and mints can cover up if it's oozing out of their pores.
There have been some that have been worth it though!

One at a time was more than enough, thank you very much.

This temporary dialup service is driving me batty.

Thank you for the warm welcome all. I'll be back after more unpacking.

Have a great evening and weekend!

Stranger Danger

An ice cold Corona sounds might fine right now. Can I help myself?

Beautiful writing here; time, time, time is the greatest healer.
May God be with you.

Just trying to stay safe til I get a feel for the lay of the land here.
The third picture isn't me, just a picture I liked.

Pretty stormy and for a girl who does not like storms it's been a rough start. I am just hoping it settles down soon.

Everything should just be groovy!

This is all starting to sound like a pretty stringent test; there is shunning? Eeeks.

This is scary stuff. I just moved here from the Northeast. What was I thinking?

I hope everyone stays safe and this whole thing weakens before landfall.

Did I pass?

So what is the secret handshake?
Is there a price associated or a minimum stay before I get let in on the secret?

Acceptable to whom?
Age is a number, it's all in the mind.
It's who the person is, not their chronological age that matters.
