"Not to pry or anything but I think this is the second post of yours that I've read where you mention doing time in prison...
Ummm....what happened?, (if you don't mind me asking)"
Got busted making a 329 pound drug deal. Cost me 74 months.
LOL
I thought female too because of the Mom.
Curtis Sliwa of Gaurdian Angels and WABC Radio fame was getting married for the THIRD time. I was his last caller while he was still a "free man". I told him he didn't need to get married because I figured out his problem, "Curtis, you just don't like to eat alone. Get a dog and let it sit at the table."
I also asked, "What have you been using as a pick up line? "Hi, I'm Curtis, would you like a house?"
Last I suggested that he cut to the finale and save all that time getting married, "Find a woman you dispise and give her a house."
I may get a new girlfriend in March.
Just kidding.
Flash forward a couple years-- I found the right person and am so very, very happy. All things will happen in time. It sounds corny, but its true.
Love does come to loving people. But it comes on its schedule.
Princess Leia didn't date any Wookies you know.
Somehow I'm inspired to post a link to this video:
By myself alone, but never lonely.
Don't let the commercialization of Valentine's Day get you down. It's far better to be alone than with a jerk.
The following poem was not found in an old Baltimore church:
Introduction
You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.....
Deteriorata! Deteriorata!
Go placidly
Amid the noise and waste.
And remember what comfort there may be
In owning a piece thereof.
Avoid quiet and passive persons
Unless you are in need of sleep.
Ro-tate your tires.
Speak glowingly of those greater than yourself
And heed well their advice,
Even though they be turkeys.
Know what to kiss.....and when!
Consider that two wrongs never make a right
But that THREE.........do.
Wherever possible, put people on hold.
Be comforted that in the face of all aridity and disillusionment
And despite the changing fortunes of time,
There is always a big future in computer main-te-nance.
Chorus
You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back.
Remember the Pueblo.
Strive at all times to bend, fold, spindle and mu-ti-late.
Know yourself.
If you need help, call the FBI.
Exercise caution in your daily affairs,
Especially with those persons closest to you.
That lemon on your left, for instance.
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls
Would scarcely get your feet wet.
Fall not in love therefore;
It will stick to your face.
Gracefully surrender the things of youth:
The birds, clean air, tuna, Taiwan
And let not the sands of time
Get in your lunch.
Hire people with hooks.
For a good time call 606-4311;
Ask for "Ken."
Take heart amid the deepening gloom
That your dog is finally getting enough cheese.
And reflect that whatever misfortune may be your lot
It could only be worse in Milwaukee.
Chorus
You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back.
Therefore, make peace with your god
Whatever you conceive him to be---
Hairy thunderer, or cosmic muffin.
With all its hopes, dreams, promises and urban renewal
The world continues to deteriorate.
GIVE UP!
Reprise
You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back.
Lonely? No. Alone? Yes.
Unless you count all the FReepers I can chat with tonight...
LMAO Incorrigible!
Thank you.
:-)
Thank you for you kind words RosieCotton!
Thank God for Free Republic!
You mean I was finally right?!?!?! LOL
I was married 22 years and they were the loneliest 22 years of my life.
There's worse things than being alone...
Sometimes you have to have been there to realize that. Some people are looking for happiness in another person. If you can't be happy with yourself, by yourself, you aren't going to magically be happy with someone else.
Amen!
My goodness! You're on a roll!
Two for Two....
I agree with everything you just said...er...wrote. ;-)
I've NEVER celebrated Valentine's Day.
