Saturday 9: I'm Not in Love
1. Have you ever been in love but tried to deny it? Always
2. Someone throws a party in your honor. The only guests are your past lovers. You're current spouse or significant other is cool with this. They ask you to speak and say something good about those assembled. Would there be someone there you could not say something good about? Yes. But just one. Most of those assembled would be very nice men.
3. How long can you go without your cell phone? Do you own a so-called “smart phone”? I go days without checking my phone. And no, it's not a smartie.
4. Do you believe everyone deserves a second chance? I used to, but the "bad guy" of question #2 makes me question it.
5. Would you rather spend a whole day with your mom or your dad? (If either or both have passed, answer as if they're alive.) My mom
6. Tell us one thing about your first boyfriend or girlfriend. We have both moved on, and on, and on.
7. Has an ex ever written something about you on facebook or their blog that was nasty about you? No. We're all a little old for that.
8. What was the last thing you borrowed and never returned? I'm sure there's a book or two in my den that do not belong to me.
9. Who is someone famous that you've met? Does kissing Bruce Springsteen count?
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
Uh, yeah, I'd say kissing Bruce counts for maybe 3 people. LOL Stopping by from the Saturday 9.
ReplyDeleteYou misquoted the song. It's "on and on and on and on dear Prudence... ;)
ReplyDeleteNo way- Springsteen?

It doesn't surprise me that your exes are very nice men (aside from the bad guy).
