There are two men in my life right now: one who won't commit to me, and one who can't let me commit to him.  I learned a painful thing from the two Georges, that one half plus one half equals nothing.  I can't make them into one man, synthesizing their antonyms (film/television, serious/cordial, raw/proper) any more than I can make myself two women ( Read more... )

that is really a sweet entry.

i have to agree with shescreamed about the boy-toys. better solo than compromised.

but i have to disagree with referring to that quintessential phallic symbol that is the empire state building with a feminine pronoun.

That was a lovely post. I particularly liked your math: skirt plus knee socks equals pants. Well put.
