My old friend Jack's birthday party is tonight. I already decided not to play poker. I don't like to play unless I feel lucky. That's how I have always felt about love too. So I should be home by 10PM...Now if I had a really busy social life filled with love and romance....I think 10 PM would be early. John is working in Ft Worth tonight and it will probably be Sunday till I see him. The odds are good that I will see Randy at Jack's birthday, but we all know that's not going anywhere.
The phone rings and it is my ex-fiancee (he's married and our relationship was over years ago anyway). Now apparently he has been thinking that we need to talk again. The last time I saw him was a couple of months ago. He asked if I would play chess with him sometime. I said sure. He wants to come over Sunday afternoon. Well I got to thinking about it, and if I remember right that was a kinda foreplay, in our long ago relationship.
Anyway, I write this silly little blog about Randy and I being "engaged to be in love"..I spend time with John "dancing". Now the possibility of forbidden romance (not one I will pursue) has reared it's ugly head. The timing is interesting.
I think what it means, is I am an all or nothing kinda woman...boom or bust..lots of choices or a romance wasteland.
So For John.....

and we are never ever the same.
