You Must Remember This…

For starters let me warn you that I am writing this blog entry under the influence of high-strength antibiotics. I have been suffering from what I thought was a lousy cold and it turned out to be a lousy case of walking pneumonia. Which means my entire right lung is full of something that resembles the lint you find in the bottom of the pocket of a man who  has been drowned at sea for about fourteen days or so.

I am talking funky, moldy, mildewed gunk.

So enough about me.

Let’s talk about Valentine’s Day.

It is a day for romance – and I know an awful lot about romance.

For one thing – I have read The Bridges of Madison County several times.

I know it is schmaltzy. So what? It so happens I actually LIKE goose grease!

I’ve watched numerous performances of Romeo and Juliet and I have watched John Wayne romantically slug Victor McLaglen halfway across Ireland for the sake of the beautiful Maureen O’Hara.

And I still get choked up when I watch Niles Frasier spend many seasons holding out his heart for Daphne.

My God, I still get choked up thinking about the two of them and how very long it took for them to get together.

Yup, I have to confess I am a die hard old school romantic. I believe in true love and I have absolutely no idea why I have never written a romance novel – yet.

Happy Valentine’s Day, folks!

🙂
