"On the bright side, I won."
Feb. 14th, 2003 09:34 amAnd now a couple of quotes on love that struck me as quite funny and fitting for the day:
Frasier "I remember a time back in Boston when I was going through exactly what
you're going through. Just a week later, I met a lovely barmaid, sophisticated
if a bit loquacious. We fell madly in love, we got engaged... of course, she
left me standing at the altar but the point is, I didn't give up! I took my
poor battered heart and offered it to Lilith! Who put it in her little
Cuisinart and hit the 'puree' button... I rebounded, and look how far I've
come! I'm divorced, lonely, and living with my father." [Takes Daphne's
cigarette]
Roz "You look like you've been ridden hard and put away wet!"
Frasier "I was up to all hours of the night competing with Daphne to see which
of us had the more pathetic love life. On the bright side, I won."
Frasier "Dad, there was a time after my first marriage was breaking up. I was
talking to Mom. She said to me, 'Frasier, you've gotta promise me you're not
going to give up.' I said 'Mom, please, the last thing I want to hear is a
bunch of clichés and that we're all put on the earth to love each other, and
how it's certainly possible for the human heart to love more than one person.'
I said, 'All right, Mom, give me one good reason to ever let myself fall in
love again'. She said, 'Because I said so and I'm your mother!'"
Came into work today to find a little pot of roses on my desk from a certain
cyranocyrano unless I miss my guess. He got me living flowers that I can plant out in my garden. I'm going to be grinning in a rather silly fashion all day.
And...I...I..uh...speech..failing...
MY GOD THE BOY'S ONLY 14?!
If there's a level of hell reserved for dirty old ladies then I'm certainly going there, but what a great V-day gift!
( Dance blathering ahead )
On a slightly poltical note, it looks like I'm going to need to start tuning into Hardball. Usually I can't stand Chris Matthews, but as the only cable host (and usually the biggest Republican flag-waver of them all) to actually be openly opposing the war with Iraq. And the man even approves of Hillary Clinton? Yeah, I think I need to start watching this.
In fact I think I need to start watching, listening to, reading up more on the political state of the world today. That's my goal for the next few weeks, education. So if folks have interesting, thought-provoking links to articles or interviews on either side of the debate, please feel free to share them!
That is all, except to say, Happy Cupid's Day!
