Cheers

To
tacky yesterdays
and stylish tomorrows

To
the blog you created
that no one follows

To
the lover you want
that wants to be someone else's lover

To
your made up diet
which requires you to miss supper

To
the book of poems
you won't finish reading anytime soon

To
waiting for that special text
that never comes, adding to your gloom

To
that masterpiece of a story you've written
that will never leave your room

To
throwing water on love
and watching it produce gremlins

To
Marge for never leaving Homer
fairy tales only exist on the Simpsons

To
all the men who had their heart broken
and didn't end up hating women

To
the ladies that have been mistreated by men
and didn't retaliate by opening their legs, and letting anyone in

To
ignoring the obvious depression in comedians and clowns
and being strangely optimistic about future let downs

Drink up my friends!!!

I think this is cool, life isn't a dress rehearsal that's for sure...it's all about choices, and living with our mistakes.  
Waiting for a text pretty much sums it up for me, I am not going there, don't much care for that mindset.  

Life is waaaay to short!
Cheers to you too!!

Love your honesty!!

Too many "good" ones to single out any one, or even two. Well done! I'll raise a glass of cheap Californis burgundy to you in about an hour . . .
