Today’s (and What’s Looking Like It’s Going to Belong to the Days Ahead as Well) “Special”

PRELUDE TO a teensy-teensy
post
-holiday gripe:

Fear of Flying by Erica Jong? I think not. A man seriously in need of a flight attendant, is more like it. And, if things continue to go in the same direction for me as they have been, I know a certain “someone” who will be rather Desperately Seeking Susan (<--Man, I'm I a forever drifter or what? LOL!) desperately seeking a “fight” attendant.

ALLOW ME to get you to the meat of this bloggy entry by way of an extremely accommodating quote from a woman whose books I read a lot of back in the early 70s, but, d*** it! Why wasn’t I listening?!

“Bigamy is having one husband too man.
Monogamy is the same.”
–Erica Jong

LUNCHTIME Today


WAITER AT THE RESTAURANT OF MY SO-CALLED LIFE: May I please take your order, madame?
SPARKLEFARKLE: (three-times eye-balling the menu) Hm. So many things to choose from. Yikes! I can’t seem to make up my mind...
WAITER AT THE RESTAURANT OF MY SO-CALLED LIFE: (giving finger-point to a particular selection in the listing) Might I suggest the “special”?
SPARKLEFARKLE: Let’s see. (reading what’s in front of helpful waiter’s index) Mmm! Now that sounds good. Yes, I’ll have the Non-religious Celibacy. And could I get a couple dozen to-goes of that, too?

. . . . . . .


Because
HERE’S THE THING:

Realising she is but one pea in a pod,
SparkleFarkle jumps ship.

Did your love birdie podner remember to give you a Valentine present yesterday? Perchance, then, even a measely card???

SADLY, all I got for
V-day was a big bite taken out of me by the Sorry, Neither One for You Bug.

FIVE WORDS:

Has anyone seen the Bactine?

Ah! How life is filled with fun, little tests, eh?
LOL¡, !, but mostly ¿
Severely ouched
-ly,
SparkleFarkle

Rest in peace, my Mollo, ZuZu, and so-called love.

P.S. A free kitten to anyone who will link me to a St. Valentine’s Day greeting! H***, at this point, I’ll even take a get well card. Come on, who can say no to a kitten? Yes, I am truly frenzied. And, yes, I know it shows. Yeah, sue me if you have to, but just take the damn cat and leave me some love, OKAY?
