You'r...Jim,<BR/><BR/>Don't ever ever call yourself mediocre. You're great! But I know what you mean about the difficulties of what you can and can't write about. It's a tough line to walk -- I've ruined a few relationships over it. But I've also been on the other side of it (being written about) which I've always enjoyed even though I've had bulimia, an abortion, and been reduced by five inches (only the last one bothered me!) among other fictional tragedies. I can see the first two, but come on, can't I at least be 5'5? Happy writing always, mMichelle's Spellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15769666862403600253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25133444.post-1152047191757438252006-07-04T17:06:00.000-04:002006-07-04T17:06:00.000-04:00You got that right, Michelle, about incriminating ...You got that right, Michelle, about incriminating folks.

All I ...Hey Jim,<BR/><BR/>No married bashing here, I promise! All I meant by the comment was that most of my married friends joke about waiting for their single friends to come around with the inherent drama to liven up a party, the kind of crazy stories that accompany the tragedy that is dating. I would write more about parties that married people I know have thrown, but much of that material involves incriminating facts that I have been told to never tell! Anyway, the parties you describe sound lovely and here's to happy people, married and single, and even better drinks!

No. Michelle, as I recall from once being single, the parties you describe in your blog are for ALL SINGLE PEOPLE. Why else would there be such anticipation? Such hope? Everyone's trying to meet someone. I'm not bashing being single, and I hope you're not bashing being married. Your friend, Jim.JR's Thumbprintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10479324326541901987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25133444.post-1152017797081672422006-07-04T08:56:00.000-04:002006-07-04T08:56:00.000-04:00Hey Jim,Are you kidding?

Because we're all married and not waiting for some new person to appear and entertain us. If, by chance, someone new does show, they're included in the conversations.<BR/> --JimJR's Thumbprintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10479324326541901987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25133444.post-1151965381368563662006-07-03T18:23:00.000-04:002006-07-03T18:23:00.000-04:00Good irony, Jim.
