~William Shakespeare
Let's start off with a couple of "Til Death They Do Part" stories, or "Adventures in Holy Dreadlock," that struck me as humorous.
London: A Scottish bride attacked her new husband with her stiletto shoe, hitting him in the head in an upstairs hotel room while their wedding reception was going on below. The groom staggered to the front desk clutching a bloody towel to his head and hotel personnel called the police. The bride told police she and her husband had been "accusing each other of different things" and began throwing things at each other after an argument in the room. They're still together; the bride is in counseling.
Plymouth, Michigan: A 47-year-old wife will stand trial for stabbing her 86-year-old husband wih a fork during a restaurant food fight, this despite the fact that the husband is furious that she was charged. The couple left court holding hands after her arraignment.
It's the weekend. Thank God. It was a long and tiresome week. And it's not only TGIF, but it's Friday the 13th. Yes! Bring it on. I love Friday the 13ths. It's blessedly cool, the day is young and full of potential, and I haven't a care in the world -- as long as I don't think about the neighboring Scuz From Hell and his arsenal. I ought to just take one of my discarded pillows over there and associcate him and be done with it.

| You Are A Romantic |
 You life your life like a fairy tale... or at least you try to. Living for magical moments, you believe there's only one true love for you. Love is the most important thing in your life, and you don't take it for granted. Your perfect match loves to be in love as much as you do! |

Stories of love gone bad only to be followed by the fact you are a romantic? Hello irony, I missed you =P.
Today really is the 13th then? I thought (hoped) I was wrong about that, but it appears not. OHMMMMM. OHMMMM. OHMMMM. Chants to keep the bad mojo away.
Don't pay much attention to the quiz, Kan. The damn thing's dyslexic. "You life your life like..." WTF is that?!
It really is the 13th. It's GLORIOUS. You need a better chant, though, hon. Try this one: Ohm-shakalaka, ohm-shakalaka-boom, ohm-shakalaka-ohm-boom-bam.
Firecracker, firecracker,shish-boom-bah
Bugs Bunny, Bugs Bunny, rah-rah-rah
***You Are A Realist***
When it comes to romance, you tend to take a realistic approach.
You believe that love takes time, and it's something you have to work hard for.
A bit cynical, over the top romance tends to get under your skin.
Your heart is difficult to win ... but it's totally worth it.
OMG!! I went to High School in Plymouth, MI.
You Are A Realistic Romantic
It's easy for you to get swept away by romance...
But you've done a pretty good job keeping perspective.
You're still taken in by love poems and sunsets
You just don't fall for every dreamy pick up line!
I checked twice this morning for your new post and there was nothing.
I was beginning to worry you had been kidnapped by the neighbor's from hell.
Never Ever mess with a redhead..ask Lucy.:)
tc
Why is it more legislators don't read more Shakespeare? If they didn't prevent the bad marriages, they could at least prevent the divorces. :)
"You life your life like a fairy tale... or at least you try to."
-Say WHAT?
I hope you're enjoying that front sent your way. Now where's those tropical depressions for here?
Cool. Another Buggs fan. He had such great quotes, better than the Bard. ;D
Rah-rah for the bunny. Let's don't let him hear the shish part, though. He might hear it as shish-ka-bunny-go-boom-yum-yum. It's not good to scare the bunny.:)
Realism totally rules, Roxan.:)
No kidding, TC? It's a small world, isn't it? Listen, if I'm not heard from in, like, 24 hours, then call out the militia. I may have been kidnapped and my buddy Ethel wasn't able to get me out.:)
The front is delicious, Charles. It's only in the 70s. Be careful what you wish for, though -- tropical depressions can be wicked indeed. Um, you have now put the thought in my head to look for some quotes which could be attributed to -- Shakesbunny.:-)
Wundervoll. Bring it on. I love the Bunny. One of my favorites is, "What a maroon!"
So should we call him, Buggs Bardy, or Bard Bunny?
Adventures of holy dreadlocks!! LOL! I know only one... deadlock...
I wonder when one learns to say 'enough is enough'.
Friday the 13th has always happy go lucky for me too!
I love your twisted lingustics...
& I see that you are truly a romantic! :)
tropical depressions ARE wicked...
I love the term "maroons," Charles. I use it all the time (as you might imagine). LOL. I don't know, Buggs Bard has a bit of a ring to it, don't you think?
Speaking of the Bard, keeping in mind his bawdy side, there is "another" interpretation to today's quotation which I heard once upon a time.
Hi, Mona. I think those couples might have been deadlocked in holy dreadlock. And some people NEVER learn to say enough is enough. Happy Friday the 13th you!

yp, there's just no denying it..
TGIF...thank you god!!
Long week, Leelee? You need a restful, romantic weekend of relaxation. Go for it!
I now can see the ribald meaning to which you refer, now that you have pointed it out. Buggs would never have resorted to such mechanisms.
You're right, Charles. Buggs would simply tell it like it is. Such twix are for other rabbits.:-)
86 year old dude with a 47 year old? That guy must have some serious skills or cash.
I thought that was pretty bizarre, too, T. A 47-year-old woman needs a 27-year-old man, don't you think?:-)
I don't need a quiz to tell me that I'm a pragmatist who believes in love. Ohm-shakalaka.
A loving pragmatist is nothing to sneeze at, Greeny. It's a very good combination. Ohm-shakalaka-boom-bam-ohm.:)
So are you planning a f-13 treat post?

No, I usually laugh the pick up lines in the face then say, "Oh, you were serious."
Alas, I have no treats, Camille. This was pretty much it for the 13th.:)
Seeley, that's a great come-back line! And, of course, it's only right that the quiz should peg a Romance writer as a romantic.
Serena..
I too use the term "What a Maroon"..Because I'm surrounded by them!
Would you believe that I'm a Hopeless Romantic?
...Maybe just hopeless?
Galen, apparently there are plenty of maroons to go around.:)
I want to know how you picked up the much more romantic tag "Hopeless Romantic." All I got was a plain old generic "Romantic." What are you doing that I'm not doing?
Being hopeless.....
You are much smarter than me...
Theres hope for you yet!!
But I do have fun..
(BIG SMILE)
xoxox
As long as there's hope for moi, I say laissez le bon temps rouler. Some days I maybe have too much fun.:-)
What do you call a maroon from Glasgow? a macaroon!
Sorry about that.
Friday the 13ths are always a fun day for me also. As I have no superstitious traits, I love to horrify those who are superstitious.
I dliberately walk under ladders; step on sidewalk cracks; ignore pennies on the ground; I look for black cats so they can cross my path; I wear on this day a baseball cap with large number "13" emblazoned on it.
You'd have to be seriously screwed up to stab your husband with a fork. I mean, hello? Ever heard of a steak knife?
deadlocked in dreadlock. That makes perfect sense.It happens...truly
deadlocked in dreadlock with a maroon...LOL 'Bloody' combination
I need a bloody mary....Giggle!!
SJ,
I have a question, so please don't think me stupid...
What did you change to get the text cuties said, "What?!" instead of just "Comments:"?
And which version of templates are you using?
SJ,
Never mind, I figured it out.
Ain't love grand? Not if you're on the wrong side of the fork!
you are such a romantic...blood dripping, stillettos to the head ;)
you're my kind of romantic, babe!
xx
pinks
wow isn't love grand... Does this mean I don't love my man enough because I don't want to harm him in any way. I just love him to bits
:-)
Just a thought
Annie
Mike, where'd you get your 13th cap? I want one!

The woman is apparently a mental midget, Diesel. Everybody knows knives do a better job than forks. Shoot, I've known that since I was 2.
deadlocked in dreadlock with a maroon...LOL 'Bloody' combination
I need a bloody mary....Giggle!!
Fix one for me, too, Mona. I wouldn't mind getting all giggly.:-)
Never mind, I figured it out.
Found what you needed, Charles? If you run into any other questions, just give me a yell.
Ain't love grand? Not if you're on the wrong side of the fork!
LOL, Lee. Ain't that a forkin' corker?
you're my kind of romantic, babe!
Thelma, is that you?
Love, Louise:-)
Probably saying "love him to bits" would be the wrong thing to say around those women, Annie. Something tells me they'd take it literally. And yet the men would like it. Go figure.:-)
SJ, what is wrong with your pink duck? It won't allow you to drop the bread or peanut, so he never gets fed. You're a bad pet owner. Bad, bad, bad. :)
Have a wickedly wonderful weekend, SJ. Maybe a few Bloody Marys would help. ;)
Charles, duckie won't let you feed him? I just fed him with no problem. He be okay as long as he gets the toast every few days. LOL. Bloody Marys sounds like a good deal to me. Wicked wonderful weekend to you, too.:-)
