Love is but a song to sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now

If you hear the song I sing
You will understand (listen!)
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at you command

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now

Good morning, everyone! It's a beautiful day that begins with love.
Time for a big mug of Fortum&Mason's "Royal Blend" tea the leftover babbaganoush from yesterday. Sometime I really like leftovers!

No... you call it what it is; Love.

It's amazing how fast time goes when we're together. It was great, a couple of splatters of rain but nothing we couldn't handle
If it had been Noah's 40day/40night flood you would have thought it a minor drizzle...

He brought champagne, lots of different things to eat, some candy. We just talked for (thinking and counting the hours on fingers) 7 hours straight I don't know if I'm really in love yet
You might not know. We know...

... Actually ... if you keep thinking about a guy during the day, can't stop talking about him, just glow when you're around him and can't wait to see him again ... does that mean you're in love? *sigh*
Gee, I wonder... (Would somebody please pinch this woman to wake her up!)

Quote:
There definitely was a lot of sitting close together, gazing into each other's eyes, laughing and also some touching (like having our knees touch each other).
Cough... cough...

You have. Right here in MobileRead. There are several gay people here with whom you have had very friendly conversations.

You just didn't realize that they were gay because there really isn't any difference between gay and straight people other than sexual preference. Sure, a few like to cross-dress, but most don't. And a few cross-dressers aren't gay!

Atypical in a sense that at home they don't dress any different from straight men, they don't go to gay clubs.
More typical than not... In my thirties I attended a college that had a female student population that was almost 50% gay. I made a lot of good friends (though I did curse my bad luck from time to time. Lot of times I wished I was a woman!)

Did Astra know that the rain drops could be painful? No? He does now.
As any motorcycle rider. Rain at 60kph is VERY painful!

Ah, by the way. I missed tea. After I came home, for the first three days I drunk only black teas, mostly Fortnum and Mason's Assam and blends and a bit of China black.
Excellent choice!

There was a period in my life that I was addicted to Coca Cola. Really addicted. I was pounding 40-50 cokes a day, beginning with breakfast. By 4:30 in the afternoon my head was splitting if I didn't drink another fast enough. I was running a high security protection detail at a newspaper strike location and all the caffeine and sugar was keeping me really pumped up. Fortunately for me it was an easy addiction to break... Just don't drink the first one for breakfast.

And now time for just one more mug of "Royal Blend" before I go off to today's chores!
