Quotable: Isn't It Romantic?

age old question: can a girl initiate a relationship? and some tips for guys on what NOT to do with your gf...

Amy: maybe...the limiting factor/party should initiate
Amy: *shrug i just don't kno how you determine that
Judy: what is the limiting factor?
Amy: well...say...jack likes jill
Amy: and jack kinda drops some hints
Amy: but jill's not feeling the same way...or she's not ready
Amy: so jack goes back to being the good guy friend
Amy: but if jill ends up liking jack...she should VERBALLY say something
Amy: she's the limiting factor
Judy: or she could just show interest
Judy: until the moment of passion
Judy: and then you don't even have to say anything!
Amy: ...i never noticed, but you're quite the romantic judy...
Judy: i'm romantic
Judy: ivan is too
Amy: i can't imagine
Judy: i hate it when he ruins our moments
Judy: by telling me i'm dumb or annoying
Judy: like when i ask him IF HE'S SO GLAD WE'RE TOGETHER
Judy: he just tells me i'm dumb
Judy: and then i'll tell him we need couples therapy
Judy: and he'll tell me to get a life

how romantic.

p.s. caveat:

Nancy: i'm not sure how i feel about your "limiting factor" theory
Nancy: what if they both don't know what's going on?
Nancy: in a situation of mutual cluelessness
Amy: then THAT SUCKS

ok. so it's not foolproof. in the case of "mutual cluelessness," one of them's got to SUCK IT UP and take a risk.

life's a gamble.

The Rainbow Connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side
Rainbows are visions but only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told and some choose to believe it
I know they're wrong, wait and see

Someday we'll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

Who said that ev'ry wish would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star
Somebody thought of that, and someone believed it
Look what it's done so far
What's so amazing that keeps us star-gazing
And what do we think we might see

Someday we'll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

All of us under its spell
We know that it's probably magic

Have you been half-asleep and have you heard voices
I've heard them calling my name
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors
The voice might be one and the same
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm s'posed to be

Someday we'll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

Judy: so you know that time we were on the freeway and we saw
gangsters
Judy: so i locked the doors?
Amy: yea
Judy: i can't do that in the prius
Judy: because when i have my key inside
Judy: it doesn't lock my door
Judy: it locks the passenger doors but not mine
Amy: AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Judy: OMG
Judy: next time i'll die
Judy: and you'll have a chance to run away
Amy: ...not if my door is locked...
Judy: o yeah. great. we're both dead.
Judy: good one prius
Judy: way to think about gangsters

All princes start as frogs
And all gentlemen as dogs
Just wait till it's plain to see
What we're growing up to be
'Cause some frogs will still be frogs
And some dogs will still be dogs

Agnostic?

talking about guys on their wedding day.

As you're standing there watching this woman walk down the aisle towards you, you're telling God, "Get me out of this!" And I don't care if you're agnostic, you will still hear God say, "Too late."

I shall never forget how I awoke from the deep sleep of exhaustion on my second night in Auschwitz -- roused by music...a violin sang a desperately sad tango...The violin wept and a part of me wept with it, but on that same day someone had a twenty-fourth birthday. That someone...completely out of reach...was my wife.

some people say that's why we have the term "heartstrings;" stringed instruments have the greatest effect on emotions.
