Science of True Love

Jacqui asks if I’ll still love her when she gets to Canada.

Well it is scientifically possible:

SCIENTISTS have discovered true love. Brain scans have proved that a small number of couples can respond with as much passion after 20 years as most people exhibit only in the first flush of love….

It goes on to list several famous and less than famous people who have kept their love alive. It’s a great list. To that list, I would ad 2:

Jacqui’s grandparents.

Food Poisoning

I can’t believe it.

The second time in 3 days, from eating the exact same source of food.*

Action, Happiness and Success

This post is for a friend of mine. I’ve admired the fact she’s been active and doing things lately, physically, that I must do more too!

It’s hard to believe Jacqui will be here.

I’m looking forward to it. We’ll have to go to the beach together. Again.
