THE BEST WAY TO SAY IT 2017

BROKEN

Plagued by a persistent toothache since last Sunday.  I finally checked in with the dentist on Wednesday afternoon after the painkillers stopped working.  Was ushered into root canal procedure today.  

Feeling old, tired and battered.  

AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT - A LOVE STORY

"Remember I love you," I say. 

"I can never forget you for a moment," he says. "We're not two people but one. You're the raison d'être for my heartbeat, darling. I love you for e-ter-ni-ty." 

When I reach home several hours later I call him. I want to tell him I've arrived safely but he's forgotten I was there. 

"When are you coming?" he says. "Please come at the speed of light!" 

"I just got home from you," I say. 

"Oh really? Well, come at dawn then…"
