'Jake' ushers me into my Carlsberg Years
.1.T just celebrated her birthday and has officially become the first of us girls to enter our Carlsberg Years.
.2. Speaking of which, I am starting to notice a change in my own life as I approach the official entry in to…
For example, saw ‘Must Love Dogs’ and noticed something. It was called ‘Jake’.
Found myself mysteriously and tremendously drawn to the character. Do believe it has everything to do with the fact that his lines very nearly made me collapse a lung.
Erm. Think I should be wooed by the scriptwriter rather than the character?
Perhaps; but only if the writer is 6'something", with a circle for a mouth and is at his sexiest with floppy hair and in an inviting sweater.
Aside: If a man can make me laugh hysterically, they are halfway to ensuring shall hide around corners and follow them about (with a toothbrush & a lamp…because you just never know).
Just kidding.
Not really.
Well, ok, I am.
(Anyway, Jake = John I-too-would-force-him-to-pull-over-and-let-me-drive-and-have-I-mentioned-he-can-wear-the-shit-out-of-a-sweater? Cusack.)
.3. In the film ‘Must Love Dogs’ aforementioned Fox meets Diane Lane via on-line dating. We were discussing what we would place as our…handle...call sign...that one-liner that’s supposed to get men’s (in my case, anyway) attention.
I said mine would read: “Daddy?”
No one thought that was remotely funny.
I, on the other hand, am still laughing...and people on the street are starting to stare.

Hi. Clint here from Montana. Just surfed into your blog through the positive review on Google Blog search. I read your critique on soul mate or the one or i'll die if he leaves connection we search for and find if we recognize any of those who cross our path. From the time I was really young I was aware of my blond dream girl. In my life, I started looking for her at age12 or 13, whenever. Of course we met up, I fell hopelessly in love, she married the other guy, and I have never been the same. One summer I saw variations of her blond hair and fair complexion represented by the fair sex in various communities all over eastern Montana. It was like she was everywhere but nowhere, available, but not for me, a memory that had past with this wonderful reminder. I took a ten day holiday to the Pilipines whilst working in Oman a few years ago. On my final day, I went into the Superstar club and there she was. A Pilipina lady who blew me down. We were dancing above our bodies, our spirits enmeshed with no regard for reality. I tore myself away and got on the airplane, never to see or know her again. Back in Oman, whilst I was driving, I went out of body, my spirit wanting her so. Two loves in a life is tonic for the soul. The topper is to live each day with that divine pleasure. Some have done that, some never have. Just a note to you that you have to get out and see some country to have a chance for this moment. There is the story of the Japanese lady who visited all of Asia searching and searching. She went to Kasmir, found her man, married him, and stayed there. Scratch that itch.
Regards,
Clint
