Around My World in 55 Words

19 Jan

[Note: Link to actual events here.]

.

Love made me do it. Love made him do it.

My love for the city. His love for me.

“For you, my love, I walk today,” one sore foot sighed to the other.

And the objects of adoration glowed gently in the January sun.

Another year, another marathon, and love that’s a long walk home.

    Aunty G: Lim’ricking comes to those who seek
    And that’s what makes Aunty G unique
    Whole messages she defines
    With her a-a-b-b-a lines
    Gladdening hearts in times so bleak.

    girlonthebridge: Hey you! It was fun connecting, even though we couldn’t meet.

    rajni: Aww, thank you, Rajni!

    the snowed in girlfriend: Rename yourself. The snowed in insanely tenacious girlfriend. I can’t believe you actually delurked for two seconds to get me to view your pictures! πŸ˜›
