Kate, who falls for a lot of handsome celebrities from time to time, like George Clooney, Jimmy Buffett, Andy Samborg (?), etc., told me last night that she has a 'thing' for Eli Manning. Well, stand in line, little, girl, I read this afternoon that he is engaged to his college sweetheart.
Of course, I had a thing, at one time or another, for Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, Katherine Ross, Linda Rondstadt, and others I can't remember off hand.
Fortunately, Kate's mother came and sat down in front of me in 10th grade World History. The rest has, in fact, been history. Sometimes you get lucky.
I often wonder what came first, the idol or the girlfriend. Did my thing for Cindy arise from my other thing for those dark haired actresses and singers? I know I idolized Elizabeth Taylor and Katherine Ross long before I met Cindy. But the Linda Ronstadt thing was about the same time. What's the connection?
By the wawy, we're hopeful that Cindy will regain the full use of her voice after her surgery, so maybe my little songbird will join me in the choir soon.
I wonder what causes someone to fall for someone. I also wonder how it seems that there are certain types we are drawn to. What causes that connection?
