"Here's looking at you, kid" and what might get you slapped
I call everybody honey and darling. Something I've always done, but I'll stop if asked. I have a good friend who calls me "dollface" and I think it's adorable. In general, if the terms are meant for endearment and not for belittling or misogyny I'm fine with 'em.- Avalon

What Are Your Favorite VINTAGE Song Lyrics?
Annette Hanshaw, "Telling It To the Daisies": (written by Harry Warren & Joe Young, 1930) Why am I so bashful, so afraid to part With a lot of love words locked up in my heart For the want of courage foolishly I’ve tried To conceal what I reveal by a countryside Telling it to the...- Avalon

Counting Your Change...
Last trip to the Coinstar machine earned me an Israeli coin and a NYC Transit token from the 70s. lol Did get a Mercury dime back once from a vending machine, which was very cool. :)- Avalon

Why are wrinkles undesireable?
I have the beginnings of smile lines around my mouth (I have a gigantic smile! lol) and I love them. I have a few grey hairs and I adore them. I've earned every inch of what I have! My hope is that my hair becomes like my Nanny's when I'm old enough - beautiful silver around the face... -
Dressing for the Holiday / Christmas party season
Our office holiday party is very relaxed this year - in fact, we're not even leaving the office - so I'll be wearing my black suit, and switching out the jacket for a Marilyn-styled black chenille sweater (with festive pin, of course). Grant Fan, that dress is stunning! :eek:- Avalon

Woman 'more likely to remember first pair of shoes rather than first kiss' ...
Me too! lol Methinks whomever wrote this article needs their head examined. I absolutely remember my first kiss (I was fifteen and it was with Harry Stolberg), but as for shoes? [huh]- Avalon

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
Caught The Roaring Twenties off of TCM, which I really enjoyed. I'm still new to Cagney pictures, and he is truly kinetic onscreen, this coil of firepower that is barely contained by the frame. Hoping to watch either Ben Hur (1925, with Ramon Novarro) or The Younger Generation (1929, with...- Avalon

What Are You Reading
I read Jude first - it was my initiation into Hardy - and was so taken by his work that I immediately gathered whatever else of his I could. I have The Mayor of Casterbridge waiting for when I finish this one. :) He has to be one of the most jarring, intoxicating, fascinating authors I've had...- Avalon

What are you listening to?
At the risk of being pelted with tomatoes, Adam Lambert's new album. Bought it for Mom (she's a total fangirl), but am pleasantly surprised! A fun bit of dance pop fluff.
