1 " on marriage..."You gotta love her even when you don't feel like it. Love is a decision, not a feelin', because believe me, you won't be feelin' the love a whole lot of time. "

2 " What’s with men thinking every woman turns into elastic girl when they hit the mattress, floor, kitchen table, or any surface when their panties are removed, or worse, nudged aside? She didn’t have much experience, but she and Becca decided men had a penchant for twisting a girl into a pretzel and expecting her to enjoy her legs wrapped around her head. Oh baby, do it to me. Yeah, right. Then, to add insult to injury, literally, a man felt as if he had to bend a girl around like a Gumby doll and wouldn’t leave her alone until he’d come and she’d faked three orgasms, giving him the ego stroke necessary to break his arm while he patted himself on the back for being the world’s greatest lover.

Maybe because I fell off a ladder, tore all the tendons in my ankle, and walking on crutches means I’m effectively walking on my hands!” She held her hands out and showed him Band-Aid–covered blisters. “Want a piggyback ride?” “No. I want a cab ride.” “Aw, come on, buck up. It’s just a block and a half.” “Sure. Okay. No problem.” She took her crutch and aimed for Richie’s foot, crushing a toe under the rubber-tipped crutch and scarring the Italian brown leather. It felt good to know that she wouldn’t be the only one bucking up because she was in pain. "

8 " Go. Take care of your girlfriend. Come by for dinner sometime, and we’ll talk.” She waited for Mike as he kissed his mother good-bye and then made the rounds with her family. Papa shook Mike’s hand hard enough to make him wince. Annabelle cringed as he shook Mama’s hand. She leaned over and whispered something to Aunt Rose, who, much to Annabelle’s mortification, took Mike’s face in her hands, kissed him on both cheeks. “You’re a good boy. Everything with your job and with Annabelle will work out in time. Have faith… and make sure you got a lot of antacids. "
