I thought of you last night, Mike. I knew you had mentioned this Sparks guy before...didn't he do "Nights in Rodanthe"? Which I have not seen yet....Also many years ago H asked me to buy him the book "Smoke Jumper" which I think was also by Sparks, I wound up reading it myself...

Back to the point--I too was surprised that Dan watched the whole thing. It was on a cable channel with commercials, so he flipped to Sports Center on the commercials, but flipped back every time to watch the rest of the movie. And cried in front of me....it actually helped me to watch the movie to remind me the kind of love I have for Dan, and the kind I want for myself.

He is such a fool, so messed up. Doesn't he know that I would do the same for him as the husband did for his wife in the movie? I would live with him in that nursing home, even when he didn't know me anymore....actually I am sure he DOES know that about me which is why he is so conflicted....

But I want someone who will be willing to put themselves out there for ME in return........

We shall see if the story's message marinates in Dan's brain....


yep..I'm a sappy Sparks fan..Message in a bottle, Nights in Rodanthe(don't go see that BBJ, you may not be ready for that)dear John..I don't think he did smoke jumper but not for sure..True Believer, A walk to remember..the wedding..

good don't spin..anymore..ever ;\)

and your Big Bro is right again..Dan is broken beyond broke..
