Another post from the radio.
Sorry, we've been driving all over, so I've been listening to the radio a lot...
From Eric Clapton's Bell Bottom Blues:
"And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms."
What?! Please don't! I'm sure he meant it to be romantic, but can you imagine a WORSE thing to wake up to? What was he thinking?
If I wrote it, it would go like this:
"And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in a hospital or other institutional setting so that you will be spared the clean up..."
Subsequent verses would explain how he would have updated his will recently and that accessing the life insurance policy should be no problem. Also, that he fixed up the house so there shouldn't be any major repairs in the first couple of years after his death.
Romance has its place, but I'm a practical gal.
.*.*.
