I Might As Well Face It - I'm Addicted to Love

Beege Welborn

Is it spring or something? It was 39Β° in balmy Pensacola yesterday morning. So chilly, major dad was scraping frost off of Eleanor the '96 Toyota so he could see driving to work.

I mean, that felt really good. The house has stayed around 66Β° all day. Man, I tell you - my kind of weather.

So, jeez, I sure hope it doesn't come early because to me spring means summer, and I HATE frickin' summer. 

And I am asking for a good reason. 

Suspiciously, it feels like love it all around, and that's very springtime-y.

For instance, yesterday was Valentine's Day - you know, the saint who was tortured to death, and buried hastily in Rome a bazillion years ago (269 AD or thereabouts).

The good man's day makes some people giddy thinking about him. They act...well...foolishly.

As in "You FOOLS think we can't see through this?"

Seriously. Who they kidding?

That includes the current set of grifters occupying the White House. A tweet had them acting as if they were hearing Don Henley's Boys of Summer in their empty heads. All it needed was Jilly rolling around on Rehoboth Beach with the Tuber-in-Chief.

Or...maybe not.

Maybe best POTATUS keeps his shirt on. 

FOR THE CHILDREN

But the WH wants to insist the love bug still bites in those hallowed halls.

I'm figuring we're supposed to fall for it like POTATUS off a beach bike, but I tend to be hard to convince and a little unfiltered. You might even call me cynical.

Just don't call me "Shirley."

Kids. Honestly.

Jilly probably shouldn't have kept Gampy up so late at the rave. His meds wore off.

I do love the "keep him in the public eye" plan, minions. It's working great so far.

Love, love, love.

I can't get away from love stories.

Love was in the air in an Atlanta courtroom today, too, in case you've just gotten back from a desert island and missed the fuss. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been so incensed by defendants' lawyers going after her now-acknowledged boyfriend Nathan Wade, that she waded into battle to defend him and herself like Valkyrie, flashing lashes and hot pink outfit blazing righteous fire.

There were even some tender moments to pluck at emotional heartstrings. For instance, there was Ms. Willis' refusal to "emasculate a black man" - it seems that's a reference to some sort of surgery Mr. Wade has had which is unknown - or unavailable - to palefaces of the species.

Fani was feisty and combative during the questioning about her relationship with her paramour, at one time bristling with indignation when reminded about her campaign promise not to boink the help.

Au contraire, Willis said. Wade wasn't help - he was "an agent."


And so he was. And not a federal-type "agent," if you get my drift...

Hey - I wasn't the only one similarly affected by amour in the air. It's catching, you know? Like tree pollen on your car, it covers and smothers.

I feel better about that now.

Even though I know I still have to work on this...addiction...I am comforted knowing other professionals are similarly affected at this time of year.

I want you all to behave, though.

Lord knows - I've got enough to write about.

 And I love it.
