Rumpolephoreskin's Existential Wanderings in and Around Negril

[Rum-polephoreskin]

Day 7 cont . . .

Should a person even get married in this crazy world? I don't have an answer for that. I've known Mrs. Peel since '94. I've gone out with her since '08. Between 98-08 I thought of her every day. Most of the time I didn't want to but my brain just found that channel. I'm not suggesting I can't change channels if I want but sometimes no matter how bad it hurt I'd rerun those old shows. We've been together for four years now and she still lights my fuse. The possibility of other women have been blotted from my brain. So when Presley was in back cooking I asked her about the salt water.



"Do you think you could get used to salt water?"

"I think so."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah, let's go back out tomorrow."

I got down on my knee (before Presley could come back) and asked her to marry me.
