JERRYISM #3

“I feel like we’re back to square zero.”

From Brooklyn, New York; to North Massapequa; back to Brooklyn; Brockport, New York; back to Brooklyn... To Boston, Massachusetts, where I met Jerry... To Marina del Rey, California; Washington, DC; New Haven and Guilford, Connecticut; San Diego, San Francisco, Palm Springs, and Santa Barbara, California; Las Vegas, Nevada; Irvine, California; Sevilla and then Fuengirola, Spain. And now Córdoba.

  1. Lord, can I relate to this! My husband Terry does the same thing and we call them 'Terryisms' Sometimes it's a real word, most times not. Sometimes it's maddening, most times . . oh yeah, it's always maddening.

  2. Linda: I love the fact that you have Terryisms! I'd love to read some. I'm long overdue in posting another Jerryism. So much else going on.

Please share your thoughts...
