My people 45 x 365

The challenge: a year profiling people I have known, using a word count equal to my age. I'm taking weekends off!

Lorne (23/261)

Beware of those who use terms like “honey” and “sweetheart”. These are only endearments from the mouths of waitresses in restaurants where the menu doesn’t include foccaccia; otherwise, they’re an early warning system signaling that a missile carrying another’s name could land in the vicinity.

Yes beware of "honey", "sweetheart" and "dear" caling people.
Usually when they call me dear I exclaim..."I'm not a dear. I'm an Otter" Then I watch for their puzzled look and listen for their groans. Most never call me dear again.

I'm tempted to stop at each and every one of these portraits to let you know how I'm enjoying them, but I don't want to lose any reading time.

That's nice to hear! Are you doing this 365 (261 in my case) thing also?
