Shelley Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 My new avatar of "Tweety" brings back a funny story, that I thought I would share.I have always loved Tweety bird...and I had a pink shirt with a big tweety on it back in the early 80's....I was wearing it the night I met my husband...He asked me why I liked Tweety so much, and I remarked that I thought Tweety was so cute and loveable...He said...yes, its fitting.."just like you" Those words melted my heart almost 29 years ago...they still do today, and with his recent illness, makes me love him even more...first words out of his mouth after surgery and after the ventilator was removed..was..."We did it Tweety" ...I melted all over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sitting in the front of the Oceanography class at West L.A. college circa 1975. I looked at the back of the class, and here's this cute little blond and her girlfriend flying this Tweety bird back and forth- it was a leftover cake decoration. She really caught my eye, so the next day I changed my seat to the back of the class...and started a conversation about Tweety. To make a long story short, I ended up losing a grade (I went from an "A" to a "B" after I moved to the back of the class), but gained my future bride! Too funny about you and your hubby...I couldn't have imagined that Tweety would have played matchmaker more than once!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
