The Queen Mum Lives

there was a little girl named Mindi….

…and she dreamed of meeting The One

…and she thought that she met him at the age of 19

…And The One didn’t love her the way that she thought that she loved him

…And Mindi made a fool of herself chasing after him

…And The One was amused, but remained very good friends with Mindi.  One of her Best Friends, actually.

…And Mindi and The One fell out of touch for 2 years

…And Mindi and The One reunited in great friendship and in a few nights of Hot Sweaty (and REALLY good) sex

…And The One moved away without telling Mindi

…And Mindi was heartbroken

…And 12 years went by during which  Mindi met the man who would become her husband

…And The One made contact and Mindi went out for a drink with him after she had been married several years

…And The One was now well-off and Mindi felt those old feelings coming back.  And Mindi started thinking about “better dealing” her husband.

…And Mindi continued to talk to The One via phone and email for several years, with the occasional meeting for a drink (with the knowledge of her husband)

….And the more Mindi talked to a grown-up The One, the more she realized something

She was already married to The Real One.

And that is the story of how I finally grew up.
