My children constantly tell me that I was born 100 years too late.<br /><br />I designed and built a house to look old, and when it came time to lay down the antique heart pine floors, I told my contractor not to put in too many nails. I wanted it to squeak. You should have seen the look of incredulity he gave me. I got a lot of those during the six months it took to build. But I knew what would make me happy, and it does ever so much.debbie baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02479699000203333679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-44660388966290888242011-10-05T23:08:31.959-07:002011-10-05T23:08:31.959-07:00Loved this and your blog.

I would normally cringe or have a vein twitch when someone associates me with the word 'romantic'... but if you put being 'romantic' in a manner that you just listed above; then I don't mind being one at all :D <br /><br />I suppose the idea of being romantic evolves over time. The side of romanticism that I dislike is the part about falling in love and giving up everything for one person or believing love-at-first-sight. Having strong feminist inclinations and being around alpha female figures like my mum and my aunts, I was never one to be the damsel-in-distress.<br /><br />What I love with the author's elaboration on being a 21st century romantic is it focus on the lifestyle and one's view in life--what makes us feel at home in this turbulent and increasingly stressful world. It is not just about love life anymore (thank God!); but being productive and self-sufficient and of course, in a romantic relationship with the quaint and essential joys in life.<br /><br />:D<br />A lot of the things applied to me (though I would prefer to have tea instead of coffee). The part about the dressing gown is especially true with me (as I'm wearing one right now). <br /><br />This was so nice. I wonder what she's going to come up with next time? /though if it's about classic English Literature I won't be able to relate too much (I know more about Japanese literature)/ :)Juchinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01748497538466058371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-9372163478619855492011-10-05T08:49:42.406-07:002011-10-05T08:49:42.406-07:00100% Romantic.
