As adverse as I am to public displays of emotion, I think it’s about time I mention that I have a girlfriend and her name is Nadene.
I never really liked the word girlfriend, even when I was just a boy dating girls – now the word just doesn’t seem to fit at all. I always admired how Shakespeare would just invent a word if he needed one and since so many of you tell me how much I remind you of the Bard, I’ve decided to make up a new word for my relationship with Nadene. From now on I shall refer to her as my Refol.
Refol – an acronym of – Reason For Living. Feel free to use it. I’m sure it will catch on.
So I have been seeing my refol Nadene for over a year. She is beautiful, caring, funny, smart and makes me very happy. Oh yea and she bought me a months supply of really nice socks.

Who says you can’t buy love?
