My great grandparents were from Vienna. It is really one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. I've been many times and for extended periods of time. I have some close friends there. Not a MAGA among them. Just go. It's amazing.

I had a second date with a guy many years ago and he came to my place to pick me up for dinner. I wasn’t quite ready so I asked him to wait in the living room. When I came out, he was on the floor snuggling with my cat. So I married him.
