Second Time Around

I've heard it said, and sung..."Love is lovelier, the second time around"... (did that mean ME?) Well, it sounded pretty enticing, even if it didn't mean me, maybe I would feel that way...or maybe the other one would be lovelier...sounded great, the goose hung high....
I was ready ready ready..I liked the whole idea and the people singing and talking about it had such nice encouraging lyrics and concepts...the second wife gets the maid, the second wife gets it all (I could only imagine what THAT meant)...all I needed was a man who had only had ONE previous wife, not two or ten, or none...I was going to do it right this time...I hummed "Second Time Around" hopefully, and quietly if in the presence of Mr. Potentials...here I am ready to be lovelier, ready for abundance...and VERY careful not to fall or be in love with anyone else but my next...number two.
Yay, waiting...and then I noticed a flaw in my math, and theirs too...what about teensy weensy small little "lovings"...did they spoil my chances at that "second time around; second wife" offer?? How much did they count in the love karma rules?? and what if HE had some little loves between ME and his old number one?? Did it make me number five or six or worse??? I felt math and honesty were conspiring to keep me from having a maid, a convertible, not having to work, great homes at the "shore"...having it ALL...was I never going to be in love, lovelier?? It began to feel an awful lot like work ...and really hard to keep track of all those numbers, and be careful not to fall in love with the wrong horse in the race for 2nd place......so...I decided to blog for a while... and wait for a real number 2 to come around...maybe for the second time!!!
