The following is part of a conversation I had Sunday night in the back seat of a car as a group of us were driving back from a posh dinner. For some reason, I had Neil Diamond’s song “Heart Light” stuck in my head….
Me: (singing loudly and totally off key) “Turn on your heart light. Let it shine wherever you go. Let it make a happy glow for all the world to see…. Turn on your…”
Him: What’s a hard light?
Me: What? A hard light? What are you talking about…
Him: You’re singing “turn on your hard light”…
Me: It’s “heart light”… “turn on your heart light”… Neil Diamond. What, never heard the song?
Him: Ohh, I though you were saying “hard light”. I couldn’t figure out what that was.
A few seconds of silence.
Me: Hard light. Sounds kinda like hard on, no?
Him: Well, I wasn’t going to go there, but yes.
A few more seconds of silence.
Me: (singing loudly) “Turn on your hard on. Let it shine wherever you go. Let it make a happy glow for all the world to see”.... you know, I kinda like that version better.
Him: Figured you would.

Lol. I love your dirty sense of humor. We will fit in together pretty well. I just don't know if we will make others around us uncomfortable. I hope we do, lol.
