I Have Yet To Meet A Person Whose FAVORITE MOVIE Is 'Gigli', But I HOPE To Meet Them One DAY And Give Them A Hug.

Like You And Your WOMAN Ain't Gettin' Along And You're In Love. You Can't Sleep At Nights. Your MIND Is On Her - On WHATEVER. You Know, That's The BLUES. You Can't Hug That MONEY At Night. You Can't Kiss It.

It's Funny: The One Time I Got Star-struck Was When I MET Snoop Dogg. I Gave Him A HUG And Said, 'I Love You, MAN.'

I Have A Really Hard TIME Watching My Sister Act In ANYTHING But Especially Anything Where It's A Strong Emotion. Whether She's Crying Or She's Angry Or She's - Whatever Emotion She's Feeling I Actually THINK That She's Feeling It And I WANT To Hug Her And MAKE It All Better.

If I'm In The AIRPORT, People Will Come Up And Just Hug Me Because They Feel Like They Can - And That's The GREATEST. They Just WANT To Hug Because Some Place, Some MEMORY In Their Lives, I Meant Something To Them.

The Nature Of Most Covid-19 Deaths, In Hospital Or A CARE HOME Away From FAMILY And Friends, Has Made It Worse For The People They Leave Behind. In The Absence Of The Traditional Rites And RITUALS Of Funeral And Mourning - The Opportunity To Just Share A Hug - The Process Of Bereavement Has Been Made Even Harder To Bear.

Seattle Is A Place I've Lived Only A Couple Of Years, But I Feel LIKE I've Been Adopted By This City. It's Like A Hug. I've Been Recognized On Planes, In The AIRPORT And By Cabdrivers. I Don't Get That ANYWHERE Else In The COUNTRY.

I Will Admit, I Once Launched Myself At Julie Garwood For A Hug, HOPING Some Of Her Magic Would Rub Off On Me... And I Have Fangirl Crushes On Susan Elizabeth Phillips, LINDA Howard, And Kresley Cole, AMONG Many OTHERS.

I Have No PROBLEM If SOMEONE WANTS To HUG Me - If I KNOW Him!

I Have A 4-year-old And A 14-year-old, And Think I Missed A Recital And A Graduation, And They Were Like 'It's OK Mommy, We'll Take Pictures.' It Was My UPSET, THOUGH... They Were Just Fine! I Just Give Them A KISS And A Hug And Let Them Know That I LOVE Them Every Day.
