The other night Bossy and her husband were watching a movie about a man who leaves his pregnant fiancée at the altar only to decide many years later he made a terrible mistake and so he tries to win her back but that’s not what this post is about although sister mercy wouldn’t it be so much better if it were?
In one of the opening scenes of the movie, the lead character walks past a wall:
Bossy was instantly drawn to the graffiti. “That’s great. I love you but…” Bossy said as she reached under her arse for the remote so she could rewind the scene again.
“That would make a fun Ten-Word Tuesday,” Bossy’s husband said, where fun equals Really? You sure you want to make the case for divorce court, Bossy’s husband?
Bossy can sum up her reaction to her husband’s Ten-Word Tuesday suggestion in this way: Bossy won’t touch this one with a ten-foot pole. You?
Regardless of Bossy’s trepidation, today’s Ten-Word Challenge it will be. In exactly ten words, can you fill in the blank which follows, “I love you but…”
And be sure to check back later today for the buttiest comments on the web.
If you missed last week’s challenge, click here to read Bossy’s council’s take on the various parents of their childhood friends. It’s one of Bossy’s favorite Ten-Word challenges because the responses paint such incredible pictures.

Is it just me, or is that “I love you but …” on the wall in the movie totally fake-looking like it was photoshopped into the scene?? I know, possibly am missing point. But it bugs me.
