Say It Ain't So- Archie and Veronica?

Is it really Friday again? Wow that was a quick one. I hope it went went well for you all.


So did you hear the news? Archie is proposing to Veronica! Yep, Veronica and not Betty. Read more here. Look at poor Betty sniffling in the background while Veronica looks all fake surprised, but secretly smug.




Wipe those tears Betty and forget that redhead once and for all! Besides you know it won't last.


I do believe my love of romance probably came from Archie comics and the Archie/ Betty/ Veronica twisted love triangle. I would always set aside some of my allowance money and run to our little variety store every week to get the most resent Archie comic. Ugh for the Jugheads. Whoo Hoo for the Betty and Veronica double digest. It was pre-Dynasty teenage catfights, good versus evil and I was crazy for it.



I also had a secret thing for the evil Reggie. Don't we just love him with his snarky one-liners and dark good looks? That's who I say you go for Betty. Why cry over Archie when Reggie is clearly the tycoon of your dreams.



Can't wait to see how this all plays out. I have a feeling all it's not how it seems. The writer in me is coming up with tons of scenarios. I'm 10 again!


Happy Friday.



Best,
Kwana

Haven't thought about them in years! Well, I guess it's about time! I can always count on you to put a smile on my face- I know I've said it before- but so true.

After all these years, there are some things that I never knew about you and your thing for comics. It is all making perfect sense to me now. Could that have been the impetus for your foray into the glamourous world of Fashion? Inspiration comes in many forms!
You crack me up! What, it's Friday!

Archie & Vero won't last. It's all for publicity. It's like Jason & Melissa & Molly from the Bachelor all over again.

I'm an avid Archie reader back in the day. Wow! a proposal? really? I suddenly miss that gang...wonder what will happen.

And thanks for bringing back memories.

Reggie is that bad boy that we all secretly yearn for. He was sleazy but he was certainly a better alternative than Archie. I always thought Archie was a terrible wimp the way he would ping-pong between Veronica and Betty. I always loved Betty but coveted Veronica's wardrobe. By the way, aren't they still in high school after all these years, or did I miss something and they went to college while I wasn't looking?

Wow. So he chose Veronica. Honestly, I didn't see that one coming. I wonder if they'll actually make it to the altar? Stay tuned...
