Thank you dear Webster's 1828

DOTE, v.i.



1. To be delirious; to have the intellect impaired by age, so that the mind wanders or wavers; to be silly.
Time has made you dote, and vainly tell of arms imagined in your lonely cell.

3. To decay.

Laughing out loud! Love the word but having a bit of trouble getting why it relates to the picture. Cool shot sweetie. Please explain.

So is that a pic of you decaying......of your intellect impaired....or you imagining yourself in a lonely cell? :)
So silly. :)

I think definition #2 better fits your pic, though: to be excessively in love; to love to excess or extravagance.

Dudettes..."to have the intellect impaired by age,...".
Do you not get tired of my, Rhonda your pal, forgetting and or loosing track and or brain freezing on you a zillion times a day?

My mind wanders and wavers and I am silly am I not?????


Though I was being a bit sarcastic due to the stage of life thing...the def defines me well I think.
