Had a major vertigo episode this morning, which prompted me to think of this movie.
Dizziness grips him––
fear and longing twist his heart ...
past the ledge, she falls.

dabbe @lil1inblue No, they aren't. Reminds me of a college bender ... or two. TY! 🥴😅😊 6d
TheBookHippie Blech I hate those. 🫣😵💫 6d
Mollyanna Oh no! Hope you are feeling better. Great movie 🎥 Kim Novak was phenomenal in it. 6d
Butterfinger On one hand, I hate that you had a spell. On the other hand, shout-out to Jimmy Stewart. Funny story @JenlovesJT47 I couldn't think of a password this morning, got really frustrated, and someone yelled out, "It has to deal with Jimmy Stewart." Even Butterfinger, my username. His favorite candy bar. 6d
JenlovesJT47 @Butterfinger oh that‘s awesome!! I‘ve been a huge Old Hollywood fan since I was 18 and he‘s always been one of my favorites. It‘s A Wonderful Life is my favorite Christmas movie by far. I haven‘t actually watched Vertigo in years but Denise has inspired me! Have you read his book of poetry? It‘s so sweet and so Jimmy lol.![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
Jimmy Stewart and His Poems 6d
Jimmy Stewart and His PoemsCBee We all know you just had too many beverages for your birthday yesterday, Denise 😂😂😂 @dabbe (all joking aside, vertigo can kiss my grits) 6d
Susanita I hope you‘re feeling better. 6d
Mimi28 Happy belated birthday!! I hope you feel better soon!! I will be sending you something in a week or so I promise. If you want to write me first that would be awesome 😎 without the list I have to find all my letters. Please don‘t be mad or upset with me 🥲 6d
Butterfinger Oh yes. It was a Christmas present one year. @JenlovesJT47 6d
JenlovesJT47 @Butterfinger of course! Sounds like my slight obsession with William Holden and Cary Grant 😍🤓😬 6d
Amiable Ugh! I feel your pain. Literally. I‘ve had vertigo episodes so severe I ended up in the ER. I will go to great lengths to avoid triggering an episode. Hope you are on solid ground ASAP! 6d
AnnCrystal 🙏🏼🐝 Hope you're all better now 🙏🏼💝. 6d
MemoirsForMe Great haiku and movie! Hope you‘re feeling better ❤️ 6d
dabbe @Mimi28 TY! I just emailed you the last list I had. 🩵💙🩵 6d
dabbe @TheBookHippie Vertigo or college benders? 😂 6d
dabbe @Mollyanna TY; I am. She was phenomenal, wasn't she? 😍 6d
dabbe @Butterfinger I had no idea that's why you had your handle! How cool is that? I adore Jimmy Stewart. And @JenlovesJT47, I saw him live on the Johnny Carson show reciting some of his poems from that very book! I must have been 7-8 years old! My favorite movie of his is ANOTHER THIN MAN; he was so good in that one! 😍 6d
dabbe @CBee Who, me? 😌 Yeah, vertigo totally sucks. I'm doing better now, though. 😍 6d
dabbe @Susanita TY; I am. 😍 6d
dabbe @Amiable OMG, I can't imagine. I think we talked about this once before. It totally sucks. I just forget sometimes to move slowly. I whipped my head down to scruff it up with some hair goo, and boy, did I pay for that! I'm doing better now, though. 😍 6d
dabbe @AnnCrystal TY; I'm doing better. 😍 6d
dabbe @MemoirsForMe TY; I am. 😍 6d
JenlovesJT47 Ooh yes I love the Thin Man movies! Nick & Nora are the best! And it was great seeing Jimmy go against type in that one. He‘s such an adorable yet sexy boy next door in his younger years. If you haven‘t seen it you have to watch The Shop Around The Corner around Christmastime. Such a great movie! ♥️ 6d
Cuilin Oh vertigo sucks!! Both my parents and myself have it. Hope today is a better day. 6d
TheBookHippie @dabbe vertigo… I loathe it. I didn‘t drink alcohol until my later grownup years. 6d
julieclair I‘m amazed that, while suffering vertigo, you were still able to haiku about it. How??? Glad you‘re feeling more stable now. 💙 5d
dabbe @JenlovesJT47 LOVE that one! Way better than YOU'VE GOT MAIL IMHO. That and IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE = #jimmyfortheholidays 🎄 5d
dabbe @Cuilin TY; I am doing better today. Have to remind myself to move head slowly! 😍 5d
dabbe @TheBookHippie Boy, wish I could say the same. My college years were quite something. 🥴 5d
dabbe @julieclair Oh, I wrote the haiku hours later, after the vertigo had settled down. 💙 5d
TheBookHippie @dabbe helps to be poor & on your own & working three jobs and protesting & funerals 😭 I was at the clubs -I was just generally the driver 🤣🤷🏻♀️ let‘s be real I‘m stubborn and I‘ll be damned if anything controls me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😵💫😵💫😵💫 5d
dabbe @TheBookHippie I could have used your resolve back then. 😂 I didn't have much $$ either. That's why we usually went to a place called Dirtbags (still in business) where you could get 50-cent kamikaze shots. Need I say more? 😵💫😵💫😵💫 5d
JenlovesJT47 Yes I agree!! IAWL is my favorite Christmas movie! You must track down the colorized version, it is so well done. ♥️ 5d
dabbe @JenlovesJT47 Will do! 💙 5d
Mimi28 Thanks!! Glad you are feeling better 🩷I am sending you something Tuesday 😊🫶🏽🩷😎 5d
dabbe @Mimi28 😘😍😘 5d
