My American Notebooks

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

When Nathaniel Hawthorne was writing, he kept a series of journals, The American Notebooks. They were part daily journal, part diary, but mostly a place for him to jot down and try out bits of writing he hadn't a full venue for yet. He kept character sketches, odd bits of conversation, and observances he wanted to remember for future writings in his notebooks. This, then, is my place for odd bits I want to remember. When you read this, keep in mind, you are rummaging through my mental storehouse.

WOW, what a great time of year to go, and what a great gift to each other!!

It is amusing, however, that you travelled to Hawaii for spam and eggs!

It sounds and looks like Paradise to me, particularly at this time of year.

I think if I were there I wouldn't bother returning until well after all the hype...say around April sometime. Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Firefly is the most awesome show in the history of ever. Just saying.

So sorry, and so glad you have practical and emotional support! Xena! Hercules! Yes, I watched those with my son, too!

Yikes. I used to work with a little girl diagnosed with a condition called alternating hemiplegia of childhood. I was around a couple times when she episodes, so I have an idea of what can happen, and I'm just really sorry you're going through this, but glad you're not going through it alone. Joss is good therapy. Tony and I are able to have entire conversations by just quoting Firefly back and forth.

So sorry to read your health is still under threat and will send out oodles of good vibes for a rapid and full recovery. I hope the professionals are investigating your symptoms and find appropriate treatment.

I hate being ill too but your time with Monilad is precious and doing you both good. Go with the flow for the moment and try to accept being waited on.

Damn! That would've scared the crap out of me. I'm impressed you didn't wreck the car. I surely would have. I really hope things take a turn for the better soon.
