christa, it seems interesting the way you repeated the dialogue. i could totally see the whole scene in my head. how are you feeling today?

[christalk]

i'm feeling fine today. The day i wrote this entry, I don't remember exactly how i was feeling. When this scene happened I thought instantly of sharing it in this journal. I wanted to write something entertaining, more of an external narrative than filling it entirely with my thoughts. Basically, I was giving what Andrea and Heidi often do a try.

yeah, i was thinking it is from the first person and a total narrative and i hope you write like that more often cause i really enjoyed your language. seemed like you dug it too.
