Well, I've moved a lot. 37 times, if you want to include intra-city apartment switches. Point is, I learned to live free of the tons of trivial or replaceable junk that most people amass. The only consistent things I've kept lugging around with me are my music collection and an ever increasing box that contains every single letter and photo I ever

Mmmmm, blissful nostalgia, and David Bowie to boot!

I, for one, am loving the journey! *hugs*

And you just know that the Yosa folder is rather thick, and all the letters are tied with a white/black/silver ribbon.

I had no idea we had this in common.
I've moved so often, there was not room to ever collect even the important things. I have one shoebox. It has migrated from one shoebox to another shoebox around 1988. In this shoebox are mostly photos. Some of those photos are of you.

I know we have several things in common, Nissa. A love of Depeche Mode is *not* one of them, but still... ;)

I'd love to see those photos someday.

[skepticle]

well I hope you don't regret this...

Fucking awesome. That was such a good trip.

I've collected a mess of old photos from this endeavor, and scanned 'em.
I'll be posting them soon.

There's a wacky little event every few months here in Seattle called "Salon of Shame," in which folks like yourself read excerpts from teenage diaries, old love letters, bad poetry, etc. It's hiLARious. Bring some of that fine material to Seattle some time and we'll get you in. OR start your own in NYC!

we have something very much like this indeed, I forget what it's called, but don't think I haven't seriously considered goign down there with my guitar and a couple of bad songs...

Thursday's Child has far to go.

Which is about how I feel while we're doing our own version of Clean Sweep. Too many things, not enough meaning in them. I sometimes envy the people who have moved multiple times, especially from an early age - you seem so much better at deciding what things are worth keeping!

Thank You....

for carrying us all around in that box all these years....
