I have every letter, every birthday card since I was 15. It's a sickness. I can't throw them away.
Brad--I have tons of pencil-smudged letters with Type-O Negative lyrics in the margins. Jon I have notes from you with random gibberish :), I have letters Derek Wamsley wrote me on his mission, all Nate's notes from HS. Narissa--your notes too!
It was a bizarre time warp.
What was really sad though is that for the last 11 years most correspondence between my husband and I says something along the lines of "I know money's tight right now but..." Or "things are hard right now, but I know they'll get better."
Over a decade of waiting out crisis after crisis--it really has turned my hair gray.
But what's funny is that my hair is dyed red right now--so with my red and gray I look a bit like Rogue from the X-Men. I think I may join the X-men. Then when times get tough I can just destroy people by taking off a glove. Woo-ha-ha!
I have my discharge papers from the hospital when I had Rhiannon. I have the paperwork with the positive pregnancy test from the doctor's office. I have EVERYTHING!
Ok. Time to put a lid on this letter box.
