"Once we were one person and always it will be a little that way."
~ F. Scott Fitzgerald to Zelda

First off, this is not a real update, just an excerpt of something that I have written in my actual pen and paper journal.  Amanda (digame ) was showing me a book on her Amazon wish list yesterday which was a  book of love letters between F. Scott Fitzgerald

One can never be too self-indulgent (or fluffy) sometimes. I really dig the excerpt. I had to read it again, because I thought you were taking it from F. Scott Fitzgerald's book.

Oh, and by the way, Band of Horses...awesome band. :)

Thanks, Charles. I just felt like I had to get it out of that little journal! It was so stuffy in there :) I'm sure Fitzgerald's letters are way more crafty and well-written than anything I could ever come up with. He's one of my great heroes.

Also, Band of Horses.. maybe one of my favorite bands in the whole entire world. I was saying the other day that "I Go To The Barn Because I Like The..." is my idea of the perfect love song. <3

Hope you're well, I admittedly haven't checked my LJ friends page in WAY too long. I need to get all caught-up on everyone again soon. Nice hearing from you-- it reminded me of the old days of 100 words ;)

I'll admit that I am pretty bad at reading my friends' LJs too, but I do breeze through it on occasion to see if I have missed anything interesting (like digame's journal).

It's funny, but when I was reading your journal I was wondering how long I've known you. Can you believe that it has been almost five years? Pretty amazing. :)

oh I think it's been longer than that even! Remember, I was peepotsally before I was abrandnewsky. my old journal resides somewhere in LJ land still :)

And yes, digame and alfykins are always the first I read when I log on!
