"Remember the last time you sifted through old photographs, daydreamt about bygone days? I don’t know about you, but I’m a sucker for nostalgia.

But does nostalgia make us feel sad and alone?

Well a series of studies published in Psychological Science reveal that sentimental thoughts actually heal loneliness

I like to remember our several Thanksgivings together. :) I always wish we could touch base on your rare trips to P-town. However, I know you always have dozens of people to see. Maybe one of these times, we can squeeze in a trip to Powell's together. I'd love to reconnect over books and coffee/tea.

I'm fond of those thanksgivings, too. Btw, there's a chance I'll be up for a whopping 3 days, right after Xmas. Still figuring out if I can afford it.
