To Whom This Does Concern

Well I suppose one good comment deserves another! :)

Just thought I'd say hello and thak you for being the first person to comment on my blog. I'll be happy to return the favor, although I really haven't had much of a chance to yet. I'm really just getting started on this daily posting thing, but I've got a lot to say, so stay tuned and feel free to ask me about what I write. I'm sure I'll be inquiring about your ideas as well. Cheers Q!

it would be quite arrogant of me to presume I am this person you are refering to but my curiousity has piqued. I have enjoyed reading this and my research into William has started. I really believe that to know him is to know the hardships his race has suffered in the past at the hands of our forefathers. And so, what started out as a brief lesson in black history has turned into full blown research of epic proportions this will take a while and any writings you have would be welcome as I am doing this for you as well as myself. Finding the time where I can be alone to do this is quite troublesome though.

And yes, you are awful presumptuous...
Thank you...that's it...I was hoping for more.
You do know that the time on this site is of by three hours.

I do know it is off and it annoys me to no end.

I used to own the most fabulous book...
You still do, I haven't read it yet. I'll return it soon, promise.
Queenie said…
Promise...hmmmm...song...it is not cold outside...I still miss my fan...I should buy a new one...
Queenie said…
Do you even realize how much I miss you?
And I miss you...you have the most wonderfully expressive eyes...

I always liked it best when you rolled yours.
I should return your book soon...I haven't been to London in quite some time...

The Village Itself

Across the road from my home is an apartment building. It is made of brown brick and has three stories. It also has plenty of windows I often forget about while I go about my daily and nightly routines. I also forget my curtains are white, lacey and see-through scraps purchased from an aisle in Wal-Mart. Fifteen apartments. That may all house people with binoculars. It was the muggiest night this past summer had owned. Brenda was down for a visit and when she comes, it usually means a night spent over on my couch for her. Brenda lives in another town. It was one in the morning, no sleep to be found between the two us. We sat slouched on my front porch trying to capture the occasional breeze offered, sucking it deep into our lungs, praying it would cool us down. Our glasses of Pepsi sweated warning us how warm the drink would taste in our mouths. "Tilly! Tilly!" the shout sat our spines straight as we looked across the street to the where the sound was coming fr...

Unending Paper Chase

You check in on me when you get your break for lunchtime now. You never used to. You ask me, "Are you all right?" You breath in and out hard once through your nose, like it is a chore to even ask. It seems to me that for you everything is an obligation, even holding my hand. Everything you do doesn't feel like anything more than surveillance now. I don't want the days to end and it is getting harder to sleep at night. I am starting to feel sick, like I have the flu. I'm always cold. But I haven't eaten much lately. My stomach is filled with acid. I smile at you anyway. I write two letters a day. One to keep you smiling and one that tells of the truth, but they both look the same. You do not know that I form certain words and sentences in a way that triggers me, in a way that reminds me of what is real. It is something that I started doing in grade school for tests, so that I could easily remember the answers, and then later, so my mother would not underst...

Rosy Cheeks

My son's circle and lined wall, created with the permanent red marker, became something he liked to show-off. I guess the other kids who come here liked it, too.   I guess he wanted to show-off more. That is one of the many hypothesis I have about how the Map of Africa came to be. I just keep hoping my kid is some kind of odd little genius.  On the morning I discovered the map of Africa, I was not speechless and I could breathe. "What is this?" I demanded. And loudly. My son shrugged his shoulders. "I like it. It's nice. Took a long time." He had chipped paint off the wall. His walls are white. That morning, it was discovered his room used to be beige.   And it was starting to look like a room in an abandoned house. I thought to myself that maybe this look would be the in thing  20 years from now and he could make millions. He could be a visionary. It was a good enough excuse for me to leave the room. I used it...
