A Little Fountain Pen Story

This is something I jotted down while on the phone long-distance with Mama on August 23, 2003. I pasted it into my paper journal; but as far as I can tell, I didn't post it in my LiveJournal (now in the archives here at InsaneJournal) or in CM's Diary. Here it is:

When Mama was little (early 1920's), her parents bought her a fountain pen. She said it was a Parker, and it was black, and she wore it around her neck [chain? ribbon? she didn't say]. Her parents forbade her to take it to school because they were afraid she would lose it. However, one day she took it anyway! When she got home, the TOP/cap was still around her neck; but the bottom had somehow come undone and fallen out! Mama and/or her parents did manage to find it in a dirty yard/lot several blocks away...and she was NEVER allowed to take it out of the house again!

The End.

I wrote Mama a snail-mail letter, asking her for more details; but if she provided them, I don't know where the letter is. :-/

Dr. Horrible

I've only watched snippets so far, but you can see this free through midnight tomorrow night. After that you can download for a small fee (I already bought from iTunes). But who could resist Nathan Fillion--singing?!

Whoa, no Twitters at ALL

Okay, LoudTwitter is really on the fritz. I'll have to go get them and paste them in myself:
