A NOTEBOOK: A SMALL BOOK OF BOUND PAGES, OFTEN RULED, USED FOR PURPOSES SUCH AS RECORDING NOTES OR MEMORANDA, WRITING, DRAWING OR SCRAPBOOKING. I LOVE NOTEBOOKS. I LOVE THEIR FEEL, THEIR SMELL, THE COUNTLESS POSSIBILITIES THAT THE BLANK PAGES HOLD, LIMITED ONLY BY THE ONE HOLDING THE PEN.
I LIKE TO THINK OF MYSELF AS A NOTEBOOK. SOME PAGES TORN OUT. THE EDGES WORN. A NOTEBOOK HANDLED FROM BIRTH TILL NOW. LIKE A CHILD STARING INTO THE SMALL YET EPIC STRETCH OF SPACE HANGING OVER THEIR BACKYARD, I STARE IN EXCITEMENT AT THE ROLLING BLANK PAGES BEFORE ME. THE WORDS CONNECTED INTO SENTENCES THEN WEAVED INTO A TAPESTRY OF ME.
A COLLECTION OF THOUGHTS AND IDEAS WAITING TO BE SHARED AND EXPLORED.
ON A GOOD DAY I TAKE PROBIOTICS EVERY MORNING AND MOISTURIZE MY LEGS. ON A BAD DAY I WRITE LONG POETIC ABSTRACT PROSE COMPARING MYSELF TO A NOTEBOOK. SORRY ABOUT THAT.
