Dear Diary

I was talking to my niece Adrienne last night on the way home from work. She asked if I would will her some of my diaries so she could read things about her dad (she would also like my red refrigerator). I am flattered. I remembered I had written something about her dad in my very first diary and dug the cover-less battered book out of my crawl space tonight.

I think that is sweet that she wants your diaries because of her dad. She must be smart too, if she wants your red fridge. I love it!

Ellen, that is so funny and I'd like your red refrigerator as too.

Dear Ellen,
Tease back. But always wink.
(LOVE that she wants your diaries! What a great thing)

I really want to know what the diary said back. If I were to guess it would say, "Move out now. It will never get better. John will always be incorrigible."

That is so sweet! I think I wrote the same thing about my brothers!

Unknown said...

Dang it! She beat me to the fridge.

Ah well, with brothers just blame everything on them. That way they get in trouble ;)

You're lucky you still have your journal! My younger brothers stole mine and advertised the contents (including the name of my summer crush) to their neighborhood friends. Oh, the humiliation!
