As I began my journey exploring my sources of inspiration, a whole book began flowing from my memories. A blog meme just didn't seem the right size although if I were younger, with less life experiences, a meme would suffice. It's good computers have "edit" options! I love the bubble, Willow and am on my way to check out "All I Ever Wanted".

I find that they are more useful than a filing system. Yesterday I started writing a diary in long hand again. That was curiously satisfying in another way. Maybe because of all those essays and reports I had to write when I was at school, I find it very hard to get away from the concept of writing for someone else to read.marc aurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03811106443815434007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636364949017025470.post-58326509532173709452009-07-27T07:11:03.052-04:002009-07-27T07:11:03.052-04:00I do love the idea of ephemera on the screen!- Jay...I do love the idea of ephemera on the screen!- JayneHarnett-Hargrovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07486168670308150669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636364949017025470.post-47133958852448257862009-07-27T06:26:06.704-04:002009-07-27T06:26:06.704-04:00I don't believe the Huffington Post is a blog ...I don't believe the Huffington Post is a blog bubble but the Drudge Report is.
