it amazes me how many people thought that Newt and I have synched digestive cycles, and about the sand dollar thing.

there's a chirpy bird outside that's driving Newt to distraction.. he's peering out the window as I type, trying to figure a way to get to it.

Random American history factoid - in 1585, the first English colonists arrived in Roanoke Island, Virginia. (Now North Carolina). by 1590, all of the settlers had disappeared. The word "CROATOAN" is found carved into a tree.

Talked with my sweetheart, and now we're both off to do chores! Mmm.. she makes the day complete. :) Got to call the bro, and see if he needs any laundry done, while I'm at it.

until later, dear journal!

Don't aske me how, and don't ask me why. But, last night, I had a dream that we met, and I went to your house, and you let me play with Newton. Completely came out of nowhere.
