soul retrieval


  • day 187: lost my writer's notebook, travel log and soul. also, my pen dried up.
  • day 188: thrown in existential crisis. vowed to never write again. bought new book and pen. get email that "mine book's been found" [german accent, imagined].
  • day 189: arrange to pick-up the book from <monica>'s mailbox.
  • day 190: book is not there
  • day 191: play it cool
  • day 192: send email and check again. no book.
  • day 193: check again, no book.
  • day 194: check again, no book.
  • day 195: give up book for dead.
  • day 196: get explanatory email. i now have the book back.


i checked to make sure she didn't graphitti the book, or tear out pages. it seems fine. then held it close to my chest since there was an unfamiliarness when it rested in my pocket.

now, i can get over my cold.

Sad! At least you found it, though.

Too bad real life doesn't have automatic backups.
