futurebird's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ray Bradbury Men? I�m trying not to throw the damn thing away. I�ve been told so many times that self examination, facing, preserving your past is important. Besides, we were all young once-- Right? Am I too concerned with my image to admit that I ever had childish thoughts? Why, I bet I�m having childish thoughts RIGHT NOW and I don�t even know it. It�s an old journal the kind with a lock begging to be picked with a hair pin. It�s from the 1980s so the outside is covered with a intensely ugly, enthusiastic geometric patterns. I think it cost $1.50. The paper thin pages contain such gems as: ON A CRUSH ON AN ENGLISH TEACHER: Okay, maybe it�s a good thing I didn�t burn it. These themes are still in my life, in a way it�s a good thing to know that it�s all not a host of random recent developments. So now I wish that I�d kept a journal when I was even younger. When and why did my ridiculous, impossible personality start to form? I still can�t remember what a �Ray Bradbury Man� is supposed to be like, either. 17:19:14 - 2000-12-28 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
