Tell me all about it, dear...

As far as not having a past, and feeling like you're the imaginary one, I'm right there with you. I think it's healthy that you want to start connecting to your childhood. I was all about tradition when I was a kid, too. I think it was the product of not being able to rely on anything. I'm so sorry about your spoiled holiday plans, Love. I've long given up on being traditional. Thanksgiving is not a holiday for vegans. I don't do Christmas for reasons that are far too complex to explain in one blog comment. I think we should Skype sometime. I realized that the reason I haven't made this whole visit thing happen is because I'm just too intimidated by the face-to-face after all of this time. Maybe I just need to ease into it. What do you think?

Bah - You're real, I've hugged you. I can however appreciate the appeal of the sentimental things. I've got a wheelbarrow load of them. As for turkey day, the kid is with his dad ... do you need me to blow off my siblings and come tell you how wonderful your cooking is? :)

I wish I were close enough to give you a real hug, in person. You've been marginalized your entire life. It's unconscionable that your sister collected the few things from your childhood that mattered to you. If nothing else, maybe you could offer to take the pictures and scan them to your computer - and if you happened to get a copy made at the local Walgreens, who could blame you?

And you are?
