Greetings from the nappy zone
Hi Sharon! Hope hubby managed to track down hot choc and croissants - though I guess that's history now and you're in Minneapolis! Great journal, very 'walkabout', very Catcher in the Rye? Vicarious pleasure from reading it, you know I don't get out much these days (though I'm not complaining, motherhood is an adventure in itself). Hope all's well, am thinking of you. Love Sallie xx

space scandal/sacking
So I'm expecting the lowdown on the female astronaut sacking and all the rest of the iceberg behind it, when you're back. It made the news here today (Thursday). Ah now! if only you'd had a film crew with ya!

Sorry to say goodbye
Sharon, Please keep writing, ditch the hubby and get yourself into cyberspace. I expect to see a posting 'Just blown in to the Windy City' by the end of the day, or there'll be trouble! Love Jen

I spy...
Just had a peek at the spy shop - yeah, wacky! Bomber jackets for dogs, music to spy by and rearview sunglasses - how bizarre! They even do spy parties for kids, how fab is that. I should be writing my novel but it's much nicer doing some vicarious shopping with you. Sending good vibes for your Chicago week... Carolyn xx

Houston, we have a problem
Hey Sharon, sorry to hear that you're laid low with lurgy. I hope you get better soon, not for purely altruistic reasons, I am living vicariously through you, and would love to see the Rothkos (may complement the mood evoked by a flu virus?). I recommend bedrest and old movies, and you'll be trotting around Texas in no time at all, trust me, I'm a doctor.

Humid Houston
Yes, the humidity. A friend lived there for three years and had to use heaps of hair gel to prevent total frizz lift-off. On the plus side, and if you need to cool down, there's an ice-rink at one of the malls! Carolyn

Writing residencies!
...Hang on to that thought and pack me in your suitcase next time - growing older (and wiser) in a wonderfully artistic way in the mountains of NM is my lifeplan too! Okay, so you like solo travel; we can inhabit separate mountains. I have a cunning scheme to escape much of the British winters! You can tell this trip is a tonic for you, your journal writing shines with beauty and wisdom. Go Girl! xxx

Loons Annual Outing to Bream
Well, sorry I haven't replied before, Heth - couldn't find your mail address! Yeah, I think we had far too much luxury in our childhood! it's getting to the point on my trip when I'm also scraping pennies together for snacks - which is all too familiar! I haven't had a paddy over which stool I'm having the caravan yet, thrown a knife at a passer by or forgotten my cases and had to have them sent by train! But it's only a matter of time!

Sex and the Housewives
Well, my friend, Lee, is busy taping the new series while I'm away! But, no, I didn't bring any with me. Although I think I am just a little like Bree ...

A quote about camera usage...
Hi there, just had to share this quote with you from book I'm reading at moment by Jenny Diski - Skating to Antarctica. She's managed to get one of the limited places on a boat to this place to seek out whiteness: She is bemused by the bird-watchers who constantly photograph everything: 'The present experience was already in the past for them, they had skipped over time, and were seeing the world through their video lenses, as it would look when the current moment was dead and gone. Things were named and described, sentences formed, a final draft written, withouth that first-draft struggle to transform wordless impressions into language. There was no translation of world into words, just the direct commentary, cutting out all the processes that might have added up to reflection. The memoireis being created now would extst, frozen in the future as lens-framed news reports.' How bizzare that I was reading that and you were having similar thoughts on picture taking. I'm forever taking photos - there's a place for them as 'bookmarks' for the memory. Love and hugs, xxx

Perfectionism is overrated
Hey Sharon. Repairing make-up on the icy bridge in a state of euphoria while fighting the objective jet lag. It sounds sublime. Keep it coming. Jenny x
