[ scary II ]
The Halloween party we went to last night was strange
and fun and I ran into a friend from film school that I haven't seen since
graduating. We left early, but Matthew was still exhausted when we got
home.
This month's collab topic for On Display is "Where were you when?" This topic fails to
inspire me. I've written about where I was when the Challerger shuttle
blew us, when planes crashed into the world trade center, when I lost my
virginity, when I met my boyfriend, when I started my diary... The topic
of "Where were you when?" makes me feel young. I was in middle school
during the gulf war. The Beatles and JFK were long before my time. I
have a nostalgia towards eras I never experienced. The past calls to me
and I obsess again over family tree. But nothing feels monumental enough
to deserve a "Where were you when?" entry.
