Gobble Gobble. I'm bored out my pretty little mind. I'm in the middle of school right now. lol it's awesome cuz we get computers to do our school work. Right now we are learning about the eight keys of exilence...phooy. I can't spell if my life depended on it. Okay, sorry but i have to do a presentation. Bye, love you and try not to die from boredom like I :P.

Sincerely,
Eleanor Anne.

Actually, Steffee, I got released from federal prison a few months ago. Now I'm just another joe slogging it through the daily grind in another small city. I've been meaning to post some blogs about life after prison, but things are so hectic when you're fresh out of the joint that you can barely keep your head on straight.

I'd be happy to talk to you about what life was like while I was in, though. There's so much to say that it wouldn't be prudent to discuss it here. Feel free to email me if you wish. smalltownbassist@gmail.com

I'm also open to texting if you're located in the United States. Just let me know when and if you decide to email me.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It's comments like yours that make me want to keep going.

Hi Marcus,

Things are good here. I have a couple of weeks off work to study but instead I've found myself procrastinating for five days. I will get back into it! (..eventually hah)

To answer your question on transcription, yes. Your post appears on the website as a scanned copy. When it is transcribed, what is typed appears beneath your original scanned post. I tend to find posts that are handwritten catch my eye more often than the ones done by typewriter. With computers so cheap and accessible, it’s become a rarity to see anything handwritten.

I grew up in the country. I spent thirteen years living in the bush and in one of the houses; there was a golf course beside it which had about 20 kangaroos living on the green. I used to have koalas in my backyard and occasionally some giant lizards on the doorstep. I do miss that. Now I live in the outer suburbs of Melbourne. It’s quiet and the kids still play in the street but there is always the option of heading into the city. The one good thing is that in the town where I grew up, everything except the supermarket would close at about 12PM on a Saturday so if you slept in, you’d miss it all.

Congratulations on the move! I would love to send you some photos but unfortunately while I was on a plane to Sydney, I stood on my camera. So the screen is shattered and when I take photos, I don’t actually know what I’m aiming at. The pictures end up being a little more artistic than I intend.

Answers to your questions –
No. I suck at singing unless I’m drunk (then I still suck, I just care less).
It’s only just gone Spring here though you wouldn’t know it. It’s been cloudy and overcast. No different to Winter.
I cooked a vegetarian lasagne last week. It took four hours (extremely labour intensive) but it turned out amazing if I do say so myself.

You write so beautifully. And you remember so beautifully. Thank you for sharing Greg. I don't know the song BIG LOG. Ill have to look it up. Another song came to my mind as I read your post. Here are the words. you will have to make up your own tune. I don't know how to share that. Blessings...

I have a Maker
He formed my heart
Before even time began
My life was in his hands

I have a Father
He calls me His own
He'll never leave me
No matter where I go

He knows my name
He knows my every thought
He sees each tear that falls
And He hears me when I call
