a penpal I wish was my own

Jennifer posted the most amazing scan the other night, of someone's letter from the 80's that came into her possession. It is perfection, so well-written and made me laugh my ass off. Why can't I know more people like this in the present?
"I seem to have a hard time with friends, much less sexually involved friends. So sometimes I think in my dreams of him and other times I think he's dead."

Oh, and there's more.

  2. seriously; I was thinking the same thing, Nicole...it inspired me to type up some letters, or nearly did, as my ex-boyfriend's mother lost the cord to my electronic typewriter. ugh.
