it's our twelve-year anniversary! i reminded brenda - twelve years since we met in secondary two c, so i gave her a little anne of green gables magnet from quebec city. it's a funny thing, how literature comes back into your life here and there. i got the whole anne of green gables because of you, dionne said when i was having lunch with her near columbia uni in nyc - you gushed about it so much i went out and bought the whole set, she said - or something to this effect.

brenda and i met at thomson for a birthday catch up and i gave her a feist (number one - let it die) cd which i know she will love - you can only give music to some people, books too. everything goes with a ribbon, so i bought a red one in the afternoon to complete the wrap. time to stock up on ribbons for festive wrapping. and of course it was really nice how we sat there for several hours just catching up and wrapped up in our conversation. december date, i told her.
