personality of the tuesday...

*sigh*

I seriously have the most awesome friends on the face of the planet. Sorry, everyone else, but I really do.

Tuesday's personality is definitely D-dawg, the Winkster, who not only sends me incredible [fattening] cake recipes, but lettermail, too!

Of course, being the intellectual darling that she is, the letter was both quotable and quotefilled.

In her perfect scrawl, she green-pens a C.S. Lewis quote from Out of the Silent Planet.

'But the pleasure he must be content only to remember?'
'That is like saying, "my food I must be content to eat." A pleasure is full grown only when it is remembered. You are speaking as if the pleasure we're one thing and the memory another. It is all one thing... What you call remembering is the last pleasure. When we met, the meeting was over very shortly, it was nothing. Now it is growing something as we remember it. But we still know very little about it. What it will be when I remember it as I lie down to die - what it makes in me all my days until then - that is the real meeting. The other is only the beginning of it.'

And in her own darling way, encourages, 'Don't hesitate to jump with God into the deepest rainy-day puddles...both feet!'

I love you, D. Here's to short-term Interns and long-time friends.

Since the ice is melting [figurative and literally], I'm off to find those puddles...
