"A Problem Page For All!"

Ellie Jane Barrington! My precious peacock, you are full of rubbish --

I LOVE YOUR VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really do. It's so, so, so relaxing and calm and pleasant to listen to. I'm afraid my voice isn't so easy on the ears! I'm extremely happy that I've heard your voice. Your voice isn't intimidating or whiny or stiff or unemotional or scary or anything like that. I feel so relaxed and comfortable talking to you now because I know you're not some ultra hip, super mature, intimidaing 26-year old. It feels like you're 21 or even my age (that's not an insult...maybe it sounds like one, though, huh?!).

Wow! I'm so overjoyed that you're in the process of writing me back! Caitsy is very very verrrry pleased. I find that starting a letter is the hardest part, just getting the "Hello!" on the page and starting off. By the third page I'm usually on a roll and I get really into it.

My first day at Surf was just OK. I'm really not meant for working, I think, which is awfully unfortunate because you basically have to in order to live in this world...which I find so, so annoying...I'm so lazy and timid when it comes to new situations and learning tasks. I prefer to be self-employed! Not that I ever have been, but...

I'm really rambling off now, aren't I! Thank you for your kind words, Elliebellie, and I'll try to feel like Jamie Oliver -- although I haven't been asked to cook yet, I hope I will!
