So. She did some planning today for the novel She's going to write and attribute to me. I have to admit She hit the nail on the head for some things--specifically, what on earth will I do now that I've wandered into polite society? In fact, how long can polite society simply ignore the polar bear in the room? Well, in a room with white walls, quite a while, it appears. Actually, that was the easy part, but She's finally begun to realize all the challenges I've had to deal with just to pursue my dream. And I'm reminded how dependent upon others I was to get this far. Humbling.
