Wife and I up at three talking about fifty-two years worth, reheating coffee and love. I decided to write a letter to my sister in cursive and with a fountain pen - we don't do that anymore, do we? What a challenge! Like brush painting your messages across the cyberspaces of modern communications since the abacus is still used, are the brushes and ink stones? The first attempt becomes a draft, as I discover how many muscles are engaged and how quickly I tire from the page I finally finish.
I once had a good hand. see envelope from 1969.
Cursive is the new secret code... And I doubt most people write one 'actual' letter a year...
