Sylvia and I are reading Lloyd Alexander's Book of Three together now -- her favorite character is Gurgi, who she associates with saying "I want the small one for crunchings and munchings". -- Today she noticed that Gurgi says "Gurgi" instead of "I" or "me", like Elmo does. So "Elmo and Gurgi should get married. Gurgi's a boy, and Elmo's a girl. -- No, Elmo's a boy. But they can still get married. It will be a boy family and no girls allowed." Talking with Ed the other night, he said he felt like Alexander's books had screwed him up as a child by making him think he had a destiny to fulfill -- so he would be continually judging his life rather than just taking things as they come.
