A Luminous Halo

"Life is not a series of gig lamps symmetrically arranged; life is a luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of consciousness to the end." --Virginia Woolf

Diary February 10, 1960: I Want To Be a Dribbling Dynamo

[click to enlarge]
Dear Diary
I am thinking of joining the basketball team, but who knows what will come of it? (I want to be a Dribbling Dynamo)
Kathy, Gilda, & I have decided to start a club. It's called the Zero Club, because we've decided we don't want a name, or else not much of one.
I went with Kathy to Gilda's house this afternoon. It was lots of fun.
Cooking was fun, too. We set the table, sectioned oranges, and ate them. We learned the proper way to measure them. The girls liked my apron.
