My mother and I started scrolling through hers after splitting a bottle of wine at dinner, and I found myself laughing uncontrollably, loving her so much -- amazed at the bizarre and simple randomness of everything she has written down. All the things she wants to remember to never forget.
Some are lists: names, places, things to do. Other notes are quotes from authors -- Tennessee Williams, Sartre, Kafka. And some are just a single term, with zero context. Asian carp.
Reading someone's notes is better than a diary. I don't think I've ever known my mom better.
No notes have been harmed in the making of this blog post.
