Went to the Younger Sister’s last night (by invitation). Elder Sister was there too … and she’s started smoking again. That’s a big disappointment, but it’s ultimately up to her to quit. She went outside to smoke, which I appreciated. Between the maple trees opening this weekend, the last of the bronchitis, and my asthma…
Thereâs Living, and then thereâs Life. These days I find myself so enmeshed in the Living part of things that I lose track of Life. Itâs a forest for the trees sort of thing. When I do have time to search the forest, I sometimes find myself contemplating mortalityâs end. It isnât the sort of…
to Salamander’s humble diary “The View from Under My Rock” is TraumaMama911. For this achievement, I’m afraid there’s no prize what-so-ever, but I’ll see if I can’t fix that for the next time. Thanks to everyone for playing, and stay tuned for our next winner at level 5000.
Saw the nice hand doctor today, who confirmed what I already knew: it’s the knife for me. Surgery is scheduled for October 20th. It’ll be followed by a period of therapy, but Dr. Digits says that most of the time surgery is totally successful. It’s been a while since I’ve gotten to add a neat…
Ever hear this old chestnut? Q: What’s the difference between a surgeon and God? A: God doesn’t think he’s a surgeon. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Talk today at the lunch table in the cafeteria touched on the plight of that poor teen in North Carolina who had the mix-up with her heart-lung transplant. She was waiting on a…
No time for reflection and deep-but-meaningless entries today. I’ve unexpected company, and have to pull the Pretty Polly tour guide routine out and dust it off this afternoon. We’ve got an important visitor who’s never been in our type of facility before, and who is supposed to be auditing us. I’m supposed to give a…
Perhaps you’ve shared some of the magic by showing the unicorn to us? Lovely piece.

PS I liked the font you were experimenting with. I find microscopic punctuation a bit frustrating, too.
How nice that the shop keeper had a horn added for you! Either he really wanted to make a sale or he was a really nice guy.
Maybe you could wear it for a holiday picture and then have the picture around to remind you of the unicorn on a daily basis without having to wear it everyday.
that was a really nice thing for the shop owner to do. it’s a really pretty piece. thanks for the Gumby & Pali take a test visual. i’m sure the other students got a kick out that too.
Very cool story, lovely pin.
i know what you mean though about "collecting"…. i once had a few Opus penguin things because i loved Bloom County. Suddenly everyone assumed i was into penguins in general and you would not believe some of the things i ended up with, lol!
The peek into your heart overwhelms =*)
Your cherished unicorn has beautiful detail and the goodwill of the jeweler.
btw, where you ever 15?
;p
The thoughtfulness of the shopkeeper must have been captured in the piece.

I agree with Lilith. Great entry. I can barely remember being 15.
I laughed so hard when I read that people thought you collected unicorns!
I once had an aunt tell people that I collected music boxes simply because she thought that I needed to start collecting something. I think I got 6 or 7 music boxes that year and was completly confused as to why. Then its impossible not not get trapped because you don’t want to tell people that you don’t like thier gift, but you also don’t want them to keep buying you useless clutter.
Were not where!
Though where you were would have done too.
It’s wonderful that you’ve kept and treasured it for so long. I have little to remind me of good times from those years, and I would like once in a while something tangible to remind me of the girl that I was then.
If you ever do pass it on, be sure you find somebody worthy. 🙂
I wish I remembered being 15.
Your unicorn is beautiful and I can see he is very special, as he just exudes character 🙂
Treasures are special, so take care of him.
I am glad you survived 15!! I remember 15 very well, and it is a hard period in many peoples life.
Hugs
