    d'oh! I'm curious - what was your age when you wrote your notations? For instance, were you 18 for one set then 22 for another? I'm just curious. :)

    PS - you have great penmanship.

    I think I got the book in 1992, so there's about a 15 year span between the earliest and latest parts, with notes made in between. It's a heavily used book.

    And, thanks! Handwriting is awfully personal, so it's hard to look at your own objectively. To me, my handwriting is kind of cramped and never tidy enough. I blame lots of note taking in college for ruining my penmanship.

    You know it took me years to realize I should write in my Bible. I thought I would be struck by lighting. Now I write in all my books and love to get hold of one that someone has written in ....

    I remember being shocked and a little bit in awe when I saw one of the nuns at my school writing in her Bible. I didn't realize that was allowed! Every once in a while I find a Bible at a thrift shop that's been written in, and I always buy them.
