simply called "confessions"

For example, I've got a 17 inch zucchini in my desk.



There's a story behind that, and a reason too, but you'll have to open the new forum to find out.

heh.

For me, being neither a priest nor a policeman, most confessions would fall somewhere between boring and nauseating. Of course, there are certainly exceptions to that. Generally, to get my interest, the person has to be someone about whom I care. I don't necessarily have to like them, but I do have to care enough to want to understand them better, care enough to want to know what happens in their life, perhaps in the past, certainly in the future. I have to be invested in the person, else their confession is nothing but an anecdote and a waste of my time.

Writers do that all the time, of course, both in poetry and in prose. They usually call it fiction.

Okay, okay, so you're not interested in the story.

Let me make it up to you over dinner.

I'd make zucchini, but yanno, I do have to concede your point a bit. The only reason it wasn't diced into the salad last night was because although I know where the squash came from, the more ponderous (and nod, slightly nauseating) idea was the fact that I cannot be sure where it has been. But what I imagine is prolly much more interesting than the truth.

One must always consider the source with a gift of zucchini.

and thanks to fellow pipster adagio, for the gift from his garden and his sense of humor.



(and hey, Ronnie, it was a long night as I pulled the Friday night/Saturday morning stint on neighborhood watch. Thanks for putting up with my craziness as I bounced the halls of your forums.)
