the container!


When I think about the toys, clothes, furniture, the magical blanket, and even memories, there's one object that lasted the longest and it's still going. The diaper container / which is now my laundry basket. This has been with me my entire life. Only my parents can beat this. I remember sitting in this while I watched TV, I'd put my ass in it and sink, and it was comfortable. I remember later using it as a kicking dummy. Filled with clothes, it was something I'd kick around and see where all of the clothes would go flying. Then I remember playing with Hot wheels on/in it, when it was empty.

The rabbit graphic is perfect, I wonder who made this. It has miles, has traveled a little, and has kept my dirty clothes dirty before wash time. I don't know what made me look at this today and remember things about it, but I'm sure more will come.

Again your blog entry was able to elicit similar feelings in me, in particular objects associated with my childhood that are squirreled away in my memory.

I wonder if all this reminiscing is a consequence of many of us entering the middle phase of life.

I look forward to reading your blog entries as they are, for lack of a better term, so sincere.
