And I'm going to rediscover my love by revisiting an old journal. The one I started the day I entered Iraq back in '03. The writing is simple and easy. I only had a chance to whip it out late at night as I was about to try and sleep. At that point I was often exhausted and in some crappy cramped place. Most of my writing won't make sense to you. I just wanted to jot down a few triggers about images and feelings I didn't want to forget.
The journal was a simple black journal about eight-inches long and five-inches wide. It was given to me by my wife because she knew it was just perfect.
