The New Logger
Sunday, December 7th, 2008I got a kewl new logger for my birthday! Whaddya think?
My "new" (used) manual typewriter
OK, so I don’t really plan on logging with it. It’s just a nostalgia kind of thing, I guess:
While I was serving as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (a.k.a., The Mormons) I bought myself a little fire-engine red, manual typewriter. I loved that little thing, German key layout and all. I even got pretty good at typing on it—that means typing without many errors, something nigh unheard of in today’s culture of “the easy backspace.”
I have but one regret, regarding that typewriter. As it had a German key layout, I figured I should probably leave it in Germany for the next missionary who wanted a typewriter to use. I wish, wish, wish I had brought it home with me.
My Sweetie found this one for me on eBay, and surprised me with it for my birthday. Thanks so much, Sweetie! Who knows, once I have a real shack, it might just find its way down there, and I might even really do some logging with it. (Don’t hold your breath, though.)
