Yep, that's pretty accurate.

OMG Bonnie - that is so true!!!!!!!!!

And it's getting closer and closer to FOOTBALL SEASON!! WOoooHooooo. Vicki and I call it our annual temporary divorce

Well, I'm going to use it - lol. I don't use that very frequently at all, but I laughed for that one.

The key - don't think to hard.

That would be Kansas basketball for me, and the last part won't come true for awhile.

Speaking of which...I had to keep a several-times-daily journal for my counselor ONLY...but the wife HAD to get into it, accused me of "spying on her" (what ever happened to threapist-client confidentiality?)...

To get around the snooping, I eventually had to use German written in Sutterlinschrift or English using Cyrillic characters, and for some pages I resorted to "Napoleonic Code" (writing backwards in German)...it got ugly after that (Not to mention having to decipher each page in session for the record...)

Speaking of German writing and printing styles, I happened to get a book from my German teacher about electricity that was printed in Fraktur. It's somewhat difficult to read at first (for a while I misread G's and S's, tz's and ess-tsets, and f's and s's), but it's not too difficult to get used to after about a half an hour to an hour of reading. Now the Gothic script, that's difficult to read. There is a copy of a page of Gothic text towards the end of my Intro to Gothic book and it's on the verge of being unreadable (partly because of the poor quality of the manuscript and of the copying).

WidreMann,

I became adept at reading/writing in Sutterlin and/or Fraktur when I spent 13 years as a WW II reenactor; eventually, I began the practice of filling out German Army paperwork...the sort carried by the average soldier, for individual reenactors. This included having special rubber stamps made, having the inks blended per period usage, special pens, even researching individual unit's "Feldpostnummer" to be placed on some of the stamps.

It turned out to be a lot of fun for me...especially with the unbelievable amount of papers required for each person ("Wehrpass, Kennkarte zugleich Personalausweis, Fuhrerschien, Passierschein, Bordellschein", etc., tailored to every individual's modern profile and specifications, then "backdated" to period).
