I’ve been thinking a lot about the past recently. So much so, that I paid a visit to my dear ol’ mum today and shared a lovely cup of tea with her on the veranda. She remarked at the coincidence, as just yesterday, she had found a box of my old toys hidden near the boiler in the basement. Eagerly, I opened the lid, and the memories came rushing back: some old “TapouT” action figures of Charles “Mask” Lewis and his Ferrari, Anna Anisimova in her yoga outfit, the Green Czar, and the Mask TapouT playset; a photo of me posing with Senator Vitter at the Mormon Endowment Ceremony at Portland State University; some photos of Karen Malina White clipped from “Life” Magazine; and a letter from Ross Douthat, replying to a piece of fan mail I had sent when I was eight. So many memories. So many memories.

Anyway, when I finally made it to Oxana’s house, there was a note on the front door: “Out to Target, picking up a few things – come inside and make yourself a drink.” And so I did…
