Been so long since I read that I had to look it up… sad… lately I’ve noticed some things are gone, just gone, things that had been there, tucked away for so very long, so long I thought they were safe and hadn’t bothered to check up on them. And now – poof!
It helps to have people around with shared memories. But it really shouldn’t be children as they seem to think your memory lapse is a sign of your impending simpledom… and I’m not entirely sure they are wrong…

Makes me very sad. Reminds me of Mrs. Haversham.

Oh no. That’s why you don’t ever check, just keep telling yourself that it’s there somewhere…
