Jay do you write? Do you have a book in you

I think I could have a book or two in me.

I've been toying with the idea of writing something. I think I write ok, and I have a good imagination. What kind of fiber art?

Natural fiber art. I make my own yarn, felting, knitting and weaving.

If I ever wrote an autobiographical piece I think I'd title it "Confessions of an Under Achiever"

that sounds time consuming.

I was hoping it was about all your experiences.

My home spun and dyed yarn.

I would like to do that, but I don't think I remember enough. I did however decide the other day I was going to try to recover more memories. I actually went to sleep with that intention and had an interesting dream...least I thought it was interesting. In the dream I was walking through a park, and saw some trash scattered on the ground. I picked up the trash and noticed a small waste basket, which was quite full. I tried to throw my trash in it, but it just fell on the ground. I then noticed a very large trash can not far away, which had a lid on it so I couldn't see in it. The dream ended with that. I think the trash I picked up was symbolic of my scattered memories, and the big trash can perhaps contained a lot more of my memories.
