Really the most satisfying part of doing the entire project was hearing answers that surprised and delighted with their unexpected quality. That’s what made the best questions so good; they were broad enough so that there weren’t a lot of duplicate responses, and the answers were really and truly personal. This week’s tape is a good example of that.

I’ve run through all my top-of-mind anecdotes and stories about Ralphie’s at this point. I think this will probably be the last regular posting about the project for a while. I want to take some time to sift through the folder of Bop City letters and communiques, and also give some consideration as to how I want to present this in the future.

The artifact this week is another item compliments of the ex. This was a one-of-a-kind item that’s lived in a place of honor in my house for years. It’s functional, although since my need for a pincushion is occasional (and the occasion hasn’t yet presented itself), it remains in its original pristine condition.

This week’s MP3 is pure bliss; the answers to the question “What was your best summer afternoon?”
