Well let's see, I guess I'll have to proffer a child memory first, to inspire you onto a train riff. I know it'll just come out sometime this week.

For me it's a very girly memory, so don't roll your eyes, guys. Anyway, I read Gone with the Wind when I was 10. I did that because my mother said it was going to be too hard for me to read so I decided to prove her wrong. I remember curling up in my big reading chair and being completely baffled at first because I didn't know what a "Scarlett" was. Anyway, I liked the book a lot. My best friend and I found a house in our neighborhood, very big, and set way back with a long driveway and very wooded grounds. I decided to call it Tara and we took some of our favorite possessions and made a burial ground there and call it magic and make wishes etc. We'd go to "Tara" after school and play. Nobody at the house ever noticed.
