Wait -- what? I have a very clear visual memory of Chewie getting a medal alongside everyone else. I can see him ducking down farther than the others to have the ribbon placed around his neck, the medal nestling in his chest fur, the little rrrRRRrrr of satisfaction he lets out.... DID I DREAM THIS?

I had one all through grad school and for years after, ditched it in an ill-advised de-cluttering phase (clutter is the BOMB), and then one day when I really needed to glue something I bought another copy on Abe.books -- magnifying glass included

How else are you going to weigh down things you’re gluing

This was mostly to make sure my sister and I knew how ungrateful we were for our Holly Hobbie dolls or whatever 😆

My dad grew up without electricity or indoor plumbing, walked 3 miles each way to a one-room schoolhouse, etc. Not my grandad — my dad. He and my mom used to argue at the dinner table over who had less when they were growing up

LOL I love the phrase "more than one." Like maybe there are 10, 15? Who knows? And maybe one or two are in storage somewhere
