Life and a Phrase.

Somebody once told me she feared becoming ‘an object of faded regard.’ I wonder where she got that phrase from. Did she pick it up somewhere, or write it herself? If the latter, I’m truly impressed. So succinct and perfectly descriptive. A real writer’s phrase. Here it is again:

An object of faded regard.

Exquisite, especially when it might well be apposite.

Yes, it was mine.

Hello, by the way. I'm sorry for the delay. I've been disgustingly busy... I'm burnt out.
