Great Idea

I really look forward to getting my copy of Real Simple in the mail each month. I think it's full of cool ideas, recipes, you name it. 
Last night while reading the April issue, I came across answers to this month's featured question, "how do you stay connected to the people you care about most?" and was struck by one response from a lady in Houston, TX. She said that she shares a journal with a few close friends, keeping it for a few days, filling it with whatever moves her (i.e. cards, ticket stubs, photos) and then mails it on to the next person.  I thought this was such a great idea. Not that blogging doesn't help me stay connected to those I love, but I think it would be so exciting to open up a package in anticipation for what could be in there next. And the women I know are very creative so the thoughts and ideas would be great to receive. 
So ladies, who is with me? E. and A. I'm thinking of you two in particular!

I'm in! That's a great idea, Jack.

Instead, how about we find a pair of jeans that magically fits us all and allows us to go to Greece on vacation together! (Sorry, I love that Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants...) If the pants idea doesn't work, I'm in for the journal. I will need to start doing and thinking interesting things so that I don't just mail random work paraphernalia (sp?).

I would love to see the pair of pants that fits Jackie and me, both. ; )
