I Found You there. I Found You there among copies of the Holy Bible. I Found You there among copies of Cook Books and Hair Style Magazines. You Were of Red Paperback Cover and Binding. You Were 8.0 x 5.3 x 1.2 Inches in Dimensions. You, within You there Were 448 Pages. The Categories Vast. I Purchased You for $1.25. I Purchased also a Single Package of Five V Ball Grip Extra Fine Pens. The Colors were of the Primary Source. Two Black Fine Pens, One Red Fine Pen, One Blue Fine Pen and Finally One Single Forest Green Fine Pen. The Amount of the Pens $2.35 after Taxes. I Returned Home. I Started a Load of Laundry. I Placed Dirty Dishes into the Hot Watered Sink. I Boiled a Pot of Hot Water for My Hot Chocolate. Finally, I sat down at my Office Desk. I Placed You in the Center of my Desk. I Placed the Hot Water to the Upper Left Corner of my Desk. I Placed the Five Pens to the Upper Right Corner of my Desk. I Consider Myself a Great Perfectionist, so of course I had in my Possession a Single Ruler. I would use this Ruler to Cross out Your Words. I Hate to Risk Creating Undefined Circling to Highlight Your Words. I Have Lost Countless Minutes and Hours with You. I Have Lost Countless Days and Weeks with You. And I Will State Freely and Proudly that I Have Lost Months with You. You Have Given Me Comfort when the Weather Outside was Cold and Harsh. You Have Given Me Comfort when the Snow Fell Treacherous Inches. You Have Given Me Comfort when the Rain Fell without Mercy.
