Isn’t it weird what you find when you google yourself? Lord only knows what that ouija board thing was about. I think I’ve got a diary entry somewhere about “A Wrinkle in Time”.

Hi Melinda! I remember the ouija board at your house giving us repeated messages by the characters of I Love Lucy. Also, a lot of nonsense words.
