pslee...leeps...sleep...eepsl...epsle...sleep

This is my favortie pillowcase. Sadly, after almost 20 years of faithful service, the seams have gone. Happily the seams can be repaired just as soon as I am near a sewing machine. A few monts from now this pillowcase will be back in service.

What makes this my favorite pillow case?

It was a high school graduation gift to me from one of the people I love most in the world. She kept the sheets, but this came from her bed. We spent or high school years lounging on these sheets, and I would amuse myself by trying to read them aloud. Now my son and husband are the ones who laugh at me as I attempt to pronounce "pslee", but the memories are still very sweet.

It took me a moment as I thought, "wait, didn't I have those sheets?" and then I remembered. Pslee, leeps, eepsl, etc. Surely it must be threadbare by now. You are just as cool now as you were then. Pslee dear friend.
