Comments on: the great legitimizer http://carmemily.com/2009/09/30/the-great-legitimizer/ Carmen and Emily started this blog to commemorate their long standing friendship. In February 2010 Emily joined the Navy and hasn't had reliable internet since. While Carmen wistfully awaits contact she has decided to only post pictures of the sky until Emily's return.

Hopefully someone is already working on this but if not, I'm sure you could get some funding and only work on that for the rest of your life (because it really would take that long). You'd be famous forever if you really did that. They'd call it the Hawkins Romance Dictionary. And in the last minute that you finished it, you are 99 years old and can barely see, you write the last word on the last page... and then a computer program is invented that completes it in a minute - Oh! man! Thats just like those old Twilight Zones. No seriously, I think instead of writing the dictionary you write a fiction novel about a girl who writes this dictionary - just think of it! it could have love and loss and intrigue and spies and best of all a bizarre and encompassing love of words that brings the greatest of heights and the greatest of tragedies with it. Oh geez, it practically writes itself. You better get on it. Ah thats a beautiful vision, i love it.
