I got into Journaling a few weeks after Mom found me that Christmas Night. She said it’ll be a big help in figuring out what happened to me, and she was right. I’ve compiled part of my entries with dramatized scenes written by a good friend of mine, Daveykins Foxfire, to create his first book and the official report of my solved mystery. It’s entitled, aptly enough, Lost Boy Found.

After the mystery was solved and I went on with my life, I found that Journaling has an additional use. I’ve discovered that, since I was one of Peter Pan’s Lost Boys for fifteen years, that I have contracted some of Peter’s abilities. This include his ability to fly, a quicker healing factor, and an aging process that’s all but frozen. That last part would have it’s moments, and I’ll be the first to admit it. Fortunately I caught his snarkyness but not his humility.

I also worry about whatever or not I’ll have Peter Pan’s memory problems. Or as some would say the lack of a memory. Peter can forget pretty much anything he wants to. The more traumatic the quicker. Some people envy that. Me? I’m worried that I might forget something I’m going to need later! Hence my habit of having a notebook around to write everything that’s in my head on it. Once it’s on paper, I can go on with my day with confidence knowing where that memory’s at, so I can find it later when I need it.

My former captain never had the need of writing things down. Literary skills weren’t as much a requirement in his life, although he does appreciate the skills. There are always moments where a brainy Lost Boy is appreciated. Especially when one such brainy kid makes adventures for him. But that is for another tale.

In a moment, I’ll be sharing more parts of my journal that deal with myself, my family and friends and the world around me. Las Vegas is a very happening town, and there’s always something going on here. You’re going to find me posting a lot of cool things I’ve found in the future. Keep in touch :)
