Are You Going to Skip Tomorrow?
A note found near a playground in the 1980s. It occurs to me that in the age of texting and such, this is an historical artifact.
Are you going to skip tommorow?

This makes me think back to typing class in high school. The typing book was to the right of the typewriter next to the wall, next to the window. For a full year I carried on a nearly daily conversation with a total stranger who sat at that desk sometime during the day. Each day I'd pull the book back to see what message they'd written on top of the desk under the book, then I'd respond to what they'd written, they'd do the same. Only when the janitor decided to clean the desk did we lose everything. Probably a good thing or we'd have soon run out of space. I never found out who the other person was. I'd completely forgotten about it until seeing this note.
