2:14 pm	@@@@@Perhaps I was in someone's living spaceI ran @@@@@Perhaps I was in someone's living spaceI ran through the memory of my recent journey in my head, wondering how I could have gotten so turned about Meanwhile, I listened for some reaction to my crashing fall, holding absolutely still in the darkness There was nothing–no reaction, no soundIt was only dark and stuffy and humid, as it always was, and so silent that I knew I must be alone Carefully, trying to make as little noise as possible, I took stock of my surroundings My hands were stuck in somethingI pulled them free, tracing the contours of what felt like a cardboard box–a cardboard box with a sheet of thin, crackly plastic on top that my hands had fallen throughI felt around inside the box and found a layer of more crackly plastic–small rectangles that made a lot of noise when I handled themI retreated quickly, afraid of drawing attention to myself I remembered that I'd thought I'd found the top of the holeI searched to my left and found more stacks of cardboard squares on that sideI tried to find the top of the stack and had to stand in order to do so–it was as high as my headI searched until I found the wall, and then the hole, exactly where I'd thought it wasI tried to climb in to ascertain if it really was the same place–one second on that bowed floor and I would know it for certain–but I could not get any farther than the openingIt, too, was crammed full of boxes Stymied, I explored with my hands, moving back out into the hallI found I could go no deeper down the passageway; it was entirely filled with the mysterious cardboard squares As I hunted along the floor, trying to understand, I found something different from the crowd of boxesIt was rough fabric, like burlap, a sack full of something heavy that shifted with a quiet hissing sound when I nudged itI kneaded the sack with my hands, less alarmed by the low hiss than by the plastic crackle–it seemed unlikely that this sound would alert anyone to my presence Suddenly, it all came clearIt was the smell that did itAs I played with the sand-like material inside the bag, I got an unexpected whiff of a familiar scentIt took me back to my bare kitchen in San Diego, to the low cupboard on the left side of the sink (Comment on this)

2:22 pm	@@@@@Under any circumstances it would have @@@@@Under any circumstances it would have been an unwelcome alliance; but to have it so clandestinely formed, and such a period chosen for its completion, placed Julia’s feelings in a most unfavourable light, and severely aggravated the folly of her choiceHe called it a bad thing, done in the worst manner, and at the worst time; and though Julia was yet as more pardonable than Maria as folly than vice, he could not but regard the step she had taken as opening the worst probabilities of a conclusion hereafter like her sister’sSuch was his opinion of the set into which she had thrown herself Fanny felt for him most acutelyHe could have no comfort but in EdmundEvery other child must be racking his heartHis displeasure against herself she trusted, reasoning differently from Mrs Norris, would now be done awayShe should be justified Crawford would have fully acquitted her conduct in refusing him; but this, though most material to herself, would be poor consola396 Mansfield Park tion to Sir ThomasHer uncle’s displeasure was terrible to her; but what could her justification or her gratitude and attachment do for him? His stay must be on Edmund alone She was mistaken, however, in supposing that Edmund gave his father no present painIt was of a much less poignant nature than what the others excited; but Sir Thomas was considering his happiness as very deeply involved in the offence of his sister and friend; cut off by it, as he must be, from the woman whom he had been pursuing with undoubted attachment and strong probability of success; and who, in everything but this despicable brother, would have been so eligible a connexionHe was aware of what Edmund must be suffering on his own behalf, in addition to all the rest, when they were in town: he had seen or conjectured his feelings; and, having reason to think that one interview with Miss Crawford had taken place, from which Edmund derived only increased distress, had been as anxious on that account as on others to get him out of town, and had engaged him in taking Fanny home to her aunt, with a view to his relief and benefit, no less than theirsFanny was not in the secret of her uncle’s feelings, Sir Thomas not in the secret of Miss Crawford’s characterHad he been privy to her conversation with his son, he would not have wished her to belong to him, though her twenty thousand pounds had been forty That Edmund must be for ever divided from Miss Crawford did not admit of a doubt with Fanny; and yet, till she knew that he felt the same, her own conviction was insufficientShe thought he did, but she wanted to be assured of itIf he would now speak to her with the unreserve which had sometimes been too much for her before, it would be most consoling; but that she found was not to be She seldom saw him: never aloneHe probably avoided being alone with herWhat was to be inferred? That his judgment submitted to all his own peculiar and bitter share of this family affliction, but that it was too keenly felt to be a subject of the slightest communication This must be his stateHe yielded, but it was with agonies which did not admit of speechLong, long would it be ere Miss Crawford’s name passed his lips again, or she could hope for a renewal of such confidential intercourse as had b (Comment on this)

Why did they?
