Things no longer part of her world that she missed: programs at movies, enough snow in the winter to count on a white Christmas, Love Boat episodes, talking on the phone to a girlfriend late into the night, a really great record store, owning a dog, a sunroof in the car, summers watching the flicker of the black-and-white television on the front porch, growing vegetables in the backyard, belonging to a small town, getting a new school wardrobe at the end of August, kickball, a hammock, tabletop Ms. Pacman, daily Foxtrot strips, Silly Putty cartoon faces from the Sunday comics
