Letters from the Inside, Justin Barber, #5

I had not heard from Justin Barber for a long time. He had stopped writing so this Christmas I sent him a Christmas card. Turns out he had been punished and all his mail was taken so he had no record of my address. In case you have forgotten who he is and what he is in prison for you can read about him HERE.

Kelly,

Your card arrived today. Thanks for thinking of me. It was a little eerie receiving your card this evening because I was thinking of you earlier today. In passing, I watched a few minutes of a tv show called Real Housewives of New York. Of course I thought of you even before learning that one of the personalities on the show is named Kelly.

I've missed your letters as well. You always sent interesting things. I haven't written you because I lost your address some time ago. I was placed in disciplinary confinement earlier in the year. During that process many of m personal belongings "disappeared" including all of your correspondence. For some reason I had never written your address in my journal, so when your letters disappeared, so did your address. Your pictures were lost too, except for one of you wearing a sexy black dress and a "Happy New Year" tiara. I'm looking at that pic. while I write this.

I hope you're well and enjoying the holidays. You've had plenty of snow lately, but I don't know if it arrived in time for a while Christmas.

I'll keep this short in order to post it in the morning. I hope you'll write soon and catch me up on your life.

Happy New Year,

Justin
