"We are the kids of the future."

-Alec

You know how they say that, after awhile, old married couples begin to talk and look alike? That makes the most perfect sense to me. I find myself taking on some of my friends' habits all the time.

Take Kelsey, for example. We've been married for nigh on two years now, and I know I've changed because of her. I often find myself using Kelsey expressions when I speak, or taking on a Kelsey tone of voice, and I've developed a great liking for waving at passing cars. Yesterday when we were all singing Tainted Love on the metro...that was great, and I didn't even think about it then. But I realise now (yes, that is a Kelsey expression) I would probably not have done that before I knew all of you.

Also, I think I should talk about my brother's socks. Emotional attachments. He never takes them off. Occasionally -- very occasionally -- he will change them, but never-and-I-mean-never try to pull them off his feet. He sleeps with socks on. He sleeps with socks on in the summer. I love socks -- I have more pairs of interesting socks than I do any other articles of clothing -- but I really only wear them when I have to put on shoes, and I wear sandals whenever possible. My brother avoids sandals.

Sorry. Had to pause to pull my socks off. They're nice new knee socks that actually stay on your legs without slipping down. I have black, grey, and (yes, Ariel) white. I'm not as crazy about blue, although I have an old pair of those.

Anyway. Jacob made me laugh at lunch today, which of course is not unusual in the slightest. I had several subs, although Gordon was, unfortunately, there. I'll rant about the assignment we've been given later. After school Alicia and I hung out at the church and took pictures. I'm sure Ariel got a great role, and hopefully Jocelyne is well.

I'm sorry I've been neglecting e-mails/msn/virtually everything else on the planet, including my new sheet music. It's this horrible langue maternelle thing. And math. And Shop. I am so failing shop, which is a shame because I like it.

Also it looks like I'm going to have to choose between photography (which I really like) and the job the Mo-West Children's Library offered me on Fridays (which I've been hoping for pendant des annees).

I really wish I could post a picture, but it's not working. I'll try later.

I'm not just your actor. I have my own play.
