You know, you mention someone in the context of being utterly brilliant and you'd expect your mother to say, "Ah, how wonderful that you know brilliant people." But NO. It is not good enough to be brilliant. People have to be IN REAL LIFE too. Because brilliant people on the Internet are OBVIOUSLY liars who are seducing me so that they may kidnap, rape, and murder me. I mean, normal, functional human beings just DON'T talk to sixteen-year-old girls on the Internet, right? No matter how brilliant/wonderful/interesting either party is.

I will NEVER understand my mother. And if anyone else understands what I'm talking about, I will be surprised, because I don't think I expressed that very well.

Asked Matthew (in JEST!) to marry me, and his eyebrows SHOT up. It was quite amusing. Hehehe.

And now Richard's got me thinking about the Peace Corps. Where can I find this questionnaire, so that I may see if it is something I should do?

No school tomorrow, huzzah. Term paper to write, waily waily waily.

Verily I say unto you, there shall be no school for any of this place on the morrow.

Also weekend after next, the brother and the parents all shall be gone. Behold the great truth that both computers shall be free.

Behold the great truth that Bob might be getting some exercise, hmm?

Unlikely. Wanna have a sleepover at your house, though? Pweeze?

I told you! Sectionals!

This was before I asked you in person.

Well, my mother has always and still continues to assume that anyone I know online, even if I actually know them in real life too, even if they live next door to us, is crazy and/or a rapist. I mean...seriously. She's a bit nucking futs herself in that respect. It's a bit tiring when I try to tell her about people, because the nature of my life, having moved around as often and putting my writing out to the four corners like I do, means that a great many of the people I know do not exist anywhere NEAR me.

But still, a mystery brilliant stalker/seducer sounds interesting at least. You should get some credit for picking up one of those.

All the info you need is at the Official Peace Corps Website. You have to be a college graduate to qualify though, so the simple cruelty of chronology is going to keep you out of the running for a little while longer.

Waily waily waily! Alas. At least now I won't be thinking about putting off college for it.

Maybe ALL mothers are a bit odd about the Internet? It seems that way sometimes. The only exceptions are the ones who are involved in the Internet themselves.

Yeah, my mother went through the whole "that person is 40 years old and not who they say they are" phase as well. :rolls her eyes: And milestogo13 can tell you that my Mom is a rather reasonable woman on the whole.
