Whats new...
All By Ourselves from the album "Between The Bridges" by SloanSo yesterday was pretty fun. I found out that I had a drawing test for Seneca at 6:30, Tues., on Monday at 10 o'clock. Also, I had to pick up my birth certificate info from home, so that pretty much took the whole day. My girlfriend, Shona - still a weird sentence - drove me home to Lindsay, and we were able to rummage around my house while my family was away at school or work. It was pretty fun, actually, digging up all my old crap, explaining it all to an outsider. All the stories behind pictures and other assorted pieces of junk (like papier mache chickens) that you take for granted somehow become interesting pieces of history, your own personal history. I never really considered mine to be particularly special or unique, but it turns out it is. Not everyone had a homemade Turtle Blimp, or Turtle Van, or Bat-Cave (which is NOT, most emphatically NOT, a dollhouse.) Not everyone's dad has anti-gravity boots, and not everyone's mom takes spectacular photographs, frames them, and then stashes them in the dining room. There's the old cliche "You can never go home again," which is true, to an extant, which is how all cliches become cliche, ... but you can always visit it and see how it, along with you, has changed.
