...Wow...

So I get into the car to go home for the weekend, and the first thing Dad says to me is "Alex, I read your paper" [this would be the Slip'n'Slide O' Magical Healing paper] "and I wanted to tell you... Thurber? Benchley? They've got nothing on you."

I am still in shock. Dad doesn't flatter. He only says exactly what he thinks.

I think he thought I was wasting my time [just a little bit] with majoring in Creative Writing, but now he wants me to start considering publication.

I am still in shock.

Happy shock, but... shock nonetheless.

Squee! Yay for Dad. Why doesn't it mean that much to you when I tell you how good you are? :]

Before you get off from spring break you see... The Ring.

[The low creepy whisper thing? Yipe. Shivers down my spine, I kid you not.]
