A few years ago when I was in high school, still a teenager, and generally confused about everything including the fact that I was confused-there was one thing very clear to me. This thing was the fact that I couldn't spell words with i and e. I could not spell friend, or recieve or any of that crap with i and e. And my classmates found it strange, that I wrote perfect essays and lost points for spelling things. Before finals they wrote a list and taught me these words, selflessly as if they didn't have bigger fish to fry. They taught me how to spell friend.
And tonight I am delirously happy. The cup runneth over and spills lines of deliciousness all over the place. Yes, lines of deliciousness!! On nights like this when the lines of deliciousness are all over the place I think about you. The friends who taught me how to spell F.R.I.E.N.D. I still struggle with the rest of the ie words, but today I can still spell friend.
no, the heart doesn't forget.

LOL that's funny (in a nice way) and interesting. Very interesting. Still how true that the heart will not forget some of these things. I think the heart is a beautiful thing. You know what I mean? So is the mind that decides to learn to spell some words and ignore the rest :)
Aaaahhh... I remember those days, confused about being confused. Then getting confused a little more.
Thank God for friends huh?
